#THE THUNDERCATS SERIES#

This character growth was one that many children watching the series could aspire and relate to, and his wicked cool Sword of Omens, Eye of Thundera, and Claw Shield certainly had viewers shouting, “Whiskers!” whenever they saw him on screen. Viewers watched as he mentally grew from a brash yet cunning prince into a wise and realized leader through the help of his friends, the guidance of his mentors, and the constant battles he fought on Third Earth. Because of this, Lion-O has much to learn about being a leader over the course of the series.

During the escape flight from Thundera to Third Earth Lion-O’s suspension capsule didn’t freeze the aging of his body, making it so that he awoke as a twelve-year-old in a grown lion man’s body. The headstrong and childishly fearless Lord of the ThunderCats Characters, Lion-O is the main character of the series. The Protagonists Lion-O Photo credit: Nuno de Azevedo To remind us of the lessons of friendship, respect, and justice that all the ThunderCats first taught us long ago, here’s a complete list of ThunderCats characters. Thus, while the image of Lion-O’s wind tousled red hair and matching red-eyed sword persists at the front of pop culture’s mind, characters like Ratar-O and Jaga have been sidelined by the sands of time. All in all, since the original 1985 ThunderCats run, the Cats’ have had little screen time. This classic tale of alien expatriates finding a new home has been rebooted once before in 2011, but that series was unfortunately canceled after a single season. As the ThunderCats try to make a new home on this strange land, Lion-O must lead his people through a battle with Mumm-Ra, the tyrannical ruler of Third Earth who refuses to let any beings challenge his reign.

In the show, Lion-O and his fellow ThunderCats must recover from a sudden escape from their homeworld Thundera on the tumultuous land of Third Earth. With the constant stream of reboots coming out every year, it’s no wonder that Cartoon Network snatched the nostalgic ThunderCats up for their newest 2019 cartoon Lion-O and the ThunderCats.
