ext_6388: Avon from Blake's 7 fails to show an emotion (0)
The problem with making The Mandarin like Egg Fu is that a mandarin is a tiny orange, so making someone a giant mandarin with a face wouldn't actually be as evocative of mandarins than it would be evocative of oranges, and I believe the Annoying Orange has the copyright/patent on "oranges with faces and the ability to talk" in the same way DC has the copyright on "giant egg villains" after Sega settled out of court with them. /missing the point

I'm less upset that they brought back silly yellow peril pulp villain #352, than that they seem to be using him to replace the white supremicist/libertarian villain from the extremis story.

Okay, that, and the notion that a pony tail is now "samurai hair".
