IN LOOVE

'Shadows of our Past' A Rise Fan Comic

Illustrated by @concerningamountofcrows Written and Lettered by @gremlinscomics

Chapter 1: Pages 1-4

Next> (coming soon)

Masterpost

Welcome to the start of our comic 'Shadows of our Past' (or S.O.O.P for short)!

This has been a while in the making with the original idea coming up last summer, but, after lots of trial and error, we're finally ready to start sharing our work!

For some context, this comic will be taking place a couple months after the Krang invasion in 2020. We're going to be exploring our ideas for what might have happened in Season 3 if the series hadn't been put on hold, exploring some new plots and new characters mentioned by the original creators.

Feel free to ask if you have any questions, otherwise we hope you enjoy!

It's here! The beginning of the fancomic that I've been making for a few months now. I started planning this thing almost a year ago, and I am so excited to finally be sharing it. I'll make a proper dedicated side-blog for it later.

Something about ninja turtles and Alex G

For my future boys, I think Donnie became estranged after his little accident

I think he became most estranged from Leo... they're twins, but Donnie's accident caused him some serious emotional disconnect to his family and Leo would take that the hardest.

OG post

Donnies design

EDIT: Lmao it was backwards, fixed it

My take on future Donnie

I'm thinking Donnie gets blown tf up and looses both his legs and some brain function. (also the side of his face but that's unimportant)

He's kind of krangified after the explosion... like he's totally another person...

He's gonna make himself some robot leggys tho I'll draw those later :)

Hey, i just finished your fic "We hope your rules and Wisdom choke you" and man.....I don't know if I'll ever recover from reading that master piece!!! GOSH I LOVED THE WAY YOU WROTE EVERYTHING. This is the best "Lloyd's corruption arc" fic ive ever read (and tbh, probably the best fucking fic ive ever read). Exit Music works really well with the concept. I have to tip my hat to you for the amazing writing...

Is it in your plans to continue with the idea of the ending? (Lloyd training that kid, who i assume is Arin..).

Thank you so much! I’m so glad you enjoyed, that really means a lot 🥹

I have a few concepts written out for the future, with Lloyd training Arin and all (glad you got that it was Arin) as well as a few pieces of art, but at the moment I have another project I’m working on so it may take a while..

Thanks for asking!

Yyyyumy

I want to DECOUR HIW YOU DRAW THE TURTLEY BOOS

So delicious, absolute 5 star Michelin meal

Boom! Orange juice, that's life

Silly Mikey doodles + raph, they're so cool

I added a few points to his design, like gym gloves, in climbing and gymnastics you usually have chalk, but gloves are a bit more efficient since they don't fade.

And a shoulder pad, when I roll sometimes I fly so hard I hit my shoulder on the ground, so he gets protection.

And hey! He actually doesn't look murderous!

Question: should I add him to the bundle with his bros?

ANOTHER THING:

Leo is a red eared slider, which is one of the worlds top 100 most invasive species, which is incredibly fitting for his character asfghk

He causes astronomical issues, not just for society but for the ecosystem 💀

One day I'm gonna kiss the character designers for rise of the tmnt.

Yeah shape theory and all that, it's super neat but IT GOES SO MUCH DEEPER.

Since the beginning of tmnt, the turtles have always been hard to distinguish from each other. Especially in the 1987 show, but all the way up to 2007 movie, the one thing the turtles have really had to distinguish themselves is their color of their masks, their weapons, and usually some minor design changes like the letter on their belts, height, and skin tone. But even those have been subtle.

The 2012 series is really the first tmnt iteration to change up the turtles in a significant way. Not only is their skin different shades of green, but their heights are a more significant difference. Donnie towers of the other turtles, and Mikey's height really solidifies him as the youngest brother.

That isn't where the differences end, though. Raph has a crack in his plastron, Mikey has freckles, and Donnie is much lankier and skinny than the others. The main problem with this though, is that they are still fairly subtle. From behind and without their masks on, it's impossible to tell whether its Mikey, Leo, or Raph on screen. Not to mention, Leo is sort of treated as a 'base', and the other three turtles are just alterations made to his design.

Rise, on the other hand, said "hold my beer."

Not only do rise turtles have the different heights, skin tones, and masks, they have different body types.

And not only are these differing body types useful in telling the turtles apart, they have genuine meanings. So I'm gonna infect your brains with my brainrot.

