Real talk, "Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee (1997)" is one of those videogames and stories that aged like fine wine. Dark in its world building and humor, creative in its unique designs, and ruthlessly honest.

Trok is nothing. He is worthless. Unless we’re talking about this Trok in which case we can a mid to long range fighter who uses his speed and acrobatic skill to dazzle his opponents while chopping them into bits. He’s the Mikey who dances around his enemies with a weapon that could easily backfire but doesn’t due to his sheer skill. Jokes aside, I’d love it if this character was the origin of the insult ”trok” from that Teen Titans episode. Having him be such a menace that name has become shorthand for a worthless thing that causes nothing but harm.
Just look at Slig. What am I supposed to say about Slig? He’s just a guy in a funny hat with the most superhero-esque costume out of the group. I imagine him as a grappler who takes pleasure in wearing his opponents down and killing them slowly. More a torturer than a combatant.
A former member of Black Manta’s Manta Men turned mayor of the sunken city, Sub Diego. Cal is an example of the change superheroes can make despite the need for crimes to continue happening for hero comics to have a point. While you can’t get rid of all crime you can help change a person’s outlook, give them time to pull themselves out of what ’s keeping them down, and help them maintain the changes they want to make in themselves. Cal was drawn to Black manta’s promises of a kingdom for the misused and unwanted. What he was given was just another attempt to enslave a people for the benefit of another. When he saw Manta for who he really was he turned away from his empty promises and would eventually fight for his ideals on the stage of politics. The Manta Men costume is a slightly altered version of Black Manta’s own with a different helmet. I imagine the breathing tubes are something they don’t need but Mantas included just incase he wanted to off a traitor.
A prisoner experimented on by the sorcerer Hagen who combined him with a jellyfish to make a super-soldier. He’s like a magic made version of Robocop. None know who he was before his abduction, and sprinting back to life after having been presumed dead and buried, he has no purpose in life but to uncover his past even if his new body prevents him from returning to it so he joins Aquaman’s court in defending Atlantis while searching for clues. A tragic character like this is a great addition to the AquaFamily and stands out among Aquaman’s already colourful cast. The real gravity to me is how unknown this character is. His look, backstory and abilities make him a great candidate for cameos in anything Aquaman is in. He’s the shadow to AM’s light and could easily fit in with characters like Noble.
Aquaman week 6 pt 2.

Raymond S. Wright III
Raymond S. Wright III’s first love is his family, past and present. Learning about families of the past and helping others find ancestors is his second. Raymond has a BA in German and a master’s and PhD in European History from the University of Utah. Those degrees helped pave the way for careers at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah and at Brigham Young University. He was introduced to the Genealogical Department by an internship offered there which led to a career at the Library, starting in 1972. In 1978, Raymond started teaching part-time at BYU and did so until 1988. In 1990, he was offered a full-time position which he accepted. He worked at BYU until 2003, when he returned to the Family History Library and worked there until 2007. He is grateful for the many friends he worked with in Salt Lake City, Provo, and elsewhere who taught, encouraged, and inspired him.
The Silver Tray Award 2026 is inscribed with the logo of the Utah Genealogical Association and the name Raymond S. Wright III. It is also inscribed "For Publication Efforts and Contributions to the Field of Genealogy."

While battling Slig, a member of Darkseid’s elite aquatic terrorist organization known as Deep Six, Orion’s face is transformed into its naturally brutish appearance. Orion uses his Mother Box to revert it back and then condemns Slig to death.
“Your love of destruction has forced your true face from hiding, Orion!”
