Pan is one of the lesser-utilized Mythos Cyborgs in Tsuguo Okazaki's Cyborg 009 BGOOParts Delete. He is, in some sense, a continuation of the original manga character.
Appearance[]
As with before, Pan is a young boy with a single horn on his head and the legs and lower body of a bipedal goat.
Personality[]
Like before, Pan is a curious young boy, but he can only communicate in cries of "Ki!" He does not play a very active role in the storyline, likely due to him being useless for combat. He instead remains by Helena or in the background for much of the plot.
Relationships[]
Helena[]
Pan stays close by Helena's side, accompanying her to invade the Super Dolphin.
003/Francoise Arnoul[]
003 remembers some form of Pan from her past, as she is grateful to him for his help much as Helena is to 009. Still, this interaction comes with the unpleasant knowledge that Pan and his fellow Mythos Cyborgs must meet their ends via the 00 Cyborgs in some way.
Abilities[]
Although Pan doesn't get to show off much in the way of new abilities, it can be figured his horn acts the same as before, in being a transmission device connected to his entire nervous system.
History[]
Pan had once been a poor Greek citizen, as had several of his teammates, until he was approached by Dr. Gaia and Dr. Uranus with the promise that he could become like the Gods of mythology and take revenge on his oppressors. He accepted, although his role on the team did not amount to much besides that of a sidekick and messenger boy.
When Pan and his team wound up caught up in the destruction and sinking of Magma Island, he and the rest were bailed out by Hera's teleportation powers and they were sealed away in Gaia's "Zeus System" laboratory for the next 50 years.
One fateful day, the Mythos Cyborgs were re-awakened in part due to Helena's own powers being used to revitalize them to their full strength, under orders of Hera. This would come a bit too late for the 00 Cyborgs, who were tasked with finding this laboratory to destroy it, but now their mission would be to wipe out these artifacts of Black Ghost at whatever cost. This would mean a rematch between the two teams.
Pan did not do much in the ensuing battles, often lingering in the background, though he would clearly wind up as scathed as the rest and become tired of being used by Gaia. Ultimately, he would fall to the destructive power of the robots Athena and Ares, spelling his end as much as his teammates'.
Trivia[]
- While Helena and Apollo are most visible as silhouettes in the panel detailing the team's past, a small boy can be made out at the side, with this presumably being Pan. Little else is known or offered about his past by Okazaki, other than the detail forbidden by editorial that all of these characters were meant to be those of the Jewish Greek population or their descendants.
