  After 40 years, Mumm-Ra has a new real name — Ra-Mese-Mi-Atumu — and an origin that is surprisingly good. What hits harder for you: the cartoon&apos;s mysterious origin, the Wildstorm advisor angle, or what Shalvey just did?<br>— Tim

  Ah, how I wish that Thundercats 2011 had been a success. And that Thundercats Roar stayed a fever dream.

  I was surprised by this. I wasn’t searching for anything about Thundercats, and yet this appeared in my feed. I’m 52, and not a comic guy. But I was definitely into 80s cartoons like a lot of guys my age. So of course I was into this show. And I’m surprised by how good I thought this was.

  I always liked to think that Mumm-Ra was a corrupted thunder cat

  I always thought Thundercats were Aliens and Mumm-Ra was a native that was just defending his home world from these weird cat invaders.

  Having a scenario in which friends SHOULD have helped one another, but the mistrust from the evil one, lead to a great injustice. A breaking that causes the transformation. Wow, this is exceptionally written.

  Original series thundercats was always a must after getting out of school. Thundercats, Godzilla, sailor moon, reboot, pirates of the dark waters. Cartoon Network had a nice power block back then between 2-4 central time
