---THE ASTRAL PRISON----
Unlike other episodes where the villains have to set a trap or a series of traps for the Thundercats, in today's story we have the Thundercats running straight to the danger for themselves. The reason? They are desperate to free wise Jaga from the hands of evil Nemex who has made him his prisoner in a fortress in the Astral World, something they know to have happened because the Sword of Omens showed it to Lion-0. They know, or they think they know that they should ask the Nether Witch for her help to get into the astral world, unknowing that she is just one more of Mumm-ra's disguises. During the episode we see Lion-0 struggling to free Jaga from Nemex and also liberating an old magician who helped him to get back to Third Earth just in time to help his fellows, the Thundercats, against the Mutants' new weapon: a Thundranium cannon!
We had a fine episode whose only fault may be that it was that a little bit too rapid. After saving Jaga, Lion-0 already had a way to return to our dimension with the help of Brodo, a magician that was once the greatest on Third Earth. Also we were never told how the Thundercats knew about the Nether Witch in the first place and therefore, why they decided to trust her about such a delicate matter so quickly. We could also have had a larger fight when the Thundercats were defending the Cat's Lair before Lion-0 could return. Too bad that creators didn't have five or ten extra minutes.
Funny fact: Well, as seen in other episodes, we are beginning to realize that some Thundercats (like Lion-0 in this episode) sleep with their boots on...I think I am going to stop calling that a small GOOF....... Thundercats like to wear boots while they sleep, that is they way it is!
Thanks for reading, everyone!!!
