People are always giving Ted Turner a hard time just because he built a media empire, owns more land than any other American (true story) and makes a bazillion dollars a year. But he also contributes a shitload to environmental issues and called Christianity a "religion for losers". What we should be blaming him for is garbage like Captain Planet and the Planeteers, which brainwashed young children like me for years. Let's be frank kids, Captain Planet had too many superpowers. He could fly, had superhuman strength, speed, and stamina, invulnerability, super-breath, telepathy, telekenesis, control over the elements, shape shifting, and matter transmutation. Plus the entire show was about saving the environment and recycling. So lame.

And all the bad guys had English accents. And Captain Planet wore a gay belly shirt and had Jerry Seinfeld hair.
Don't you own a hybrid?
Maybe. What does that have to with anything?
My motives for buying that car were purely financial. Now that gas is almost free I wish I had bought a truck.
So...you're saying that his powerset comes close to matching the Martian Manhunter?
Yeah, except he can't be scared by a bad guy smoking a cigarette. FIRE BAD!!!
I was going to say Superman depending on who wrote him, but Martian Manhunter works just as well.
