I’m not sure if this counts as a spoiler but I marked it as such, just in case. After watching the first ep of season 2 a few times, I started wondering why didn’t Angstrom ask Cecil for help with his project? He’s not doing anything evil/unethical. He has a good idea that could potentially work and solve a lot of issues across dimensions, so I don’t think Cecil would decline. They could then just use the Mauler twins in exchange for more comfortable prison environment and better food or cutting their sentence in half or something like that. The only reason I think Angstrom might not want this is because Cecil would have him " on a leash ", but even then, it’d be the path of least resistance and bloodshed. Is there something else I missed or a canonical reason I didn’t realize?
Yeah, it doesn’t make any sense to me either why he’d use the Maulers of all people to help him.
It’s because he’s a pacifist, he wouldn’t want to work with Cecil because he wouldn’t want to use his powers for military/violent purposes, which Cecil would want him to do.
As to why he would choose to work with the Maulers instead I would imagine his plan was to betray and abandon them somewhere they couldn’t do any harm
The GDA also works with projects regarding dimension travelse, we get to see that in Brit side comic, but they have engeniers doing that, not a single madman. No way Cecil Will allow that under his watch. A lot in stake
Cecil isn’t known for being honest. Second he said he’d free Mark. He’s desperate enough to get out, why would he lie to the one man trying to free him?
