Hey! Dystopia Crew here bearing gifts for you! We may not have gotten past the prelims, but we're sure as heck stickin around!

Here are some Turtle stuffies to get you through the next leg of the competition! (They're weighted and have a neet lil pocket for ice packs if needed :3)

(PS: pay no mind to the stuffatello, there are no evil schemes here :3c)

This is so cute!! We decided to change up who gets which plushie

Donnie thinks this turtle is so pretty! He's going to name them Curie and put them on a shelf in his room. You should see them in the next comic!

Raph names his Johnny because its a tough guy name. He has a few small pink and red plushies in his room, he's gonna add Johnny to them to protect them. @0ddbugs is working on Leo and Mikey's responses :D

Incorrect RL TMNT Conversation

Mikey: *nums pizza slice quickly* Leo’s built for speed. I’m built for feed! *nabs a new one* 

Donnie: Not necessarily. I’d say me and you were built for speed and Leo and Raph were of a more muscular build. 

Leo: *sitting down to nab a pizza before they eat it all* Everyone’s built to be fed.

Raph: Everyone’s built to starve. That’s why we eat so much.

Leo: ….

Donnie: ….

Mikey: ….

Raph: *stares them down and chews* 

Leo: Wow… That’s… Weirdly deep

Donnie: I guess it is biologically accurate

Mikey: What? 

[tangledinink]

I thought you might find this funny, but I have therapy today. Which means that I get to explain to my therapist what a rise of the tmnt apocalypse comic is and why it send me into a depressive spiral this weekend lmao

EYYYYY that’s what *I* did at therapy this week, too!!! Wassup!!!! Tell ur therapist I said hi!!!!

[xxlea-nardoxx]

Whenever I see the "It's still in my leg" scene from Mutant Mayhem, I think of the time in third grade, when I got accidentally stabbed in the head with a pencil.💀

Plus a visualization and unrealistic picture, since Don would definitely be crying if this happened to him.😂

[dandylovesturtles]

we aren't allowed to tie with 2AL/SLAU :c but here's some propaganda anyway. I'm super busy with RL stuff and I don't have time for a lot so sorry this is kinda short haha

as always Firefight is owned by @remedyturtles, 2AL is owned by @intotheelliwoods, and SLAU is owned by @separatedleoau/@dianagj-art

-----

"Geez, what happened to them?" asks one of their opponents the moment they get there.

And Leo can understand the question. The other Leo has finally come out of his shell, and the picture is not pretty. Since he poked his head out, he and the other Donnie have been impossible to pry apart, and they haven't tried. Leo's old transport chair isn't big enough for two, but they're crammed into it anyway, letting Raph wheel them around. He just seems content to be useful.

"The Krang," says Donnie flatly, when the other two offer absolutely no answer for that. They aren't really paying attention, but the other Donnie must have filled his in on the situation at some point. He keeps calling them "Leo Beta and Donnie Beta" like some kind of nerd.

"Oh," says the older Leo sympathetically. "Do you think... I can talk to them?"

"Knock yourself out," Leo says, and the older Leo nods and approaches the two in the wheelchair, kneeling to talk to them in a low voice. Leo decides not to listen in.

"Hey," says the other Leo his age, the one with only one arm, "didn't we meet before?"

Recognition dawns. "Oh yeah, we did! Right back at the start."

The one-armed Leo grins wide. "Cool! Well, you can call me Poptart, I guess. That one's Sprout," he indicates the older Leo, "and this guy is One." He tosses his arm around One at the introduction, and One wrinkles his snout but doesn't pull away.

"Man, this sucks," he says. "I was hoping for a real challenge this time."

Leo tenses. "Uh, what's that supposed to mean?"

"Isn't it obvious what it means?" One gestures at the twins in the wheelchair. "Those guys are half-dead, and you're-" He stops short, glancing at Poptart.

Leo can feel the preemptive rage rolling of Donnie, but he wheels his chair forward a bit before he can say anything. "I'm what?"

"You were probably trained to fight by that rat too, that's all," One goes with, looking irritated by the whole exchange.

"Heh. You don't look tough." Leo grins wide. "I could beat you sitting down."

(Beside him, Donnie's rage gives way to irritation.)

