I think I only had the second and third issues, but I remember being creeped out by those guys getting killed by the fungus. This was from... 1974? 1975?

I'd been fascinated by the idea of this comic since I read about it in The Encyclopedia of Super Heroes as a kid (his inclusion, in hindsight, is unsurprising, since that book's author, Jeff Rovin, was the EIC of Atlas) and I finally got a chance to read it and yeah, it's even weirder than I expected.  Tarantula (3) also ate people.

It's Cudley the Cowlick, the giant floating cow head that licks up the turtles and spits them out elsewhere in time and space.

A couple years back I read all the Mirage, Image, Mirage reboot and IDW TMNT comics on a lark, but I couldn't bring myself to read the Archie stuff, because I remembered what it was like.

Those pages kind of have a alt-comix look to them. All they're missing is a couple of gross-out jokes about boners and piss.

theironjef posted:I am instantly dumbfounded every time I get reminded that for a huge portion of their run Raphael was just a black blob. As a kid I couldn’t figure out WHY. “Is he in shadows all the time because he’s so surly? Is he wearing a black suit? If it’s a black suit, why???” These are the things I’d wonder every time I was allowed a new comic. Anyway, I loved the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse storyline and my father actually got me every issue! Good comic.

I thought Don Simpson was better known than this, though I guess Megaton Man has fallen deep into obscurity.

Apparently this is the current cartoon incarnation: I'm not really sure what to think, but I'm gonna go with "it's not aimed at me so whatever".

I’d be fine if each of the turtles was based on a different turtle but that style does nothing for me. The IDW series is real good and it’s my “grab the year’s trades on the holiday sale and read over christmas” book of choice.

Fair point, in motion it looks charming as hell. I'm sure the internet hates it because April is black of course

My favorite detail in those designs is that Donatello actually just painted the eyebrows on his mask so he can emote better; Donnie's such a huge dork.

I've heard nothing but good things about the new cartoon, but I'll admit that at first glance it doesn't inspire huge amounts of confidence.

No matter your thoughts on the cartoon, it doesn't have the turtle-sub getting mated with by a sea monster, so it's not the worst.

I don't think it's a good idea to put the children reading circle In such a central space where you'd hear that from the whole building.

The Toronto Comic Arts Festival has been held in that library many times so I'm guessing the artist saw it up close and personal.
