Crossovers....
 

Has there ever been a definite list of all of the crossovers the TMNT have been a part of in all forms of media? I think it would be interesting to compile such a list. I've got quite a few that I can think of off of the top of my noggin, but of course, I don't know everything about 'em. Any help would be appreciated. Oh, and keep your fanfics out of this, to any of you who would dare consider injecting them here :roll:.

(And I would use Rose's Flickr album for assistance, but it's been set to private :dead:)

What about "The Last of the Viking Heroes"? (Can't think of the publisher, though I think it might have also happened in a Turtle Soup book as well as the Viking Heroes series).

Also, Image's Vanguard crossed over in Volume 3.

I'm not familiar with either of those publications... I'll have to research them to learn more....

In one Captain Planet episode, you could say that there was a crossover with the TMNT. The characters DID think that the TMNT showed up.

To quote the first Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo theme song...

Say what?

Anti-drugs
 

Don't forget to remember that anti-drugs episode with 1987 Michelangelo.

Yeah, you'd have to include Ducktales, Winnie the Pooh & Tigger, Slimer, Bugs and Daffy, the Muppet Babies, Alf, Garfield, and Alvin & the Chipmunks!

Well I'll be pooped on and wrapped up in a tortilla... how could I have forgotten Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue?

when did they cross over with panda khan in the mirage comic? weren't the turtles also in equine the uncivilized and miami mice?

The Fifth Turtle
 

And in "The Fifth Turtle" when Raphael asks Zach if he's gonna call the "Ghostbusters".

Isn't that Captain Planet episode that too?

That's more a reference, not a crossover.

Here's the story on Vanguard:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanguard_(Image_Comics)

Didn't have a long run in his own series, but did cross over with the TMNT in the Image series.

I wouldn't count it as much of a cross over... but in an old Mother Goose and Grimmy comic, Hamm asks what the difference between Michelangelo and Leonardo (the artists). Grimmy answers "Michelangelo has the orange mask, Leonardo has the blue one." and he's watching TMNT on a television set in the last panel. But then again, that's parody. You could even consider the Animaniacs bit a crossover by that logic.

Fairy tales
 

TMNT also made a crossover with those Fairy tales in those Easter Bunny episodes of the 1987 cartoon.

Can that really count as a crossover?

Sherlock Holmes
 

Don't forget Sherlock Holmes in the 1987 cartoon's "Elementary, My Dear Turtle" episode.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't count as a crossover if the character in question is in public domain.

Shredder's New Sword
 

If you don't care about that, there's also "Shredder's New Sword" with those King Arthur characters.

And that's mythology.

References
 

I think we also could have a thread about references. Wikipedia had once, but now it's been deleted.

The Wild West C.O.W boys of Moo Mesa were also in an ep of Fast Forward.

Also Tales of the TMNT 52 out in November will be a crossover with Mirage and TMNT Adventures as Cudley the Cowlick will be appearing as well as a return of the Wild West C.O.W boys of Moo Mesa.

Tales of the TMNT #52
 

You mean "Tales of the TMNT #52"? (see http://www.ninjaturtles.com/html/upcoming.html).

Updated the list a bit, and decided to add Sherlock Holmes anyway; Wikipedia lists things like Batman/Tarzan as crossovers, so I though, why the hell not.

Well TMNT Archie crossed over with Archie who crossed over with Punisher from the Marvel universe who has had crossovers with Godzilla who has crossovers with almost anything Japanese. And Marvel has crossovers with DC Comics that makes the list way too big ;)

I mean we'd have Street Fighter, all of capcom, SNK, Mario Bros, Link, Pikachu, Austin Powers, Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny just out of the top of my head.

I think you guys forgot about the Power Rangers, back when The Next Mutation was on

Arthur Conan Doyle
 

When did it became public domain? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Conan_Doyle died in 1930 and the episode first aired in 1993.

Nope, The S has it in the first post of the thread.

Today
 

As you see, that article was edited today (4 November 2008), I do't know if "Power Rangers" was listed there before, I don't remember that.

Pretty sure it was. Even so, S's latest edit was done before jimmy's posting.

Mutanimals
 

Can the Mutanimals from Archie be counted as a crossover? I know they were originally the same comic book.

Mutanimals are more of a spin-off of Archie TMNT. Maybe this thread deserves a spin-off notation. Like for Fugitoid and Gizmo in Mirage?

EDIT: Still no Vanguard notation on Image crossovers? Man, tough crowd! Among all obscure superheroes, he's probably the one I'm most interested in learning more about. Don't ask me why, cuz I don't know. He just seems like he has so much backstory! He's an alien life-form who has an April O'Neil like reporter-girlfriend (or at least she wore a jumpsuit in the TMNT Image issues) and a robot/pet that likes to change into stuff even though it's not supposed to have independent thoughts!

And he's funky looking! What's not to love?

Nah. Since they started in TMNT, their own comic would be a spin-off from it.

Yes
 

Yes, but they still returned to the TMNT stories sometimes.

Yes, they did. But would still be from the fact that's where they started. The most that could be said of for a 'crossover' is on the basics of a story from TMNT Adventures continuing in an issue of Mutanimals and going back to another issue of TMNT. As the Mutanimals went back to being in TMNT Adventures (when their own comic ended).

It's been on there since the topic started.

That doesn't matter. The character became public domain, I'm 99% sure. Edgar Rice Burroughs died in 1950, and the character of Tarzan (but not the name, apparently) is public domain in the US. And it doesn't matter because I threw Holmes on the list anyway.

Cheese and Crackers, man, I forgot. He's there now. Happy? :p

Yup. 8)

[BTW, apparently, posts have to be ten characters long to get put up on the board]

Why?
 

Why did their comic books end? Bad sales?

I like Vanguard allot and was super happy he and the turtles crossed paths in image, I am on the other hand not happy that I can't own this.
