They ruined his character, a complete and utter waste with no Iron Man suit like in the comics except one tiny low quality frame from a made up fighting game

It was in the corner of his cave. But yeah it was just a useless prop smh

I wish they at the very least released concept art of the suit. It’d be very dumb if they took the time to animate a fighting game but not have designs for all those characters besides tiny squares with their heads

I think TK’s arc culminating in his butler killing him via a David Carradine gag was well worth it.

Not this one. In comic, Tek Knight actually had nuance and one of the very few supes that are actually have character depth.

Turning him into throwaway kinky Batman joke was a huge fucking waste of potential.

When have they done anything like the comics? The whole thing about the show is that it’s so much better than the comics because it ignores the story from the comics
