Don't you just hate it when you get home from a long business trip to find your boss has accidentally split off all his evil, who then took over the planet, turned your best friend into his minion and hijacked your corpse before locking all your coworkers up in the walk-in fridge?


Still not clear how the Galadorians didn't notice Mentus moving their entire freaking planet.
"Hey, does anyone hear that? Sounds like some sort of giant engine? And has everything been shaking a lot lately?"
"WHAT? DUDE, I CAN'T HEAR YOU! I'M PARTYING SO HARD RIGHT NOW! WOOOOO!!!"


A fiery pit: A fitting place to throw beings who do, after all, look like they're made of marshmallow goop.
(Though that does suggest Rom's Neutralizer has alternate settings for banishment beyond Limbo?)

... Mentus's general menace is greatly off-set by the fact that he really does look like he was made out of Build-a-Figure parts.
