appreciation post for those times Chase Young came to join the fray, but was completely uninterested in the Wu of the day and was clearly just there because he wanted to play with Omi again
The nefarious nitwit called Jack Spicer is a self-proclaimed super villain who, despite his foolishness and neuroses, is a rather brilliant inventor. The lad comes from a wealthy family and has been terribly neglected by his parents, resulting in recurrent panic attacks and a grossly diminished sense self esteem. He has attempted to cope with these difficulties by turning to villainy and hoping to show his worth by becoming the world’s greatest evil genius.
Utilizing a bevy of remarkable self-made devices (including such items as helicopter backpacks, ray guns, and dozens of mechanical minions) Jack has sought out to obtain the powerful Shen Gong Wu, mystical weapons crafted by the legendary Grand Master Dashi. He released the spirit of the evil witch, Wuya, and has aided her in battle against the noble Xiaolin Warriors.
While most frequently a villain, there have been instances where Jack Spicer has shown honor and pooled resources with the heroes so to achieve the superordinate goal of preventing disaster. The good-hearted Omi has seen that Jack is capable of turning away from villainy and has tried to convince him to do so... thus far to no avail.
The young villain is voiced by actor Danny Cooksey in the initial Xiaolin Showdown series and by actor Eric Bauza in the subsequent Xiaolin Chronicles. Jack first appeared in the debut episode of the Xiaolin Showdown animated series, airing on November 1st, 2003.
Your Donnie honestly remind me some much of Jack Spicer from xiaolin showdown, honestly think they would be good friends if not rivals
Sadly I have to say, while their style is kinda close and I can see the connection—Donnie would not like Jack too much…Spicer would probably get along better with one of the Sep!Donnie’s that are more…outright villain coded. Don might be a little skewed morality wise, but he’s still a good kid 🤣. But, hey, Don might get along well with like Clay or Kimiko!
when i was a kid i was obsessed w xiaolin but only for these three characters and id draw fanart of me marrying chase while the main characters were on screen (except kimiko i liked her. i used to ship her and shadow so much.... toxic yuri win)
Did a whole piece and a doodle to celebrate!! This show means so much to me, so I want to go all out for it!!
Here is an alternate version of the doodle I did, I'm not really fond of it 💀 I wanted to include as much as many characters as I could but, I was rushing 😭 Hope you all like it tho :')
I've been utterly fascinated by Good (better? nicer?) Chase design by @lizard-color4 from this post and desperately wanted to know more. Who's this man? What's his story? Why is his hand bandaged? Why is his fashion taste is so much better than Original Chase? And why the hell does his hug looks so nice??
so i um, decided to explore his design a little ;D
also bonus+ sorta?? continuation / my take on the after hug because i really craved more of that
bonus++ a silly doodle of my first attempt on his design because why not
Xiaolin Showdown is so slept on, man I miss that show ;w; such a fun concept and characters, it's kind of a shame it didn't get the same enduring fandom like Danny Phantom did 9w9
I was a Jack splicer guy, but hey I can't fault Skyler for Chase Young, love me a spicy evil dragon man
Edit: Yeah I forgot a whole page, I didn't learn how to draw a panther for nothing dangit!
