Oops. Didn't mean to hit submit yet. I had to go pick up my food.>>153647445>TMNT: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Storytime Thread #2Like that, but in the subject line?
Cool, I been picking up the OG issues when I find them. Got a bunch between #1 to #35, art is always great.
>>153647931Yeah, to make them easier to find and to keep track what stories are in what threads

>>153649963I completely forgot the freak out over 2012 having a bad ending scenario.
I like the art, but the plot is all over the place.Still better than IDW.
>>153649605is this what inspired biker mice from mars?
>>153648388man, TMNT is much more wordy than I thought it could ever be.
>>153651307Really puts the "book" in "comic book".
Reading bump

>>153649963Kevin Siembieda loved to tell a blatantly retarded story about how their games were selling incredibly well until the cartoon came out, and then when it did, none of the cool kids wanted to play the kiddy turtle cartoon game anymore. The part of the story he always leaves out is that by the time the cartoon came out, the only TMNT books they were releasing either downplayed or removed the TMNT name from the covers, in favor of the "After the Bomb" branding. On top of that, the books were largely useless shit like "Mutants of the Yucatan" or "Mutants Down Under" which most people who were playing TMNT&OS or AtB probably wouldn't have any use for anyways. Not to mention that even by late 80s TTRPG standards, Palladium's games were infamously badly designed and never got any better, while everyone else was rapidly improving and offering better games like Gamma World.
