The leader of the Yeerk invasion of Earth. Almost nothing could be as bad as finding out your mother is Visser One. It is the fourth book narrated by Marco and his third book as sole narrator. Applegate and Michael Grant, is the fifteenth book in the Animorphs series. Although, not a classic from the late 90s, Animorphs is still a watchable show if fans of the book series could get over it's flaws. The Escape, published in January 1998 and written by K.A. The special effects aren't that bad including the morphing sequences with our characters and the music (including the theme song) was pretty decent. The action for this show is pretty amazing. Chapman appears, orders the students to leave, and kills the non-Controller teacher. He didnt want the ability to change into any animal he touches. The Animorphs take Ax to the school as Philip, Jakes cousin, and a Yeerk who controlled one of Jakes teachers is seen dying as well. The Animorphs return in this update of the classic series.Marco never wanted to be an Animorph. Shawn Rushmore did great, Brooke Nevin was good, and the rest were terrific. However, a Controller-policeman kills the free man. With the flaws out of the way, there are some good stuff about this show.

Rachel's animal form was a cat while in the book her animal form was an African elephant, although in this show, she also acquires a lion form and Marco's animal form was a brown rat whilst in the book he never acquired that form. And what a terribly depressing aftermath it is. The rest of the book is about the aftermath. I remembered reading the books I've read when I was a kid and I think I took a view of the episodes of the TV show it was based on, but there are quite some flaws with this film including the part where Tobias revealed that he's the last to morph where as in the book series, he is the first to morph and the part where the Animorphs meet at Cassie's barn after their first alien encounter, they tried out their morphing abilities with Tobias as a hawk. In 120-page The Beginning, the war ends in the second chapter.
