Do you think Nick will do a "City at War" arc?
 
Do you think Nick will do a "City at War" arc? How I see it being done is thatvafter Shredder is "gone" the russian mob(Sterankos Gang), the purple dragons(Huns gang), the southern american gang (Xevers gang), and Don Viziosos gang fight for territory all over the city because Shredder is gone and none of them have to be loyal to the foot. Perhaps Bradford and Tiger Claw might stay along side Karai trying to fight and keep foot territory . I would also assume that Anton Zeck would go with the Russian mob because him and Steranko are friends.

You've got some cool ideas, but I don't see the point in adapting City at War for the Nick toon. Maybe the 2k3 adaption just left a bad taste in my mouth, but the content of the CaW comic doesn't seem suited to a Saturday morning cartoon for kids. The subject matter could potentially bore them.

I absolutely adore the comic and only want to see it honored in cartoon form if they can truly nail it.

How bout Same As it Never Was?

They'll probably do a loose adaptation of it at some point. I will agree that the 4Kids version of it did suck but I don't really think it's because they made it for kids, I think it has more to do with the fact that it just became filler rather than a conclusion as it was in the comics. Now if they do it as a conclusion it's probably going to be fine, but like with 4kids, yeah it's probably going to be a filler arc that's not very good...

Yeah, they could do that just fine.

I think it would depend on how they could do it. They probably couldn't go all out with the comic references if it's originally not really for kids, but I think they could pull it off in some way.

I love to see a City at War arc.

That would be awesome but I expect that most people (including me) from the fandom (especially on Tumblr) will have an emotional breakdown.

Was SAINW from the comics, or was that something strictly done for the 2K3 show?

As far as I understand it's a 4Kids original story with some nods to the Image run.

I really like Nicks Rat King so it would be cool to see him in this arc like he was in the comics.

Powder 07-31-2015 11:05 PM

I could see that happening after the space shenanigans, but I dunno. Do we really need to see it done again?

I'd rather see some other underrated media adapted, like the battle nexus/intergalactic wrestling federation stuff, or Mark Martin's Mirage stories.

Bry 07-31-2015 11:13 PM

I feel like it's inevitable - the Nick team seems to want to adapt, or loosely adapt, a lot of the key Mirage stuff. But unless they're willing to put the goofiness and most of the comedy aside almost entirely for that storyline's run, I'm kind of iffy about the prospect.

Maybe it could work as an extended series finale, though? That might be the only way I can see it being done "right" - when the show's wrapping up anyway and they maybe don't have to worry so much about drawing in the younger crowd for the last run of episodes.

I'm sure we'll get an adaptation, who knows if it'll be a few episodes long or a season long arc. I do agree that I'd like to see a lot of other stuff be adapted, Battle Nexus being one of my top requests.

Yes, with some nods to "Shredderville" of the 1987 cartoon.
