That'd be the russian one. She was water if I'm not mistaken.

I always felt sorry for that guy. I mean, you had people which could create floods and huge gouts of flame. But this guy, he could talk to dolphins. Great...

I've got a housemate that finds cartoon characters "fit". He roleplays.

mmmkay I'm going to have to say that there is a serious problem with the logic behind this show.
In that description of 'duke nukem' it claims that he has x-ray vision. but everyone knows that nuclear reactions (like the kind that would be occurring within him if he was radioactive) produce gamma rays! This is clearly a major plothole.
But at least the part about the earth having a supernatural superman-esque avatar brought into existence through the power of magic rings which are largely aligned to the elements as theorized incorrectly by ancient greeks and can only be wielded by specific individuals who represent a statistically unlikely random scattering (demographically, culturally, and geographically) seems to be scientific enough.
And at least it wasn't one of "those shows", like popeye, where the bad guy shows up, and looks like he's going to win, but then popeye eats spinach in every episode and oh what a surprise he kicks bruno's ass for the rest of the show or mighty morphin power rangers where the new bad guy has some amazing plan and its start to work but oh wait the power rnagers "morphed" of all things the last thing you'd expect maybe they glanced over at the name of the ****ing show and thought "hey wait a second" to themselves and so they morph and surprise of surprises they kick the bad guy's ass or like voltron (which the power rangers ripped directly off of those bitches) where the bad guys always have some trick but the thing is they never expect the good guys to do exactly what they did in the last 138 consecutive episodes "oh my they turned into Voltron well oh my god we never planned on that happening I guess we are going to get our butts kicked again," it's not at all like that cause they certainly don't have the same plotline every episode where the bad guys come up with some new evil bad guy scheme every episode (which is certainly not to pollute the planet for no particular reason) which the heroes are completely unable to stop and just when it seems like the good guys are doomed they look over at the show title and think to themselves "'captain planet' eh? Well it sounds crazy but it just might work..." and then summon him and he promptly kicks all their asses like he did in every preceding episode.
Definitely a good thing it wasn't like that because that would have gotten annoying in a real hurry.

you have not hit the fundamental problem here, which is the following: should he be producing x-ray, or for that matter gamma radiation, the direction of the radiation would be away from hin, and a statistically insignificant amount would be reflected in his direction (expectedly so, as the point of x rays is that they go through things) so he would effectively be blind. Unless of course there was a sufficiantly powerful and focussed x ray source behind whatever he is looking at, in which case he would be able to see it then. The problem then, is that with all the nuclear radiation and x rays washing round the area, the entire region around him would almost immediately become sterile... so no baby captain planets....

I think that they tried to explain that as follows:
Quote:
His long-term plan is to turn the world into a radioactive wasteland where he and his kind will thrive
|
i.e., as he and his ilk can only see in this short-wave spectrum well outside the visible range, they want to turn the world into a radioactive (and, as you say, largely sterile) wasteland which would enable them to see all the crap that they had previsouly been running into and stubbing toes on. In terms of plot, the ability to see makes sense as a character motivation, and, in the deeper sense of the human condition, the ability "to see" is clearly symbolic (as the show is quite patently allegorical) of the human moral awakening to the fragile condition of our world.
It's loosely explained in the theme song.
But as to the shift from gamma rays to x-rays, which Feynman tried to explain away by claiming that Duke Nukem's interior was actually rapidly spinning on an axis at near-light speeds, such that the gamma radiation emitted forward from his right side is actually red-shifted into the x-ray range (the forward emission from his right side pushing just slightly farther into the gamma range), other notable physicists (Hawking et al., 1995) have pointed out the obvious flaws in this theory, pointing out that not only do the writers make no mention of any internal spin, he doesn't look like a top, and most damaging of all "you would definitely expect that this super spin would give him powers much akin to the Tazmanian Devil's 'super spin attack', but even at times when the use of special spin powers would be useful, such as in fighting Captain Planet, he never does" and finishes by saying "though this evidence is purely circumstantial, it seems quite conclusive. It is just a plothole."

Radical Edward: what intensity of radiation do you think he would need then? I would think detecting the tiniest amount of disrepency from background radiation is sufficient for simple vision. And if he can control the radioactive emission (think control rods), he would be able to emit short pulses to get a clear picture of the world much like a bat. This would also mean no major DNA damage needs to be done. Possibly, the environmental damage caused could be lowered still using quantum processes.
