OK I searched the web and the forums and couldn't find ANYTHING about these. So if anyone knows could you tell me where the pictures on these sites are from!?

OMG...

These caps come from "Turtle Turncoat" - a fancomic made by Tony Day. You can view it online, as it is a webcomic :) Tony is a member of the Drome, actually. Here's "his" thread:

I wonder if he knows about those ytmnds using his artworks...:|

There is one by "TokyoPop", but it just follows the new toon storyline. Besides, they hardly have any to make a roll of toilet paper with :roll: Besides, they have the characters mixed up. I made a link about it before. I'll see if I can find it....

There apparently has been a TMNT manga back in the mid 90s or so but I think it's out of print. I've been to plently of Japanese bookstores and have never found them.

http://www.ninjaturtles.com/comics/manga.htm - if anyone's interested in that mid-90s manga samples.

As for the ytmnd- it's definitely Tony Day's work. The first link is based on page 25, the second - page 44. The last one is based on the page that was rejected from the official plot but still can be viewed in the prototype section of Tony's site.

I check eBay for em every now and then. They never show up.

If I could get my hands on some I'd do a translation like I do for the 80's Transformers manga at www.tfarchive.com

Thanks for the help. I saw those YMNTDs and thought it looked cool. Dudes art is pretty good.

I believe those YTMND pages are our very own ZariusTwo's handywork, if I'm not mistaken.

If I ever find them at the Bookstores, Ill let you know. If they dont have extras Im sure I can scan whatever I get. (I live by 3 Japanese bookstores)

Wow not bad.....:-) I like it..bt whats with comic guys and big boobs? It's becoming way overrated in comics imo

Same reason guys in comics are overly muscular.

I was kind of thinking the same..... but anyways besides the lack of clothes tony did an amazing job I really like his comic style

I have seen this before on a thread ages ago. As for him using my stuff, i don't mind really. Bit weird just having the odd page with a little sample, Some of em r quite funny though.

So, three of the Japanese ones were released of that wierd "Saint Seiya"/ Wolverine copycat series?

The ones that are adaptions of the TV show (the American one, right?) sound interresting... those shorts at the end with the saggy, idiot Shredder look fragging hilarious!

That would be VERY cool.

I checked every CD/Book Off store and smaller bookstore I could find while I was in Japan last summer, but no luck finding any TMNT manga. Can't say I'm too surprised. The stuff was from the late 80's and early 90's, and to my knowledge, was only reprinted once in the mid 90's in the form of a box set containing the entire series.

The stuff's probably super-rare, even in Japan.

does turtle turncoat even get updated anymore? i read up on it and waited over a month for a new page, then gave up and lost the url... *goes and checks*
