Description PLANETEERS: AFTERMATH

Captain Planet and the Planeteers' campaign to clean up the world came to an end when the four older teenagers began losing control of their powers. The rings backfired on several occasions, even causing a few environmental disasters. Eventually, the volatile behaviors of the rings caused Gaia to fall into a coma.

In an attempt to find out why the rings are malfunctioning, Ma-Ti used his Heart ring to probe the minds of the other Planeteers while they slept. Trekking through their unguarded psychic planes, Ma-Ti discovered a great deal of buried animosity and everybody had simply stopped believing in their cause. Ma-Ti's inexperience in this aspect of his power resulted in the dug up secrets being shared among everyone. A big fallout ensues, with the Planeteers using their powers against each other.

Realizing the opportunity to strike, Looten Plunder enlisted the help of several eco-villains who are still active to attack the island. The villains managed to destroy most of the island and her wildlife, among them Ma-Ti's pet monkey, Suchi. As the island is going down, the Planeteers combined their powers to call upon the help of Captain Planet. Their last hope for a savior was shattered as Captain Planet was now a combined totality of the Planeteers' corrupted psyches. After killing the villains within a fiery orb and destroying all five rings, Captain Planet went on to wreak havoc across the world, creating major earthquakes, tidal waves and volcanic eruptions.

With the world on the verge of destruction, the Planeteers came to the conclusion that killing Gaia would be the only way to stop Captain Planet as his powers originate from her. With thousands dying by the minute, the Planeteers tearfully set the comatose Gaia into the icy waters, drowning her. The plan seemed to have worked as the disasters across the world seized, although no one knows for sure if Captain Planet is truly dead. The horrific events forever scared the Planeteers and they decided to go their separate ways.

10 years have passed and the world is in its worst state ever. The Planeteers are now in their mid twenties, in different parts of the world. Kwame, now a police detective in Nigeria, finds his Earth ring hidden in a bag of cocaine during a drug bust. Upon putting on the ring, a psychic message informs him of the task he must take on immediately – Gather the Planeteers.

That's a really nice redesign of the entire character line up!  The progression looks natural, and I could see this look working in an awesome reboot with a dark tone.

Captain Planet: Mad World a 5 part series....

Rapunzel:...and then the L-Wave hit. They were all killed by it. All except Ma-Ti. He was already dead, killed by Malachite. After his soul was freed from the Plot Hole, Hades allowed him entrance to the Underworld, where he rest in Elysium. The others were reborn as different people, in different parts of the Multiverse.

Gogo Tomago: Why are you showing me this? What do I have to do with all of this?

Rapunzel: Gogo...look at the drawing. Look at Gi. Look at her closely.

*Gogo does so, looking at Benjamin's drawing intently*

Gogo Tomago: Well...she looks a lot like me...

Rapunzel: Gogo...she IS you. You are the the reborn Gi.

Gogo Tomago: Ok, so I was a former Planeteer in another life. What about it?

Rapunzel: Ma-Ti's Ring was destroyed in his battle with Malachite...the fate of the other Rings are unknown...Linkara's review....the incident with the Equestrian deers...it reminded me of all of this...I was hoping you could help me figure out where the other Rings are.

Gogo Tomago: I'm sorry, Rapunzel, but I don't remember anything about my past life...and I most likely don't want to. Already as Gogo Tomago I had to escape my past, escape the past that I'm the heir to the Tanaka crime family. That I am...I was...Yakuza. I made a new life from me here. Away from the Tanakas. Away from the Yakuza. I made my own destiny, developing my skills as a scientist to help mankind. Gi looks like a Yakuza. If she is, I don't want her memories.

Rapunzel: Fair enough.

I love it.   I also love what another commentator wrote about them eventually gaining sufficient control over the renewed ring such that they can BECOME the elements they once only manipulated.  This could be explained as a result of being more physically and mentally mature, than when they were teenagers.

That could be developed even further:  perhaps instead of combining to call Captain Planet, they could combine to BECOME him!

I was just watching an episode of Captain Planet and thought how could it would be if the series was renewed- but perhaps updated and maybe a tad on the gritty side.  These Planeteers look great!

I had this idea that the planateers had more control over each of their powers and could even transform into their elements and combine into a joint mind pure elemental Captain Planet, it would be cool if that was the next step.

I thought the show said he was from Ghana?


Then again much of the Planeteers nationalites were screwed over (Linka is from Ukraine but she blurts out Russian exclamations and her name is west slavic for example. I get that she could be from Russia and just be half Ukrainian, half Slavic but it still is confusing xD)
