Pfft. Let me know when the new series introduces Mumm-Ra. So far I've seen a guy they call Mumm-Ra, but that's in name only so far.

Classic Mumm-Ra is a fantastic character and villain. It's implied that he's responsible for wiping out at least the last civilization on Earth causing the change from Second Earth to Third Earth. He plans, he executes, and he revels in the suffering of others. Also unlike so many characters, he learns from his mistakes. He is ancient and eternal. Technically he could've done nothing and won, as he could merely have outlived the ThunderCats, so all his actions could be attributed to doing it for the LOLs. He is power. Able to go into dreams, raise the dead, shapeshift, and much, much more. He has beaten the ThunderCats without calling upon his Ever Living form. Unlike every '80's cartoon villain, he also accomplished the unthinkable: He killed his nemesis. He murdered Lion-O in an episode (Who was later Deus Ex Machina'd back to life, but still). Also unlike most '80's cartoon villains, Mumm-Ra actually has a winning ratio against Lion-O in straight combat, forcing ensemble action or plot elements to force a tie or withdrawal.

New series Mumm-Ra was a Warlord with a spaceship and couldn't handle a revolt and got trapped in his own spaceship. Or Sunlight. Or bright lights. He seemingly needs wings to fly. He does have a cool car though.
