Beebop TMNT Bebop TMNT - A fictitious pair known as Bebop and Rocksteady are mutant warthogs and mutant rhinoceroses who have appeared as characters in a number of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles media releases. The two characters are henchmen who carry out the commands of Shredder, the Foot Clan commander and main antagonist of the franchise. Both of their titles refer to musical genres: rocksteady is a Jamaican music style that preceded reggae, while bebop is a jazz style.
A significant adversary in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is Bebop often mispelled as Beebop. Once upon a time, Anton Zeck was a human professional burglar paid to take Shredder's helmet. He is now a mutant warthog and, along with his buddy Rocksteady, one of Shredder's hench-mutants. His film debut was in Kuro Kabuto: The Legend.
