Looks like Jackalman’s name is gonna be Kayner (judging from the file name).
How did you beat me to posting this, we literally just put it up! ![]()
I like his look. They did a nice job on him! ![]()
lol I’ve been refreshing the MTVGeek homepage every once in a while all day. lol
Yes I like his new design. Not too far removed from the old one. Kayner is an interesting choice for the name though.

I hope that he retains some of the sniveling personality that Larry Kenny’s voiceover infused in the OS character.
I think I like the name Kayner. I was worried when I heard they were giving them all names, but I think it fits this design.
Jackalman (or should I say Kayner now. Glad that he’s finally got a proper name) looks absolutely cool! Much more of a character you can take seriously and less of a comedy-oriented character. I approve. ![]()
Interesting that Norton cites the shows he watches on The History Channel for architectural inspiration. I like that. Gives the show an air of verisimilitude in the designs. ![]()
Also like how he cites both the old R-B movies like Last Unicorn and the Tolkien adaptations, and Conan the Barbarian as well. Conan especially, as that was just an awesome movie all around (and as I’ve said once before, I’m pretty sure that’s where they got Mumm-Ra’s symbol from). ![]()
Ha! I don’t know about the name Kayner though, that might have just been the guy who sent us the file. I’ll ask.
Fyi to those coming across it now, I changed the file name for SEO purposes so “Kayner” is not there anymore but the original file name was “h015A_Kayner”
Sweet!
I cant wait to see this guy for real ![]()
I asked if they could confirm on the crew tumblr blog. Hopefully they can answer.
So far, I like what I see including the name. Kayner looks much more cunning and a lot less comical. I’m looking forward to hearing what he sounds like this Friday.
Man! Kayner looks awesome. Much better then the original Jackalman design, and I can’t believe I’m saying this, but does anyone else feel he actually looks handsome in a way? That right there is soo unlike the original.
He definitely looks more intelligent and (to me) a bit more dignified.
Hard to infer from a drawing I know but one thing I noticed immediately was his upright posture. Old Jackalman use to hunch over a lot.
all the mutants did that, except rataro. I’m right?
Don’t forget Vultureman!

I like the new Jackalman!
Yes. It makes you realize why this guys the leader of the Jackalmen. Unlike the old one who looked doofy.
Wow, the new design looks great. I’m looking forward to seeing him on the show.
Totally. I’m looking forward to seeing Kayner in the show, especially after I saw this on my phone after getting out of class for the day. Like most of you, I agree that he looks less idiotic and comical, and more menacing, intelligent and more dog-like than before.
