reading the comics is fucking insane like Leo does not give a shit huh

stabs the shredder in the gut, crashes 3 cop cars by issue 3

raph drinks apparently, donnie pushed the shredder off a roof because shredder pulled out a THERMITE BOMB,

and you cant even tell these guys apart when they're not holding their weapons. theres no color, no belt buckle with their first initial, its a guessing game

somehow, mikey is the most tame one so far. but then again, its only issue 3

Krell shared fears.

Mirage turts being incredibly terrifying for others in turtles forever and the 2012 crossover ep will never not be funny to me.

all iterations of raphael are lesbian to me. all of them. from mirage to mutant mayhem he's a lesbian throughout it all. none of her relationships with women have been straight. none. he was a lesbian for mona lisa and she was a lesbian for alopex and yep even in archie comics he was lesbian for mezcaal and ninjara. sometimes shes butch sometimes shes femme but raph is always a lesbian and always has been. nothing will prove to me otherwise. raph x casey? well, easy answer there. casey can be transfem or a butch or even a transmasc lesbian. don't even try me. the red of the mask is for the lesbian flag

Oh yeah, I was skimming through the Mirage issues from Volume 4 the other day (specifically the ones where Raph undergoes his secondary mutation) and I just

Happy Valentine's day, please enjoy some good ol' angst because not everyone should have the right to be happy on Valentine's Day.

Honestly, it's up to you guys if you wanna view this as friends/platonic or shipping or both if you ship certain Leosagi but not all. Let's just say it's not a coincidence that the 03 one has red and pink as the background *wink wink*.

And before anyone starts asking questions, yes the first one is Leo. All the turtle's wore red in the mirage comics before they became color coded for the 1987 cartoon. Back then, you'd have to find the difference by looking at what weapons the turtle's had.

I hope I did a good job mimicking all those art styles. Especially Stan Sakai's artsyle that changed during the first issue with Leo vs. the recent.

Here’s my entire Sonic the Hedgehog/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic cover variants.

It would be cool if we can get that but it’ll be up to Sega and IDW

I loved this Saturday Morning comic, this was so much fun to work on

Although, looking back on it, I probably should have switched '03 Donnie and Jennika's expression LMFAO

Come and enjoy stories that will remind you of the 40 years of turtle history.

SCORE: 10 *

* Assuming you are familiar with these iterations.

This is a strange read, and curiously, there are three or four highlights for me, and they are not exactly the ones you would imagine.

Spoilers after the break...

The first story by Kevin Eastman is in the Mirage section of the book but... well... I'll leave at that... I wouldn't call it the Mirage we knew.

There is a story by Lawson and Lavigne with the Rat King that... it's fun. But, you know... I wouldn't even try to fit it in canon... the amount of continuity physics you need to bend to place this story is not worth the time. Just enjoy as a new story by these two iconic Mirage artists.

This other story by Tristan H. Jones and Paul Harmon requires more analysis. I'll revisit it on my gang wars video and try to give it more context... but unfortunately... it's just too vague. All I can say for sure is that it happens in the future of that incomplete saga, but the narrator just takes too many artistic choices to be taken at face value.

Also... I believe this is the first official (frontal) appearance of Agent Bishop (unless I got the character wrong, but Jones already tried to introduce him in this saga). I think he is still holding on to it, and I really hope he gets to tell his story. I wouldn't mind a mini-series... just saying!

The Volume 3 story was... not for me. The dialogue alone felt tired.

The Archie adventure was short, eventful, and funny... and it looks amazing too!

In just four pages a new character was introduced and... a new love story was implied! And it's not just a gratuitous cameo... this is a funny sequence.

The Saturday Morning Adventures (the de facto 87 story) looks amazing as usual, but I didn't find the story that interesting. However, it started a theme that would run across most of the stories in this special after this one: Master Splinter.

The 2003 story is a... loose canon?

Hun is Slash, and Shredder is back... so make of that what you want. All I'm going to say is that this felt a lot like watching the beginning of a 2003 episode, with the narration setting the tone.

The 2012 story was one of the least interesting in the previews, but I have to say... it was probably one of the best. It brought back a villain and it technically serves as an excuse to continue the series?

But to me the best thing about the story is the art. I am surprised Ciro Nieli didn't do more comic book work for the Turtles all these years. In fact, if they somehow decided to continue the 2012 universe in 2D in this style... I'm all in. Well, who am I kidding... I would be in anyway... but this looks amazing.

Andy Suriano did probably the most interesting story in the book. Now, I am not sure if his style doesn't translate well to static panels or what the problem is with the comic format... but it doesn't matter... this small story brought in a lot of things that ended on the editing floor after the show's second season was reduced to a few more episodes. There was a rumor about a female turtle, and not only it is here in all its glory, but there is also a brother?

And come on... it's so Lou Jitsu to die with a cliffhanger.

There are two IDW stories. One is another Splinter story, but the other one is perhaps one of the best in this book.

The Ronda Pattison story takes place just before the Armageddon game, and it shows the five turtles in full sibling dynamic (even Jennika). It was refreshing to see these turtles having fun for a change.

There are no stories by the new team, but... well... that's just starting.

Just so we’re clear…
