I thought it was ok. I thought they went a little overboard disfiguring the turtles, but what are you gonna do.........

I would've liked to see a real conclusion to the series, though . When the comic was canned they didn't really wrap much up.

I only have two issues, but I like it. I think it was a good series from what Ive read.

I also have only two issues, but I've already heard so much about the happenings in that series. I'm not too happy with what Image did, but I am interested in getting the rest of the issues.

I have all but one or two issues. I like it a fair amount. Its more "adult", and as anyone who knows me knows... :evilgrin:

But no, I don't like all the disfigurement.

...interesting.

Thats about the only way I can put it. I thought the story was good, but because of all the damage done to the turtles, all I could think when reading through them was "Gee, this is an interesting alternate universe they've got going here!"

I couldn't see it as the same universe as the Mirage stuff, it just didn't fit in my mind.

Yeah that was the worst, Donatello as a Cyborg.
........followed by Splinter turning into a rabid Giant Bat?
They did take chances, i'll give them that .

I did like when Raphael wore Casey's Mask ............

I have quite a few Image comics and I like them. Not as much as I like the Mirage series, but the story was interesting. I didn't dislike the disfigurement, and I think it was an entertaining take on the Turtles' in the least. I'm more into psychological scarring, but physical is good too.

I really enjoyed Mike getting to have a girlfriend. Plus, Splinter as a rabid bat did have its amusing moments.

Azraelito
08-26-2002, 01:10 PM
mike a girlfriend?? wowwwwww who is it?

Kali
08-26-2002, 03:26 PM
An Image, specifically Savage Dragon, character Sara Hill, code named Horridus. They were cute together.

I think the series went way overboard on the mutilations. But I must say I thought Raph's scar, followed by his transition into the new Shredder was pretty cool. I thought it fit his personality.

Kali
08-26-2002, 03:50 PM
And it was very fitting, seeing as how Raph was the one who kinda inspired the creation of the Foot Clan in the first place. And with the scar, several future Mirage works have shown him with an eyepatch anyway.

eye patch in mirage? i only saw that on later archie...

Kali
08-27-2002, 10:26 AM
Well, I think it was just a few individual art pieces by Mirage artists. But it seems weird that you'd see him with an eye patch in more than one universe, almost like it's supposed to happen.

Azraelito
08-27-2002, 10:47 AM
wowwwwwww that character from savage dragon kakaka is very cool i read some issues from dragon is very cool.

Karpo_007
08-27-2002, 11:35 AM
well some mirage artists just think it looked cool and draw their own version...

wadew
08-27-2002, 12:13 PM
kakaka?

Kameko
08-27-2002, 01:32 PM
I haven't read any of them, but I've heard more than enough about them. I'd like to get ahold of some of them some day, though.

On the other hand, I really don't like the disfigurements. I mean, they blew off Donny's shell for cripe's sake!

HorseTechie
08-27-2002, 03:34 PM
kakaka?
He's from South America... so I think that's how he laughs.. er something. :oops:

*throws in her two cents* Yeah.. I think the comic had potential with the plot they started with... but then it reached a point where they started throwing in this concept and that adventrue... it just got to crazy to enjoy. Like they just scratched the surface barely, then jumped over to another thing before I got to understand why this first event was happening.

I was okay with Don's change to a cyborg, and the violent way he acted, that made sense since he had this evil computer controlling his actions. Like a case of Dr. Jeckal/Mr. Hyde. And Raph scar... that was okay too, seen we saw future views of him with a patch. Then Mike getting some.. *lol*

But then seeing Splinter as a mug ugly bat, and then all the illogical crap on Leo getting shot and his hand bit off... and he hardly acts like nothings wrong.. oh pleeease! The plot went from barely okay to worse toward the end, and I stopped buying like after the 18th issue.

azure turtle
09-01-2002, 11:26 PM
LOL!!! Popeye is so cool! I used to eat plenty of spinach just so I could get strong like him. I still eat spinach today, but not as much as I used to. :razz:

As of yesterday I now have the entire 23 issue Image run. I've decided that my favorite aspect of it is Splinter (when he's not a giant bat). He was well drawn, and had a great sense of humor! They even have him watching South Park! I also absolutely loved when Casey walked in on him sitting atop a hog-tied Pimiko. :o

Karpo_007
09-04-2002, 09:24 AM
you got all of them? well i called today and my comics should arrivi tomorrow! I wil have complete mirage volume 1.

Azraelito
09-04-2002, 09:24 AM
uhhhhhhhh 23 issues cool you have the one that appears for the first time cyber don?

Kali
09-04-2002, 09:30 AM

*giggles* I have that issue. That was too funny. Then they sit around and have tea. I also liked the bath scene.

Azraelito

lady pimiko is a good girl?or a bad girl?

Kali
09-04-2002, 09:36 AM
Oroku Pimiko spent most of the Image series trying to kill the Turtles and Splinter. They did a team up in the last issue, but we don't know what happened after that.

Lol - does anybody remember the live-action Popeye movie? I'm sure there was one. I can only remember it vaguely though, there was something in a bottle, a note right? Wait, maybe that's not right. :-?

Karpo_007
09-04-2002, 11:57 AM
yeah, there was a live action movie... it had Robin Williams as popeye...

wadew
09-04-2002, 01:09 PM
Don't try to remember it. Popeye the movie was crap

Azraelito
09-05-2002, 11:52 AM
kaka robin williams as popeye nooooooooooo i didn see it.

azure turtle
09-05-2002, 01:19 PM
Yup, the live action Popeye movie was terrible... :sick:

I have the third issue of Image, where Don's body kinda disappears. He's supposed to return as Cyborg Don in the fourth issue, I think...

Azraelito
09-06-2002, 02:22 PM
haha yes cyber don rules it is very cool that blaster that he has in his right hand.

Nickokapo
09-06-2002, 02:55 PM

I've only seen the poster of the movie in a site, but i haven't seen the movie itself...i guess that's a good thing because it didn't looked like a good movie :lol: i do remember the popeye nes game that has some musical notes and stuff...i hate popeye :sweatdro:

Azraelito
09-06-2002, 04:58 PM
kaka i woul like to hear the music pirpirpirp bibiibibi akaka.

Nickokapo
09-06-2002, 05:45 PM
What music, the game music?Don't worry, the music was as annoying as the game :lol: :wink:

Vespera Blaze
09-06-2002, 05:52 PM
I remember that movie.... wow, the rush of nostalgia that brings, although I'm probably dating myself saying I remember it clearly... :lol:

Azraelito
09-07-2002, 11:10 AM
nuuuuuuuu the game?i didnt know that wowwwwwwww it is the one from nes?

Mike
09-07-2002, 12:52 PM
The two issue I hacve are 3 and 18. My comic shop guy has been looking for some more for me though. Splinter was a bat? That's just wrong! :x

Karpo_007
09-07-2002, 02:28 PM
Image is unofficial so i wont have much intress in it... altough maybe when i have all the old mirage i could look into it..

azure turtle
09-07-2002, 11:29 PM
nuuuuuuuu the game?i didnt know that wowwwwwwww it is the one from nes?
I don't know if it was ever released for the NES, but I do know that it was originally an arcade game. Check out www.gamefaqs.com and do a search for Popeye. I bet it'll be in there somewhere. :)

The comic store that I found has absolutely no TMNT Image comics. :mad: I really want to get the first issue and the fourth one, so I can find out what happens next.

Azraelito
09-08-2002, 11:06 AM
haha that is a good idea gamefaqs is the bible for the video games :D.
