Toxic Crusaders coming to DVD

[Drtooth]

It appears that Troma is finally going to release the entire Toxic Crusader series as part of a Toxic Avenger box set.

Originally, only the "Movie" and the first 4 episodes of the series were available (I have the 4 episode one... 30's cartoons as a special feature? But it's worth the price to hear Lloyd Kaufman's intro).

Now here's where the April Fool's joke comes in. This is... REAL NEWS and it's REALLY going to happen. That's the trick, posting an honest news item on April Fools...

I've never seen Toxic Avenger before. I should probably check that one out before deciding on whether or not to get a whole box set. I like bad movies, but sometimes certain b-movies still end up not being all they're cracked up to be.

Ha, don't worry, they're not B-movies, they're more like Z-movies, which means they're AWESOME. The Toxic Avenger is amazing. TA 2 and 3 are moderatly entertaining, but I found Citizen Toxie (4) to be better than 2 and 3. But Toxic Crusaders is vastly different from it's live action counterpart, so don't expect a lot of similarities. TA is a gratuitously (sp?) violent movie with lots of nudity, while TC is more like the old TMNT toon. But both are definetly worth watching. Looking forward to having the complete series on dvd.

I don't think I watched much of Toxic Crusaders. I do remember watching a Swamp Thing cartoon though.
