"TMNT: Bebop & Rocksteady Hit The Road" #1 Preview and Discussion
 

First look:

The car looks like a Foot Cruiser. The car design and color are no mistake, a homage to the original toy line.

Haha, I love how the two tone color scheme is due to rust rather than stylistic choice.

Rocksteady cutting off his own ear to prevent reverse mutation isn't exactly something I expected to see. Is he just going to run around without an ear from now on?

Damn, Rocksteady. Vincent Van Gogh much? :tlol:

Aha, I knew the EPF would be going after those two eventually! Can't wait to see what She-Hun's got, too. That body doesn't seem to be all-natural at all...

Why is Rocksteady's eye blood red?

I am...very concerned about Ravenwood's proportions :teek: . Those arms, man...and DAMN she sure looks young and fresh for someone who was part of the EPF in 1955! There's way more going on than good genetics and getting buff to a frightening extreme. But I'm sure we'll get an explanation for that.


She'll be a great foil to Bishop if she sticks around though due to their differences of opinion on mutants, though.

So the story is that Bebop and Rocksteady are going up against the EPF...

... There's nothing inherently wrong about concept, it's just that the meta of it weirds me out a little. The Fred Wolf cartoon was basically an in name only adaptation by design, while the 4Kids show was all about remixing Mirage and ignoring all previous adaptations. Basically, they had virtually nothing in common by design. So to have characters so intensely emblematic of one go up against a faction so essential to the other, it just kinda feels weird, you know?

We have an actual name now, Ravenwood. So we can just stick to that? Anyway, she seems like a good boss. What's interesting here is that she doesn't know Bebop and Rocksteady started out as human, I wonder how her plan is going change when she finds that out?


Seems like he added to his tattoos.

I just remembered what she makes me think of!

Oh, I know. And this is actually the first time I'm referring to her as such but I just love the She-Hun nickname. :D

Ravenwood seems promising!

And EPF and a rival to Bishop to boot?

Hell yeah.

Wait this came out? I can't find it anywhere.

It's just a preview right now.

Ravenwood a relative of Dr. Abigail Finn?

:tlol:

If in the "Battle Lines" (or later) Agent Bishop out of the game, then Ravenwood can take his place and the EPF will stop hunting for turtles and other mutants. Something like Karai and Foot in Mirage-verse after "City at War".

Good point! She seems much more benevolent, and should have an even further change of heart after she realizes Bebop and Rocksteady started out human.

IDK, it seems a bit early to remove Bishop from the story.

However, I wouldn't be too surprised if it ends with Ravenwood basically dragging Bishop off the island by the ear :lol: . I guess the next step from there would be for Ravenwood to attempt patching things over and working with the residents.

I can't help but imagine this is basically how things would go down between her and Zom
