Just wanted to say that as an American kid who grew up watching Captain Planet and the Planeteers, Wheeler being the one most in need of lessons didn't bother me.

"praying to Chekov (Pavel or Anton, it doesn't matter)"

Lol!

My Favorite Captain Planet Episodes: "Two Futures (Part 2)"

 “Traveling back in time so that he never becomes a Planeteer, Wheeler jeopardizes the survival of life on Earth. When Gaia gives him the chance to go into the future and see the consequences of his actions, Wheeler realizes how much he, along with every individual, contributes to the future of the planet.” - Synopsis taken from Wikipedia

Whenever a story called for a Planeteer to be selfish, short-sighted, or ignorant…nine times out of ten, they used Wheeler. 

Wheeler was, for functional reasons, woefully uninformed about nearly every issue ever addressed in every episode of Captain Planet and the Planeteers. And although it was (and is) probably accurate to depict Joe USA as having a myopic view of world events and international crises, it still kind of sucked for us American kids to see our continental representative serve as the narrative excuse for ecological exposition time and time again throughout the series. 

Wheeler was the Planeteer who wanted to get Linka an ivory necklace for her birthday AFTER Gaia commissioned the group to stop a pack of elephant poachers. Wheeler was the Planeteer who needed to be educated about the rigors of homelessness by getting amnesia after he was mugged in a slum. And of course, most notably, Wheeler was the one team member who ALTERED THE FABRIC OF TIME ITSELF just because he had to cancel a New Year’s Eve party that he was going to throw for all his friends.

Repeat: He messed up the time/space continuum for A PARTY!!!

Okay, so maybe there was also this minor life or death issue at hand where he and Dr. Blight were trapped behind radioactive ice that Cap. Planet couldn’t burst through because it was “polluted,” BUT WHATEVER.

In all honesty, it’s an innocent enough question for him to ponder; a basic “what-if” that even the most convicted souls must ask themselves once in a great while. Would My Life Have Been Different If Only I Had….insert secret desire here.

Unfortunately for Wheeler, for the remainder of the episode he gets to witness firsthand how his decision NOT to become a Planeteer had disastrous effects on the rest of the world in an alternate timeline. The show shifts mood considerably from part one and effectively becomes the Al Gore version of It’s A Wonderful Life, complete with Linka playing "Auld Lang Syne" on her Casio keyboard for the big finish. 

“Look, Daddy! Teacher says every time a Eco-villain’s plans are thwarted, another animal is taken off the Endangered Species List!!!" 

Without Wheeler, the Planet-eam was emotionally (and functionally) incomplete. They split up, and with no one around to stop the Eco-Villains from mucking up the past…the world descended into ecological chaos.

One of the saddest/most effective parts about this episode is seeing the alternate universe planeteers in all their jaded glory. Under the new world order, Gi becomes a hermetic recluse who trusts no bitch, but will help out the occasional dolphin. Kwame is stuck fighting a war against soldiers of fortune who want the only remaining verdant land in Africa. Any spare time he has left he spends teaching kids literacy skills on Reading Rainbow. 

Linka oversees food rations in Russia, where crops no longer grow because the ozone layer has been completely destroyed (of course). Ma-Ti and the rest of his South American tribe are all homeless after their land is rendered barren from over-farming. Oh yeah, and Hope Island becomes a sort of Las Vegas resort taken over by eco-creeps Hoggish Greedly and Rigger. *Sigh* It’s pretty dire. Gaia is even shown dying next to vats of toxic waste.

The one slightly absurd part about this section, for me, is that no matter how many times each his friends express how they DON’T recognize him and DON’T want to help him, Wheeler persists in trying to recruit the subsequent team member. Wheeler has to keep reminding himself over and over again that he never got a chance to know these friends in this alternate timeline.

The ecological stakes also seem to rise higher and higher with each Planeteer as we see yet another way that we f*cked up the planet. For Linka, Wheeler tries to approach her by recalling that she loved birds and could play their songs on her keyboard.

To which Linka replies…

”I used to love that…but, that was DECADES ago. Before pesticides wiped out ALL OF THE BIRDS.“

Yeah. ALL of them. Penguins too, bitches!

Eventually, Wheeler discovers that he really did have a wonderful life, the Eco-Villains’ plan gets foiled, and Linka manages to squeeze in a little promo time to show off her mad Casio skills, praying to Chekov (Pavel or Anton, it doesn’t matter) that Ryan Murphy is watching at home so that she can finally get a part on Glee. Linka truly does rock out "Auld-School” style, but then she tries to spice the mood up a bit by singing one of her traditional Russian folk songs…

Planeteers as The Dragonet Prophecy

Wheeler - mudwing

Gi - seawing

Linka - she was supposed to be the Wings of sky, but it turned out to be an ice/sky hybrid and her hybridity is more noticeable than that of Sunny

Kwame - sandwing

Ma-Ti - nightwing

idk these characters I’m sorry😭 I was meaning reqs specifically of my own characters/ones I like not any random reqs /nm

[taliesin-the-bored]

Sir Kay is what happens when the Planeteers put together their rings without Ma-Ti

Kwame: Earth!

Wheeler: Fire!

Linka: Wind!

Gi: Water!

Kwame: Uh, didn’t we forget someone?

It is too late. They watch in confusion as a figure in antiquated armor rises from the ground.

Kay: With your powers combined, I am Sir Kay!

Linka: Who are you?

Kay: I am one who may endure Fire and Water like no other and grow as tall as the treetops.

Gi: We were trying to summon Captain Planet. Not that we’re not glad to see you. Um. Will you still fight with us?

Kay: Yes, but I will complain constantly and bully the younger ones.

Kwame: Heart. We forgot Heart. HOW ON EARTH DID WE FORGET HEART?!?

A few hours later…

Wheeler: Has it ever occurred to you that you’re a jerk?

Kay: Has it ever occurred to you that you’re me?

Year of the Alice Day 112

This is my first (and hopefully only) one-year project (which will be only 365 days) and this one is Alice's Adventures in Wonderland-themed.

In this pic, Alice (Alice's Wonderland Bakery) has made cupcakes for the Planeteers (Kwame, Wheeler, Linka, Gi and Ma-Ti) to celebrate Earth Day.

Made with Microsoft Paint.

Enjoy! ♠️♥️♣️♦️

Fate: The Winx Saga exists, so here’s my attempt at a dark and gritty live-action reboot of Captain Planet.
