Yeah, a few more. Dirk Savage Mutant Hunter is one, and then there's another with his name in the title I think.

I believe there's only the 2 episodes which is odd considering he lives right next to them in the sewers lol:lol:

I know, it's almost like Alfred having only a few cameos in a Batman toon.

I have another question, did Mondo Gecko show up in the cartoon or Archie comics first? Which medium did he originate from?

ToTheNines 08-09-2007 10:53 PM

OT, I think.

VaughnMichael 08-09-2007 11:29 PM

Actully it was the Toy line.

M.G. was in Dirk Savage?? O_o I honestly don't remember that.

But, he was a toy first, for sure. I think it was a tight race, but I believe he was introduced in the Archie comics next. I remember watching the ep back in the day, wondering if Mr. X was supposed to be based on Null. :D

Yep he was along with the frogs, tokka, & rahzar.
And yet it went toy, archie, and then toon.

Are you sure the frogs were in Dirk Savage? It's been a while, but I don't think they were.

yes as well as some other random mutants.
I believe it was only 2 of the frogs though.
I have all of the episodes taped off of tv from when they first aired.

Just watched "Leonardo cuts loose," Casey Jones is hilarious in this show. I kind of liked it that the Turtles never really got to know him that well, and he's pretty much a maniac. Its funny how the Turtles don't care when Casey runs after a normal guy with a hockey stick just because he was dropping garbage on the floor. :lol:

Actually, Only Ghengis and Napoleon appear after Leatherhead: Terror of the Swamp. I was never sure as to why this was. Though I suppose you could count Atilla and Rasputin appearing when you see them briefly in Napoleon Bonafrog: Colossus in the Swamp, they don't talk though. Both Napoleon and Ghengis appear in Dirk Savage Mutant Hunter though. They come to visit the turtles.

Well, I've only got one more episode of season 5 to watch. All I can say is that it's been a pleasant suprise.

Pros:
Very funny season
More background music added to the repitoire
Almost every episode is entertaining
Characters like Leo, April, and Shredder get more funny lines
Limited eff-ups (bandana errors, and what not)
Decent animation for every episode
Very few alternate voices (Jim Cummings, bleh)
The 4th wall breaking humor is at its best

Cons:
Almost no real fighting (season 7 is getting close tho!)
Stupid new opening sequence (No "duh duh duh duh deh dah" with the episode title)
No big finale

Good thing this puppy was on sale at K-mart and had such radical packaging, or else my cheap ass wouldn't have bought it until it was marked down big time (I still don't have season 4)

You can find season 4 at Walmart for 25 bucks.

That's not a bad deal for 40 episodes at all (well 38 that you don't currently have on DVD).

Chances are when it's marked down too (if it's ever) you won't get the nifty slip case.

Also you risk the chance of not being able to find it (I know volumes 1-6 are easy to find cheap, but they're not a 5 disc set either). I haven't seen Season 4 at my local Best Buy, Suncoast or Circuit City for a while now.:ohwell:

Tell me you're joking... When you first see Leatherhead, he has all four frogs carrying him on that stretcher thing. Or were you thinking about a different ep? Because I seem to remember one with only two of the frogs.
