 Mother Brain (Metroid) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mother Brain (often referred to as the Mother Brain) is a major antagonist and boss of the Metroid video game series, acting as the cyborg computer of the Space Pirates.
However, the instruction manual for the original Metroid game, the in-game introduction in Super Metroid, and the Nintendo Power comic refer to Mother Brain as the leader of the Space Pirates, with the original Metroid instruction manual going so far as to say that Ridley is actually controlled by Mother Brain.
Whatever the original intention might have been, Nintendo has made it quite clear that Mother Brain is not the leader of the Space Pirates now, but the arguments between diehard fans seem to continue regardless.

One gets the feeling that The Space Pirates would not “enjoy” quite the dreadful reputation that it does, if it had survived intact the purges of the 1970s.

The final nail in the coffin of The Space Pirates is quite simply the character of Milo Clancy.

The pirate talk, "Yo-ho-ho, me slithery-slees!" is top-notch and will inspire young readers to quote the lines long after the book is finished-if an adult is willing to read the passages in a properly piratical dramatization.
The solution to the pirates, once revealed, is hilarious and makes perfect sense even to pre-readers who understand story and set-up that comes in narrative repetition.
But young readers are going to be drawn to the relentless puns and Jane Yolen does a good job of setting the reader up for something surprising to happen (probably involving a whole lot of tongue depressers) without really giving away what the big surprise is going to be at the end of the book.
