It’s the Turtles’ first ever Comics Giveaway Day and it’s packed! Three different animated universes arrive on the page: Saturday Morning Adventures, Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and of course, Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Expect a wide range of adventures, going everywhere from Thanksgiving Day parades to comic book conventions. Cowabunga!

You beat me by one minute, you fu€ker.

I wonder if the SMA story will be the glimpse we got of the giant turkey mech towards the end of #41.

It’s the Turtles’ first ever Comics Giveaway Day

How is this different from Free Comic Book Day, apart from the name?

Also, is it odd that I think that the Saturday Morning Adventures Turtles look like they are descending from a balloon of Rise Raphael and Tales Michelangelo and Leonardo? As this is a free comic I doubt there would be other covers showcasing the Rise and Tales Turtles and it can be tricky getting twelve Turtles on a single page, but Saturday Turtles are given more focus here, not the "beloved" Tales Turtles.

Now that looks bonkers but in a fun way!

Free Comic Book Day was a copywritten trademark owned by Diamond Distribution Company. They went bankrupt a few years ago and they have been in legal limbo for a long time.
FCBD got caught in the mix and now the events where free comics are given out are not allowed to be called "Free Comic Book Day" in any promo or print, legal crap, y’know.

Ya know, I didn’t give this any thought when I saw the cover but you make a good point. SMA was cancelled last year but “Tales” is still going and if rumors are true, there will be another arc after Tear in Time so it’ll still be going when this drops. Weird.

I will say I think the concept for the cover comes from the fact that I think the SMA story is Thanksgiving Parade themed, so that at least makes some sense.
