KIM POSSIBLE : SEASON 1 EPISODE 12 – PAIN KING VS CLEOPATRA (2002)



KIM POSSIBLE : SEASON 1 EPISODE 12 –  PAIN KING VS CLEOPATRA  (2002)

In this episode we find out that Ron is really into the Global Wrestling Association and two of its most famous wrestlers are Steel Toe and Pain King. They have a manager Jackie ‘The Jackal’ Oaks who is much shorter and gets made fun of by them when he talks about getting back in the ring. Later an ancient Egyptian talisman is stolen and its wearer is granted super human strength. Of course that doesn’t go without Kim and Ron noticing.

This is also the episode where Kim meets Monique for the first time. Monique works at Cleopatra’s Closet in the mall. She is voiced by Raven-Symone who recently did a stint on “The Masked Singer”. Ron is kind of jealous of Monique since him and Kim pretty much spend all of their spare time together. I think the introduction of Monique in this series is pretty important, because outside of Monique there isn’t anyone outside of Ron and Wade that even seem to like Kim for something other than what she can do for them.

The artwork in this episode is so so, but decent direction and cool scenes throughout. The Jackal is also probably the best villain introduced in this entire series. Unfortunately we only get to see him in action once. I love this series, which is part of why I am reviewing it, but it seems kind of a waste that they had a great villain like The Jackal and decided to give more episodes to villains like Kiligan than him.

Best Line – “Kim, Steel Toe is a guy, steal cage, is well…a cage.” – Ron Stoppable.

I have to give this one a 7 out of 7. There isn’t anything about this episode that I didn’t like. I just wish they had done more of this type of thing. The Jackal is the 10th different villain or group of villains introduced in this series and is one of very few that have mystical powers of some sort.
