Leonardo leads, Donatello does machines, Raphael is cool but rude,
Michelangelo is a party dude! The animated Turtles of the original
cartoon are back!
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles first appeared in 1984, but it wasn't
until 1987 that a catchy theme song and action-packed cartoon helped
make them a global phenomenon! Now discover four "lost episodes" that
follow in the radical two-toed footsteps of the classic series.
First, an unexpected power surge leaves the brothers trapped in a
virtual training program, facing digital versions of their most fearsome
foes, in "VR in Deep Trouble"! Next, a mysterious piece of tech
transforms one of Krang's stone soldiers into a power ballad-belting
rockstar, but how long will the change last? It's a hair metal adventure
"For Those About to Rock"! Then Casey Jones gets superpowers, and he
can't wait to up his crime-fighting game. But when Raph and the others
learn his powers come at a cost, can they convince "Super Casey" to give
them up? And finally, when Baxter Stockman injects Splinter with
microscopic mousers, Donny will have to shrink himself down to save his
sensei, in "Big Trouble in Master Splinter"!
Writer Erik Burnham (Ghostbusters, G.I. Joe: A Real American
Hero--Saturday Morning Adventures) authentically captures '80s pop
culture so that it holds true for longtime fans while immediately
appealing to today's younger audience, and artist Tim Lattie nails the
cartoon's signature look.
Grab a slice and settle in with the world's most fearsome fighting team,
the heroes in a half shell! Turtle power!