This gets One's hackles up. "Okay, fine. We'll show you guys!" He turns to leave. "Come on, Poptart, let's go talk strategy."

"No way!" Poptart doesn't make a move. "I want to stay and hang out! We can talk before the match."

"Don't fraternize with the enemy!"

"You're being so dramatic," says Poptart, and without missing a beat he slings his arm around One's shoulder's again, pulling him into a hug that's more of a headlock. One makes a series of furious noises, sounding remarkably like an angry cat, but can't dislodge himself, and Poptart manages to drag him over to join the group.

"Come on! Let's find a spot to sit!"

"These two could do with some more hydration too, I think," said Sprout, standing up and taking Raph's place behind the wheelchair.

"Great!" says Poptart. "Let's visit the snack bar!"

"Sounds great to me!" Leo sings, falling in beside Poptart. He can't help but snicker at the struggling One. "But, uh, is he gonna be okay?"

"Oh, he'll be fine once he gets a snack."

"No!? Don't eat with the enemy!" yells One.

"He's just a little grumpy," Poptart adds, giving him a pout.

"Heh, well, we can fix that!"

"Stop! Let me go! Auuuugh!"

antis need to get outta the tmnt fandom, fr. 

tcest has been around since the very beginning, drawn by artists who drew the mirage comics, drawn by fans. iirc, the current biggest artist of the IDW comics ships leomikey. one of eastman & laird’s coworkers drew donnie/mikey porn as a gift to them. a rottmnt storyboarder put the leotello kiss in the show. RL (raph/leo) has been the most popular ship in the fandom for forever. 

we built this city, youre just living in it.

[count-mecha]

A much belated look at some of my favorites in comics from September.

Favorite Cover: Cradle of Filth #3 by Meghan Hetrick

All 3 of the horror anthologies I picked up from September - Cradle of Filth, Creepshow, and Things of Nightmares - are great. I think the strongest issue of the 3 was RL Stine's Stuff of Nightmares but the Cradle of Filth horror anthology has been consistently good and this Elizabeth Bathory cover is just so great.

Favorite Panel: Superman Space Age #2 by Mike Russell with Michael + Laura Allred.

I actually wasn't aware of this series until recently and caught up on both. Been a huge fan of The Allreds for a long time and I pick up everything they do. Soace Age has been a fun overview of Superman's life. Liked this panel of Superman with Nixon and Elvis, I like nods to my city I guess.

Favorite Page: Vanish #1 by Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman

Slight early spoiler for this - As an edgelord and a 90's kid, I loved the first issue of Vanish. This page was really excellent and unexpected. Really like the concepts here with magic users, extreme violence, and the fact that the former world hero is dealing with rock bottom drug addiction brings an interesting angle. I'm excited to see where this one goes. I don't want to explain too much but you should check it out if it sounds ingesting to you.

Favorite Overall: Hell is a Squared Circle by Chris Condon and Francesco Biagini with Mike Englehart

Daniel Warren Johnson may be putting out one of the best wrestling serials right now with Do A Powerbomb but Hell is a Square Circle shouldn't be overlooked. I really liked this one-shot wrestling, crime noir story a lot. Mark Engelhart's colors really bring this together for me as well. Check it out.

Incorrect RL TMNT QUOTE

Donnie: *ranting about science while Leo watches a show*

Leo: *absently* Can you please not use that word?

Donnie: *blinks* What word? Moist?

Leo: Yes.

Donnie: Why?

Leo: It’s just weird.

Donnie: …HEY RAPH

Raph: *walking in* What?

Donnie: You hear that?

Raph: We can’t use the word moist?

Donnie: He does not like the word moist.

Raph: MOIST? Really? MOIST?

Donnie: I agree. There’s nothing wrong with MOIST. MOIST is just a word. MOIST is a good, handy word.

Mikey: *lying nearby* But he doesn’t like Moist

Donnie: *nods wisely* Right. No saying Moist. In any context.

Raph: Leo does not like Moist. Moist is bad.

Mikey: What if I need to say something is really Moist. Like Moister or Moistest. Can I use those Moist things?

Donnie: Just avoid everything Moist.

Raph: What did Moist ever do to Leo anyway?

Leo: *staring, absolutely dumbfounded*
