6 Snarf
Thundercats
Role: Be-whiskered comic relief, providing hearty (yet hollow) laughs as the end credits roll.
The painful truth: Possessor of the most irritating voice in the world. Ever. Think Shaggy while his voice was breaking, sitting on a washing machine during its spin cycle. His stunted yet bloated frame ensures total combat ineffectiveness, except possibly as bait. The Thundercats are essentially lethal predators in semi-human guise. Snarf is a waddling blob of proteins and carbohydrates. Surely, at some point, instinct would have taken over and had Lion-o and Cheetara fighting over his bloody giblets. Sadly, that episode never seemed to get broadcast.
