Pat Lee's TMNT

TMNT is cooler than MOTU · 01-26-2003, 08:45 PM

Has any preview art or confirmed release dates been set for the new series by David and Lee???

**azure turtle** · 01-26-2003, 10:22 PM

Nothing just yet, but I'm sure we'll start getting news after the cartoon debuts. I'd love to see some preview art...

*Eye of Sarnath* · 01-27-2003, 01:30 PM

Mmmm, yes. Can't wait, even more TMNT merchandise to spend my money on.

**HorseTechie** · 01-27-2003, 02:57 PM

Yah.. I can only speculate. And provided it will be Pat Lee who is going to work on it. He does pencils and illustrations mostly, with other folks doing the coloring andthe story line. But his sttyle is pretty good, be it TF or human. Does make me wonder what a Pat Lee Turtle will look like!

Here's some of the stuff I've seen him do... that we could speculate by....

DarkMinds cover (this reminds me of Karai for some reason)

G1 Transformer cover

Sunstreaker Sketch

More Pat Lee sketches....

Am I the oly one who haven't seen any official mention of the artist?

*heretic888* · 01-30-2003, 12:10 PM

beaker · 01-30-2003, 05:41 PM

Seeing what Pat Lee has done for other Dreamwave titles...I can only say I am beyond excited for this comic! In fact, beaisdes the Ghost in the Shell 2
and Sandscape comic series, Id have to say this is one of my most excited for series in 2003.

Pat Lee confirmed it in Wizard magazine a couple of issues ago. It was a tiny article, with Pat saying that he was pretty excited to be drawing turtles.

I'm gonna give this topic a litte bump, since over on the New TMNT Discussion boards we've been talking about Pat Lee's art. I think it looks pretty good here.

I dunno if I have said this before, but Peter David is one of my favorite writers... (Novel and Comic wise) I think there is a chance for this to be a GREAT book, so long as the art is good.

Yes, it does.

Then I went through some of his most recent work for Armada and a few other new TF covers on other forums where all the TF fans are moaning and groaning over how his style has changed for the worse (kinda like Lawson), thus drawing all the TF's very "fat" in appearance.

But I'm just going to continue to sit tight hang keep faith in DW until it all is officially released.

Peter David wrote (writes?) DC's "Young Justice" (the comic with Robin, Impulse, Superboy, ect.) right? Or am I horribly off? If he did than I think the TMNT are in good hands.

Yes, he did write Young Justice. He's also written Hulk, Captain Marvel, Supergirl, Spider-Man 2099, and a slew of other comics and Star Trek novels.

Im truly excited to read his take on TMNT...

I would like to say, Pat Lee's art is looking better these days, There was a time where it was very bland, and the characters lacked depth, but from those samples, I can see he has improved.

CookSux · 03-11-2003, 11:18 PM

Keep in mind, those samples are a collaboration between the penciller (most likely Pat Lee), and inker, and a colorist. The pencils are just a rough base that inkers tend to alter, and inks can also be altered by colorists. Basically you won't get an exact product of what you originally draw unless you do it all yourself, even still you're bound to correct mistakes. Now, Pat Lee is a great artist... and most definitly not the best around. Personally I prefer Udon over Dreamwave, but Udon is a tiny subsidiary that works on many different projects. Check out the last couple issues of Deadpool for awesome art!

Now, LeS is the one in charge of the TMNT miniseries and I abhor his take on the characters. I haven't seen how Pat Lee would handle it, but I am afraid... his take on the Transformers aren't exactly the best around...

**Karpo_007** · 03-12-2003, 06:38 AM

Yeah it seems it isn't Pat Lee's TMNT afterall.
