Favorite version of the Turtles?
 

Or if you prefer "favorite Turtle continuity". Bear with me as I haven't read the original comics so I don't quite know what I'm talking about in terms of comics. Mine would be the original cartoon. It seemed to have the most original ideas (Bebop and Rocksteady, Krang, Shredder being less threatening, the Turtles' love for pizza, Baxter Stockman turning into a fly, April being the Channel 6 reporter, Channel 6, the Technodrome, the Rock Soldiers, Dimension X, the Neutrinoes, Splinter being Hamato Yoshi and not his pet, the Foot Soldiers being robots, and more). Even though it was a kids cartoon, it was awesome.

I voted for the mirage comics
but the movie version was tempting
but those 2 seem the same........in a way.

:-?

Well, I first was introduced to the turtles, like many, by the old cartoon. But I've grown since, and appreciate the more mature Mirage/first movie versions more. I think, in time, the new cartoon may become my favorite, as I absolutely love it so far, and if it keeps up the way it has been, it may be the best synthesis of the Mirage universe and old cartoon. Will it become the definitive TMNT? Who knows, but it's a possibility--and so is my liking of it the best.

Well I guess I'm kind of biased since I haven't read the comics or seen the new cartoon so I'll have to go with the original cartoon.
I wonder how many votes The Next Mutation will get.... :lol:

New cartoon! I love it, it's awesome, I can't think of enough good things to say about it.

As for me, it's a tie between Mirage comics, TMNT movie #1 and the new cartoon.

I agree, actually. I was introduced to Ninja Turtles through the first movie and moved onto the Mirage comics from there, so I tend to prefer that sort of version. The new cartoon is ringing my chime for much that reason, although I'd probably enjoy it even without that background. Don't get me wrong, I watched and loved the old cartoon and read the Archie comics, but My favorites by far are the three Anarchistguy listed.

i voted mirage, but this new toon is damn close, w/ the movie a close third

to let ya know, the new mirage is the same as old mirage, there was just that gap for a few years between the vol2 and vol 4..


what is considered vol 3 is it image or archie? i always wondered this cuz vol4 is really the 5th vol

i like the new toons,and nobody voted for the next mutation

what the hell how can you be in this forum and not have seen the new show.

Original Mirage.

I vote for the old cartoon, expecially for the 1989 - 1990 Season

original cartoon
they looked nicer :wink: :P

Mirage.

The movie and new cartoon really attempts to get close, and manages to be entertaining in their own ways, but the original Mirage is always one step ahead...

I picked the Archie TMNT comics because I always loved those stories. The series was able to keep the humor of the original cartoon but throw in some of the more serious feel of Mirage.

Gotta go with archie, I love Ninjara, the future TMNT, Null, and they had the coolest ways to kill people.
I have yet to see a death as cool as seeing a giant cockroach turned into a crystal, then explode in the hands of a nnews jornalist. And I love the way they present so many diffrent religions

You should add Original toon (1987-1993) and (1994-1996) because they were pretty different.

True their personality changed between those seasons.
I think i'll go with the old toon :D but i like almost all the tmnt versions.

wait, their personalites changed later on?! Did Mikey still like pizza?!

I can't believe you left off COOTS! :x So it's original toon for me. :D

---delete this

Is that a rhetorical question? I think it goes without saying it won't get any :wink:

Heeeey... what about the Red Sky version??? That's gotta be seperated from the old cartoons version... they took a whole new approach with it.

Yes they did, they actually renewed the series and the ratings went up. But CBS still decided to cancell it...

New Toon, since I haven't read any of the comics.


BTW, I'm waiting for the Dreamwave editions to come out since I can't stand looking at art in B&W.

Ooo... eee.. hard choice!

But I voted for teh orginal Mirage Comics... cause if it wasn't for them, none of the others would have even existed! :wink:

I also like the movies, and the new FoxBox cartoon as well now.

IGNORAMUS!!!
:D

Well now I'm gonna think about voting for TNM just to spite you people... :D

I agree with AG, perse, and Donatello. I voted for the Mirage comics, but the new cartoon, and the 1st movie are excellent versions of TMNT continuity as well.

Although I think Krangfan is mistaken for lumping all 3 movies under one continuity. The first movie is far better and far different than the other 2 films.

Also Donatello, Image was volume 3. It was supposed to be a continuation of all the events in Mirage. It was later scrapped when Vol. 4 came out.

The newest cartoon has only aired in the US so far so I'll have to wait a few months before I can compare the show to the others.

I went with mirage
there the best but the first move was good
and I really like the new cartoon


and I feal sorry for those who havent seen the new show :P

lol, yeah, sorry about that :goofygri: . Personally I like the 2nd movie best, but that's just me :)

OLD CARTOON! And who the crap voted for the next mutation?

Yes, It most likely is just you... ;)

:roll: lol, yeah, :cry:


btw, nice sig Sparvid!

yeah, that is great, that was probably my favorite and least favorite episode of beast wars, cuz dinobot is my favorite character in all the transformers universe

I know where you live... :evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

:tlol:

the next mutation has one vote!!!!!!! :o

I will crush you :evilgrin:

(just kidding) :P

The Movies got my vizzote...
They just looked so REAL in the first movie..
I cant help it...the REALISM!
