Talk:Isaac Sumdac (Animated)
From MediaWiki
Should we add a voice actor credit for Tom Kenny to this guy, since David Kaye said at his first panel that he's Sumdac? -Rotty 19:45, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
- Any reason his name is "Cadmus" backwards? Some kind of DC nod or something?--MCRG 03:00, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
- More likely I would say it's a reference to the Greek mythological Cadmus (from which DC took the name). He was a king who sowed the teath of a dragon sacred to Ares, they grew into powerful and warlike fighting "men" (sometimes depicted as skeletons) which he feared so much he set them to fight each other until almost all were destroyed. Seeing how Isaac is a "king" of future Detroit and creates artificial men (robots) (perhaps from the "teeth" ie parts of Decepticon tech? ) that's likely where they're going with it I'd guess. Maybe Sumdac robots are something the Decepticons want to use as a new army to take over Earth?--ZacWilliam 10:40, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
As far as the name is concerned, I also think that Sumdac's first name "Isaac" is more than likely a nod to Isaac Asmiov, known as the Grand Master of Science Fiction who wrote quite a bit on robots (he was actually the first to even USE the word robotics). --72.150.81.76 17:13, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
Dr. Quack
Anyone else think he looks like Dr. Quack from Courage?
