Watts is not replacing Mercruy. He's an entirely different type of snark, one based in intelligence rather than physical superiority. Just because a character "wasn't meant" to do something doesn't mean they shouldn't have done it.

The show was better with Roman in it. It's worse with him gone. As much as I like Tyrian he isn't an adequate replacement.

Just because he's smart instead of tough doesn't mean he's not stealing the same role. just the fact you equate Watts with Mercury tells me you don't know what you are talking about...

Watts is a scientist/engineer/doctor, Mercury is an assassin with just enough know how to repair and maintain his prosthesis... this comparison is like saying Tony Stark is replacing Hawkeye... they have vastly different roles.

Cinder was always the underling of Salem... that wasn't some mystical "tech support" on the other end of the line in Volume 3 she discussed her new powers with, that was Salem. Cinder wasn't even credited with everything Salem has been, nor has Salem been credited with all of what Cinder accomplished.
