    Heart, while a terribly defined power, was shown to be able to influence animals to do your bidding in a comic.

    This motherfucker coulda been rollin’ up on a tide of goddamn bears to these engagements. Shit yeah, gimme that ring, I’m headin’ to the closest zoo.

      It’s like how people thought Air Bending was the weakest bending in Avatar, and then we watched a man suck the air out of someone’s lungs.

      Do not mistake the act of reservation as weakness.

        Every flamethrower motherfucker is a badass until they are on the floor, gasping and convulsing for air.

        Air bending weak? Bro it’s the one bending style that doesn’t have an ingrained weakness.

        No water? Fucked.

        No Earth? Fucked.

        Too cold/eclipse? Fucked.

        No air? Well you’re already fucked for different reasons, so unless they develop space travel air benders will never lose their element.

      I mean, we all have hearts don’t we? Who’s up for doing my bidding?

        Do you have a magic ring that amplifies your desire to compel others?

        … Shit, now I don’t know if Ma-Ti needs to wield it, or throw it into the fires of Mordor.

      Now that I think about it, any of the kids could do much more with their power. Fine, "heart" can control animals. But then we have earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis and whatever flamey shit fire can do. Basically if we drop the limitations of the user not willing to go all out, they all get buffed and "heart" still sounds underpowered. Unless it can control human minds too, now we're talking!

        I swear he did something to a guys mind to basically make himself “invisible” by compelling the enemy to not see him as he broke into their base.

        Not a showy use, but still kinda clever and stupid.

        There was a “power glove” episode that did this i think? It gave whichever ring bearer who had it like 100x power with their ring. Of course it was evil, and i want to say it was mai tai and the “heart” ring that won the day, but I can’t be assed to find the episode.

      He’s Aquaman, except he can control not just fish.

      I imagine whoever was forced to do that comic tried to make it as non-sucky as possible.

        It was 90s Marvel. Each issue stank of desperation and cocaine, and it still only got 12 issues.

        ROM got better treatment.

    How the hell is this the only show left that hasn’t been rebooted. It’s pure gold.

      I told my daughter all about it the other day. She said she thought it sounded incredibly stupid. I mean, she’s right. But also, how dare she!

        I hear you can drop off children at fire stations with no questions asked.

      They could definitely redo this show with a modern angle focusing on the real villain causing pollution: capitalist interests. Too often the bad guys in captain planet were actual monsters trying to pollute because “blah blah we’re evil”.

      People will say it’s too woke.
