Which version of TMNT do you consider most official?
 

yeah. The movies for me. The first and second one, anyways.

Hard to say. I mean, considering the fact that they're all official, and officiality is all it needs to be official, I'd say that they're all as official as the others.

Therefore, pointless thread.

The Mirage comics of course. I'll always consider those the definitive TMNT.

They are all official, just like Anarky said. But, I'd say the comics has to be the one getting my vote. No, they are no more official than the others (and I can't say I've read that many - about two or such), but they were the first to come... ;)

...How stupid is this thread?


There all official in one way or another, licensed by Mirage for use in any measure.

Official... :-? Well Mirage is the original, every other form is just defferent interpretation of it. But like being said, every one of the choices are officially licensed by Mirage, so they are all official.

The comics....they started everything

I don't think he's talking about licensing...he means official more in a sense of the definitive tmnt....i don't think "official" was a good choice word..though i think it's all a matter of opinion, but i would say the comics since its their roots...

In that sense, I would pic Mirage too, though only the ones that are actually part of the TMNT story line.

The comics between the first 11 issues and City At War were just silly random little stories done by random artists. I don't count those at all.

The comics, although I picked new show I just scaned through and missed comics. (I must have thought it was just shows or movies) The old show got me into the TMNT the first movie was very good imo and fairly true to the comics but I think the new show got me into the TMNT agina and thus the comics where I feel they would be most official to me although its true they are all official licenced TMNT properties I guess the comics are how they were meant to be and their true form. Although the new show has done an awesome job recreating it and also expanding on it and making some small changes which I am really enjoying.

considering the fact that they're all official
Say what? So officially Shredder is an utrom and officially Shredder isn't an utrom? Officialy Spilnter is Hamoto Yoshi and officially he was always a rat? officially Shredder created the mutagen, oficially the Utrom's created the mutagen and officially that doctor from the movies from the TGRI building made it? Hmm...

Well you didnt put "Which one has the the true offcial story" or something so if you think about it the way you asked it they are all offcial. All offcially owned by Laird and put out offcially by their side company. If your asking which has the Offcial story it's obviously the comics and in which case this thread isnt a question that is a matter of opinion it's just a question with a very obvious right answer

Errr...YES, If you had bothered re-interpreting the question, you'd know everything licensed from the original creators IS official in it's own individual canon in any capacity.

If I should say the most offical ninaja turtles should be the comics.. The comics created the show (1987-1996), then the movies (1990's), the next mutations (don't care, was on foxkids), the new show (2003-present)

The new ninja turtles follow closely to the comics but they had to change some stuff so it wasn't as violence.

Actually the Utroms made ooze not mutagen.

Both the new and old. Equally in their own ways. I voted for the new one, because it needs help.

Comics definatly.

I voted for the oringinal show, but the comics are the obvious answer.
