Hey
Everyone,

It's
been too long since I posted anything up here at Mikey's, and yet it seems I've not been working on any comics, BUT... I have been keeping up and staying on track. It's just I keep forgetting to mention it on here, as Dribble For Kids has moved onto Issue 5, which is the Season Finale to Season 2. Oooo the drama of it all! 

 

When
Last we left on Page 19 of Issue 4: Fellowship of the Sweater, The Masked 1 has attacked the D4K gang and is tearing the bar in the mall up, looking for them, but more importantly, looking for the sweater!! Find out what happens at the end of Issue 4's... "shocking" conclusion, as it heads to the Season Finale of Season 2, which is Lord of the Sweaters Chapter 3: Betrayal of the Sweater, which is already on Page 5.

In Chapter
3 of Lord of the Sweaters, Charlie, Jimmy and a slowly mentally
unstable Penny must fend off the Masked 1 and his new co-hort Denny!  It
seems SAPS Incorporated is gaining the upperhand... if only Nick and Nate were
still alive to rescue them!  Ah, but there is something else, no-- SOMEONE
else at work here, which will throw the odds back in our heroes' favor... or it
will be the ruin of them....

 

Without
further Adieu'.....

Here's
Issue 4:

And

-->>Special thanx to our forum's 'Vember'& Bry Kotyk for this cool tip ::




"..full props go to a "Bry Kotyk (goldeneyed)" of Livejournal for posting in the TMNT community there.









I really liked the original comments, so:
Bry Kotyk (goldeneyed) wrote:
Considering the way the franchise has been handled recently, I guess it's safe to assume the new movie will be based far more strongly on the original comic books than previous efforts. Based on what little can be seen of Leonardo himself, the Turtles seem based visually on their initial appearances - small bodies, big hands/forearms, "sharper" facial features... The focus on that sharp, shining blade doesn't exactly make me foresee the guys playing football with cans of ooze or fighting off ninjas with a set of cymbals, either. I was sort of hoping they'd go all out and put all four Turtles in the red headbands, but I wasn't really expecting it. Looks good, though. Very good.
Here's a link to the discussions there. "

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES VOLUME ONE: ATTACK OF THE MOUSERS
24th June 2005 • £7.99 • 1-84576-092-1

The world famous Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are back, once more bringing their brand of mutated mayhem to aspiring young ninjas across the land! This collection of brand new material brings the Turtles bang up to date with a darker twist and jaw-dropping, all-action storytelling!
They hail from the New York City sewers, mutated from unwanted pets into wise-cracking Ninja masters by a mysterious ooze…



Taught Knowledge and Ninjitsu by the wise Master Splinter, it’s time for the world to get re-acquainted with the shellsome foursome: Leonardo, Raphael, Michaelangelo and Donatello — the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! Emerging from the sewers, the Turtles hit the city streets just as the evil Dr Baxter Stockman prepares to unleash an army of robotic ‘mousers’ – steel mouths on legs ready to devastate everything in their path!



But who is the mysterious villain behind Stockman’s plans - and the leader of the vicious Purple Dragons street gang? Could it be… the Shredder? An all-new series by fan-favourite writer Peter David (Supergirl, The Incredible Hulk, Star Trek), dynamically illustrated by talented newcomer LeSean Thomas!

• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were the major breakout comics success of the 1990s, spawning the longest-running cartoon series of the time, three movies, two chart-topping songs, and hundreds of arcade and home computer games, toys and merchandising items.
  
• A new Ninja Turtles cartoon is currently showing on GMTV and Jetix!
  
• A new CGI movie directed by Kevin Munroe is currently in development, to debut in 2007!
  
• As well as writing Supergirl and the longest consecutive run of issues on The Incredible Hulk, Peter David has scripted episodes and tie-in novels for the Star Trek franchise.
  
• Newcomer LeSean Thomas first brought his energetic, manga-influenced style to the independent fantasy comic Arkanium, before hitting the big time with TMNT.

We got two updates this week.

We got some shocking things to go over, I gar-an-tee.

And of course, there is the aftermath.

Saw Sin City. Good? I thought so. Not a movie I'll pull out and watch every day on DVD, but I thought it was decent. It's dialouge seemed ripped from the comics, and cos of that, it didn't feel right all the time, and sometimes was laughable, but definately worth a look.
