Casey Jones (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) - 1987 TMNT Animated Series

1987 TMNT Animated Series

In the 1987 animated series, Casey Jones is a crazed vigilante who goes after all sorts of crime, from murder to littering; apparently, adopting a "Dirty Harry" persona. He never takes off his mask in the series, even when once going undercover in a business suit. This version of Casey does not play as central a role as his comic book counterpart, nor does he have a relationship with April. The two didn't meet until season 7, episode Night of the Rogues. They team-up with each other in season 8, episode Cyber-Turtles! He only appeared in five episodes of the entire series. Casey was voiced by Pat Fraley. In the Japanese version, he was voiced by Issei Futamata and Akio Ōtsuka (NHK-BS2 Version).

Though he is mentioned, Casey Jones does not appear in the Archie Comics Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures.

Famous quotes containing the words animated and/or series:

    Uncle Ben’s brass bullet-mould
    And powder horn, and Major Bogan’s face
    Above the fire, in the half-light, plainly said
    There’s naught to kill but the animated dead;
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Every Age has its own peculiar faith.... Any attempt to translate into facts the mission of one Age with the machinery of another, can only end in an indefinite series of abortive efforts. Defeated by the utter want of proportion between the means and the end, such attempts might produce martyrs, but never lead to victory.
    Giuseppe Mazzini (1805–1872)
