User blog:PJDMAY14/Mars or Mr. D?

I know this may sound a bit weird, but I want to know what everyone else thinks of it. In The Son of Neptune, Mars acted like Mr. D in more way than one. I think Rick sort of repeated a personality here. It did fill in the empty spot in my heart that Mr. D left when he went back to Olympus :)
 * Mars doesn't seem to really care about most of the demigods.
 * Mars gives some of the demigods nicknames ("Centerion Skish-kabob.")
 * And Mars only seems to care about his kid (aka, Frank)

So, thoughts?
