About a Mundo Rework
Well, we all know that our purple hulk is in desperate need of some reworking love (Visual, Lore and Gameplay). If you'd ask me I'd say he almost needs a Sion-Level threatment. (Won't talk much about gameplay here, wrong board for that)
There is also some other thread going around here, but that one is mostly about the VU and not about the story. Now lets take a look at Mundo's lore no?
Somehow it doesn't tell us much, apart from him being a zaunite scientist that did a bit too much "Crazy science" on himself. Oh and maybe that strange sadism part, but that seems like a rather random element to me. Somehow his lore kinda lacks... everything. This is a basis to work on, but not something I would call an authentic character.
Of course there are many possibilities on how to approach the purple doctor and I won't say that I got the best solution here, but what about approaching him more like a "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde"-character? A scientist who's self-experimenting has gone terribly wrong, causing his body to change drastically. Also this would allow us to see Dr. Mundo actually as the one most people tend to forget he is: a absolutely brilliant scientist in the field of biology, biochemics and neurology.
Personally I would love seeíng him reworked into some kind of tranforming champ ("Normal", dude in lab coat -> MUNDO), still preserving the gameplay elements of a hulk but also more with the "Crazy, but brilliant, scientist" - touch.
But maybe that's just my opinion, so what do you guys think about how we shoul deal with Mundo's lore?
