Mmmm no fair, Launchpad constantly being the head empty comic relief rubbed me wrong too. Sure he's not the brightest bulb in the original, but... none of them are, that's the joke, and he had plenty of wry asides and moments of "gee DW, I never would have thought to do it that unreasonably convoluted way, I would have just done [something much more obvious and sensible]!"
In contrast, I loved that he was the one who reached Starling, and was the one who helped encourage understanding between DW and Gosalyn. Yes! That's Launchpad :)
