–>> Starting off, some great news to keep TMNT fans not able to attend San Diego Comic-Con connected and informed on all the Shellebrations and events !!
Stephan of GGM</em> :: “Hey guys,
Just wanted to let you know that, barring technical difficulties, GoGreenMachine.Org will be streaming the 25th anniversary panel (Friday 4:15-5:15) LIVE from our website. We are still running tests on our gear to see what kind of quality we can get via streaming (We are particularly worried about the sound), but absolute worst case scenario, we will begin uploading the video to our servers IMMEDIATELY afterward (God bless netbooks).
Additionally, We will be live streaming the Special Convention Presentation “Spotlight on Convention Special Guest Kevin Eastman†from 1-2 on Thursday.
Not to mention all the other random photos and videos we will be posting all week long. It all actually starts TOMORROW with our coverage of the Foot Clan tryouts in Los Angeles along with the TMNT25 Los Angeles tour stop at Golden Apple.
So keep an eye on Http://www.GoGreenMachine.Org starting tomorrow and all through SDCC09!”

“THE BEST BAR IN 9999 + Dimensions : MUNDEN’S ! ” , GRIM JACK #26 – spot ad .. art by Peter Laird (( 1986 ))

–>> This classic ad for the cult – fave “TMNT / GRIM JACK” crossover in pretty interesting from the long gone but not forgotten First Comics.
On the offset it gives off the classic whimsy and nature in diversity of the Mirage Aliens that Laird and Eastman populated the Turtles’ Galaxy with.
There is one thing of interesting note on this ad.
On Peter Laird’s popular blog in a post of **September of 2008 , Pete posted an illustration entitled “Enchanted Pilgrimage” ::
“Clifford Simak is one of my all-time favorite writers, and in the early 1980′s I played around with trying to illustrate some scenes from a few of his books. This one is from “Enchanted Pilgrimage”. “– PL

Obviously, these uncovered ‘Simak’ creatures from Mr.Laird’s archives are the same ones depicted as the Turtles’ extra-terrestrial drinking buddies in the GRIM JACK ad !!

The following Ubisoft TMNT Game NEWS courtesy of ** Rose ::
“You probably know about the upcoming TMNT Smash-Up & Turtles in Time: Re-Shelled video games, but aside from breaking the news on the existance of TMNT Re-Shelled, I’ve pretty much left the gaming Web sites to take care of feeding the public with info on them, since they generally get fed all that information directly and the only thing I’d be able to do is steal their news from them and I’m just not that kind of person.
Anywho, a fine gentleman from Ubisoft was kind enough to send me an e-mail with some pictures that, apparently, have not been sent to any of the other gaming Web sites (yet). That’s right, these are for Turtles fans first!
Update: Quality issues have been fixed (thanks, Ubisoft!), but I’m told that this images aren’t particularly new. Well, I guess it’s still something.
