>How are you enjoying the mutant town stuff so far? Personally, I'm open to the idea but it's gotten a bit sappy in the last issue. The last issue was unironically the furriest commercial comic I've ever seen. >How do you feel about Jennika? I'm not sold on her completely, but she's unironically unoffensive.

I want another indie movie loosely along the vibe of the 1990 one, it was pretty near perfect in a lot of ways. >Why is '87 April the best April? She just is.

Not as bad as Venus, at least. >What do you want out of future iterations? I'unno. Something as good as IDW. >Why is '87 April the best April? Nostalgia.

No. When it comes to TMNT do you know when it will reach it's furriest point? When you see a TMNT series where the animal anthros naturally exist in the universe. They would NOT be mutants. They would be normal like in Bojack Horseman.
That will be TMNT at its furriest. On top of that do you know what will top that? When they do a TMNT series that's strictly and absolutely similar to Sly Cooper meaning only animal anthros populate the world. You got the locations that are familiar and such but the world is only filled with animal anthros and humans are nowhere to be found AT ALL. That is furry. That is furry. THAT IS FURRY!
It was born in the same room parties that led to Anthrocon. It crosses over with Usagi Yojimbo, a series so furry it started out in Albedo Anthropomorphics.
That's just how it be.

>Best April Well personality alone, Rise April's one of the top.
Probably betrayed by one of his animal mutants. I don't see the turtles killing Hob because in this series they do not kill. Even if it's Jennika who has killed before? I can see the turtles stopping her from killing Hob.
So that leaves the situation at simply Hob being betrayed. Like maybe Sally convinces Ray to abandon Hob, Hob is angry and shoots Sally with his gun and in anger Ray murders Hob.

How do I into Turtles? Original stuff or current IDW stuff?
Jordan Harris
The IDW comic is good. Aside from that I dunno, there's a lot of stuff to pick from. Good classic beat 'em ups. The first movie is good. Various TV shows.
I remember the old archie stuff getting unusually dark. Better archie comic to get into than Sonic or gods forbid actual Archie though... Bad enough with bat flu going around you dont want to give yourself autism too.
Jace Smith
'Member the time when they showed a panel of the recently-killed mutanimals suffering in hell and they were forced to include a panel in the next issue explaining that the mutanimals weren't ACTUALLY being tortured for all eternity?
Hunter Sanchez
I remember the turtles getting FUCKED up by the four horsemen and famine making mikey waste into nothing and starve to fucking death. Fucked up seven year old me. That was one of the reasons I liked Tournament Fighters so much, it was based on the comics. Kinda disappointed the only horseman was War though. Fuck after I finish or take a break from Crossed I think I'll revisit Archie Turtles.
>>Why is '87 April the best April? the people who likes the damesel in distress April both hates original comics April and everything TMNT is supposed to be
>What TMNT property do you actually like? Mirage TMNT. TMNT 2012. Michael Bay's TMNT
Adam Carter
>2012 TMNT I'm not a huge fan, but I get it >bay's TMNT to what end
Alexander Martinez
>to what end it gots the ironic grim on the turtles look the Mirage Comics wanted. The original TMNT were supposed to be scary and unappealing, 80's childify them and made them unable to be scary. Plus, Kraang-kino
Jack Brown
i mean the concept of a teenage mutant ninja turtle in itself is extremely goofy
it's a daredevil parody, it's supposed to be
Luis Torres
I don't you know what you're talking about. TMNT "was" a Daredevil's parody, yes. But it was also a parody of every 90's comic book dark and edgy trope. The comic was ironically serious and realistic. The point of the comic was taking a silly idea like "giant turtles that use weapons" and make it extremely gritty and edgy. And surrendering to the sillyness of the idea like 80's and ROTMNT did is just....banal
unless you made it out and out a horror comic i don't think any kids are going to be scared of TMNT no matter how gritty you make it
Oliver Jenkins
>it's still a silly idea from the start though Yes. And the point of the comic was taking it seriously as every 90's comic did. That's why it worked as a parody
Brayden Jackson
I'm just trying to say that I don't think TMNT were ever going to be seen as properly scary like you said earlier. I'm not contesting you it was a serious ninja revenge story, but "monster ninjas dudes bloodily slicing up other ninjas" isn't scary to like any kid, it's rad as fuck.
Jaxon Rodriguez
How well does the mirage comic hold up? I'm curious. Nobody ever talks about it, it seems like.
Start from Mirage and go chronologically. Skip 2nd and 3rd live action movie and Next Mutation.
Jason Edwards
Say what you want about Bayturtles, but Bebop and Rocksteady were fucking great. Hated Casey's bland as fuck outfit though. It was just a mask and the actor's clothes he wore from home to the set.
Ryan Roberts
TMNT is pretty versatile. I think there's lots of ways you could handle it and each way could be as good as the other while being different takes. I like Rise and the 80's cartoon, and I also like Mirage and 2K3.
Possibly? It was mostly just quarantine boredom combined with the big two shutting down. I'm enjoying it, I love over the top shock shit. On #6 of Family Values now, not as good as V1 but I heard they go back and forth in quality. It's okay but I'm not expecting anything as crazy like the big reveal with George in Volume 1.
Luke Edwards
This is fucking great Let's see you make a better fanart parody
