Some TMNT stuff really isn't for little kids. |
Herman the Hermit Crab is a mutant hermit crab, member of the Mighty Mutanimals and an ally of the turtles from the IDW turtle comics.
History
Herman began his life as a simple hermit crab, who was for sale in a pet store in New York City, before he and a gecko were stolen by the mutant alley cat Old Hob, and his associate Lindsey Baker injected them with both mutagen and psychotropic compound, to serve him as new recruits in his mutant army in the fight against humanity.
Herman's left claw arm was violently amputated in Desperate Measures, part 1. In part 2, he was seen having surgery for a cybernetic replacement, which was finally revealed in part 4.
Appearance
Herman is a giant hermit crab wearing a green army outfit, his right claw is bigger than his left one and according to his species he uses a waste container as a shell, the container is wrapped to his body like a backpack, which also houses a number of military weapons in it including a 7.62mm mini-gattling gun, grenades, mini missile launcher, anti-aerial artillery, a 4 shot bazooka and submachine gun.
Herman's newer cybernetic claw is metallic and appears equivalent in functionality to his lost biological claw.
Personality and traits
Within the Mighty Mutanimals, Herman fulfills the role of a living tank and support of heavy weapons. All weapons which are hidden in the container are controlled and triggered by the 2 pairs of rear legs inside the dumpster he uses as a shell.
His personality is deeply military-oriented—he considers himself and his comrades all to be soldiers and uses exclusively military jargon in his conversations.
Trivia
- His name and species is likely a pun on the band Herman's Hermits. The name "Herman" also has ancient Germanic roots and comes from herja mann, meaning "army man."
