Mantenna is a member of the Horde Force Squad, often the source of villainous comic relief.

The history of Mantenna, like most Horde warriors, is one that is never fully touched upon. We
know that he attended Horde Accademy [13], perhaps one of the most peculiar facts, and that he
may have been the result of a scientific or magical experiment, as was implied to all of the Force
Squad. [45] Like Scorpia, Grizzlor and Leech, this could mean that he didnt always look this way,
but judging by the evidence of his time at Horde Academy, Mantenna is the one to whom this
applies the least.

Mantenna's most specific power is his ability to shoot various beams and rays from his eyes. A
balance distorter ray [01] forces opponents to the ground, his distortion laser [09] stuns victims
and the freeze-beam [90] coincidentally puts them on ice.

These eyes can also help Mantenna to see for long distances and in other directions [03, 38, 62]
and also at attempts to amuse Hordak [13] and in his expression of fear. [36, 67]

Mantenna's original portrayal as a powerful villain [01, 08, 09] would soon die a death in place of
his role as the comic baddie. He was often the subject of ridicule, as a result of his carelessness
in and around the Fright Zone [55] and sometimes for no reason at all. [49] His most prominent fate
would be the inevitable falling down the trap door [first in 13], but even when away from the Fright
Zone, Hordak would find a way to get the better of Mantenna. [29, 36, 69]

Not only would Mantenna be terrified of Hordak, he along with many others, would be scared of
Shadow Weaver [90] and also Catra. [54] As for other Hordesmen, he didn't see eye-to-eye with
Grizzlor [38, 92] and, like everyone else, hated Imp!
