"Road Hogs" comic
 
This would be a comic you've missed if you didn't pick up the Palladium stuff (I believe it's the only comic in the entire Palladium material that is only available within the sourcebooks themselves).

Contained within the "Road Hogs" sourcebook. It depicts a Raphael almost 100 years into our future, still ticking, and playing Splinter to a new generation of TMNT that have mutated after the fallout of a devastating nuclear war.

We don't know what the names are. But I think it's cute how Raph's old mind keeps slipping, and continuously refers to all of them as "Mike." Ornery old codger.

Exactly, and very poignant. While it's a short comic, and maybe they didn't even put this level of thought into it (though they may have, I have no idea), it raises interesting questions...

Does he keep calling them Mike simply because of some fond remembrance of Mike, whom he called his best friend in Vol. 1 (probably)? Is it because of something else, perhaps some deep-seated subconscious guilt of something that happened between him and Mike decades before? Maybe some kind of warped survivor guilt, that he's the only TMNT left?

In one of the books, I think those militant pigs and cattle were the basis of Playmates Barnyard Commandos.

Awesome. Thanks for scanning this rare piece in. I'll add it to my Mirage timeline. It can keep "Old Times" company in the Possible Future category.

So what comic did this comic come from? Is it Mirage Studios?

Which is a companion piece to "TMNT & Other Strangeness."

Could this be connected somehow to "The Last Ronin"?

Diorm 02-27-2020 07:57 PM

Oh thanks Andrew, I didnt know you scanned those pages. I was looking for them.

How so? By last Ronin you mean Raph? But why is Don seems to always be the last turtle in the futur but not in this one.

That site sure seems... Primitive? The source code is clearly not made with any CMS, it's way too short for that, it doesn't even have CSS or Javascript elements. When did you upload this thing?

Oh, OK. The "limited time" thing threw me off, 13 years isn't exactly what I'd call "limited time".

Diorm 02-28-2020 05:25 PM

Shhh!
Dont remind him!

Hand-written html, those were the days. No ads (not much), no evil scripts, no like buttons, no click bait evrywhere.
