Description The beast that is Sycorax. I didn't come up with the name, only the the rough concept. Todd Casey was the one who really locked onto what made the story work with Mumm-Ra transforming into a creature. Fun episode overall!

Mumm-ra puts all his effort into a big game-changing scheme like shoving his soul into a giant monster's body, and then most of the episode is centered around a comic relief character. Then Godzilla parody.
That episode had a very 80's feel to it all around, come to think of it....

The spindly arms, hunched posture and beergut make it look a lot less dinosaurian than the design the ultimately went with. Not sure which I prefer, really. I like how this design makes it seem more like a totally independent creature, like a true demonic horror. But the idea of a boneheaded, demonic T.rex is pretty hard to resist too...

I think the face is my favorite part. It has a sort of challenging grin built into it.

I'd want to keep that in my backyard XD

Sycorax just makes me think of Kingdom Hearts II....

It'd make a great Heartless.

Sycorax is named after the mother of Caliban from The Tempest, correct?

In this episode in the minute 00:07:40, when Leon-O is fighting with sycorax; you used a part of old Thundercats' intro!! That was for any reason, Or just to honor old thundercats?

PD: Sorry about my english...

I liked the design of this one, too bad he's gone now. Mumm-Ra could have used him as a pet...or as a mount.

this episode reminded me of the old series, where mum-ra would have a different scheme in every episode, and the thunder cats would have to think of new and creative ways to stop him.

made me very nostalgic.

Fun episode it was, but I can't help thinking it was a little inspired from a certain Japanese monster film, especially at the end. But I'm not complaining.
