Would you have liked Image if TMNT hadn't been disfigured?
 

I asked a similar question about the Next Mutation...

Many people claim to dislike the Image series because of the TMNT's injuries. They personally didn't bother me. I loved the Image TMNT because I thought it had great characterisation and realistic dialogue. What about everyone else? Had the TMNT not been injured, what would you have thought?

I liked it with the injuries it made it really intresting. It was probly to out there for alota people to grasp

1. The writing was horrible, barring the Rapahael as Shredder story-arc

2. Dontatello as a Cyborg was pitiful, and was just there so fans would talk, when all they did was YAWN

the writting was fine...minus the stupid mobster crap I hate that sh1t..I quite enjoyed the inclusion of image characters....
I also don't find it pitifull that don was a cyborg and it seems to me that it didn't make them yawn at the time it pissed everyone off and it still seems to be having the same affect after all these years..
:roll:
but I will say one thing even if this person says there now you know who..they sure as hell act like you know who.

While I like how Mr. Laird isn't including the Image universe in to the new stuff, I actually liked the Image comics. They had all of the classic TMNT characters like the Triceratons (invading Earth, by the way...like the next Season...hmm...isn't that interesting), Leatherhead, Ultroms, Casey, Splinter, April, and a whole lot of them. I just hated all of those stupid characters cross overs with Savage Dragon. I think that is such a lame character.

I think I would have liked it a little better if Leo, Don, and Raph were still in tact. The Cyborg thing got to be a little overkill after a while. :sleep:

Some of the villian ideas were kinda cool. I kinda like the idea of a rabid half-bat Splinter, but I'm not quite sure why. (Maybe I like demons? I dunno.) The astral plane stuff was all right too, but it was getting a little too close to NM for comfort.

I never had much problems with the Image series, except for Cyborg Don, so yeah, it would have been better for me but....

MC = Jarrah White no?

Look at the topics he starts, even one about Jarrah's banning, when he only had posted 3 or 4 times....suspicious

edit: hadn't read the topics in general through, sorry for this comment to MC (still suspicious though :wink: )

Hi Bufo. No, I am not Jarrah White! Go to the "General TMNT Discussion" forms and check the "Would you have liked Next Mutation if Venus hadn't been?" thread. It is discussed over there.

The reason I ask why Jarrah was banned is because I have been reading these threads for months, but never registered. I would usually only go on-line once a week or so. Now that I have broadband I am on-line 24/7, and so decided to register. I was always amused by the fights between Jarrah and Zaurius Two, and Jarrah's obsession with Venus and the Next Mutation, (not to mention any other turtle characters). I sort of miss the guy...he gave me a laugh.

what did he do to get banned anyway? hopefully not for his love for Venus. Hated or not, Venus is still a character. I'd hate to see anyone banned cause they liked Cyborg Don.

They say he posted a pic of his turtle Jarrah White ****ing Venus.

Its on red loinesses site go check it out if u want

I've said it before, but I won't get into depth about it again. Basically put, I really enjoyed the Image run, disfigurations and all. I would've liked for Image to have at least gotten a chance to end up its loose ends.

I didn't like every angle of the image series, But I didn't despise it eighter. It was an enjoyable enough read and filled the gap left while there were no Ninja Turtles projects going on....I don't count Next Mutation, That was a good concept ruined quite thouroghly. And the Image books did tell good stories, even if I would have liked the out come of events more if done differently. It was cool seeing their interpertaion of how the TMNT would handle certain events. It was just there take on things, after all. I would have like to see somethings tied up a little nicer, But hey! hat's the way it goes in the comics bizz.

Splinter turned into a vampire bat and the TMNT were forced to kill him, right?

Personally, I prefer his death from the heart attack in volume 4. Seemed more..."realistic", and a much easier way to go for the character. No melodrama.

I don't know if he exactly died. He did show up later, stating that Raphael's little Astral-Planage Sai-in-the-back somehow 'healed' him. It was weird.

He didn't die. Raph's healer friend in the foot cured him, I think. After that he went back to being the splinter we know and love.

Ah. Okay, thanks.

How was that stupid? Raph's a vampire now and nobody seems to have a problem with that