Starting with Mikey.

Mikey has always been the silliest of the group, the party dude, if you will. Rise uses shape theory to give this playful, young vibe to him. Not only are his markings circles, but so is his head and shell. His design is very rounded overall.

The other thing about rise, is that all their fighting types are different. Their weapons influence these styles along with their personality. Mikey's style of fighting is very acrobatic, very showy. He is very in touch with his sense of balance and the space around him.

It can't be a coincidence that Mikey's body type is also very similar to an acrobat or gymnastic athlete. His muscles are small but compact, and rounded like the rest of him. His limbs are small, but clearly strong and well maintained. Acrobats often have these types of hidden muscles, where they almost disappear when not in use because of the function of them. They aren't using the muscles for heavy lifting or grueling tasks. Acrobats use their muscles for balance and manipulating their own body.

Next is Leo. Unlike 2012 where Leo is used as a baseline for the other character designs, he most definitely has his own unique look. Overall, he's very sharp. His crescent moon markings on his face and limbs, his swords, and his overall stylized body shape leans into this pointed, sharp look.

Leo attacks quick in the series. He is often one of the first to strike, and thinks well ahead in battle to preserve his energy. His battle moves tend to also continue throughout the fight with a large blow in the beginning and end, with smaller strikes in between.

Leo is also the leanest of the turtles, with a small waist and the lithest of the turtles' limbs. All of this points his character design towards a long distance runner. They often start and end races with bursts of energy, and then pace themselves throughout the rest of the race. They have to think and consider their speed. Long distance runners also have very lean muscles. It has to do with the actual proteins in the muscle that make them thinner but perfect for pacing and persevering throughout long lengths of time.

Similar to Leo is Donnie. The disaster twins, as the fandom has named them for being the same age, are the most physically similar. They are nearly the same height and, when Donnie had his battle shell on, their shells are very similar in shape. However, they are still very different. Donnie has a rectangular build with his purple pixel-like markings and big ass forehead. Him and Raph also are the only turtles in rise with full head coverings, and they are also both square shaped.

Donnie tends to put all of his energy into one, well timed blow. Usually using his tech to discombobulate the enemy and then backing off quickly. (The only time this doesn't hold true is when he's fighting with April, where it's only the two of them. However, he still does tend to attack and then back away.) His muscles are the second most defined of the turtles, being thick and bigger than both Leo and Mikey.

For this reason, Donnie I believe is built off of a sprinter. A short distance runner. The perfect match to Leo (the twins ever bro)

Sprinters have to save up all of their energy in order to use it all in one short length of time, often just a few seconds. Exactly how Donnie attacks. Sprinters also have much larger, more defined muscles than long distance runners. I think it has something to do with storing energy and oxygen to be used all at once.

Finally, there's Raph. Raph is big and bulky in the show, with the biggest muscles and is *physically the strongest. He lifts giant boulders and can carry all three of his brothers, April, and Splinter with ease. His shape is a square, with his head and chest being large and boxy. His fighting style is the least ninja-y out of the four, being more related to actually just throwing hands with someone. He fights physically and often times without his weapons, preferring to attack with his body. He gets in the enemy's space and uses his larger size to overpower them. His ability to make himself bigger with his mystic powers furthers this idea. He attacks hard and doesn't let up, not allowing his weaknesses to be exploited by keeping the enemy from never getting a hit in.

I believe Raph is based off of a wrestler or boxer. They fight physically and roughly, preferring to never allow their opponent get a hit in if it allows. Their act of defense is also similar, as boxers generally use their weapon as defense instead of offense. (Raph does this in the train battle and the shredder fight pre-karai death.) Even some of Raph's moves are essentially boxing moves. It also makes sense why, in the show, Raph loves wrestling so much. It may not be boxing, but it's a very similar sport.

Boxers also have large, bulky figures similar to Raph. Their entire body is muscular as opposed to just their legs or arms because of how physical their sport is.

*Mikey throws a lot of super heavy stuff like the top of a sky scraper, a loaded cargo ship, and a semi-truck, but he does it with the help of his mystic weapon.

Hahaha I'm so. Normal.

Instead of having the ninjas walk the plank, Nadakhan has something worse in mind. When he calls for a special edition of Scrap-N-Tap, it’s Cole versus Jay, and for lack of a choice, the two comply. Cole really, really doesn’t want to fight. Jay tells a small lie.
