Future Shark

*Original TMNT Cartoon Fan* · 08-21-2008, 04:30 PM

In the Archie comics, Splinter is seen preventing the TMNT from follow Shredder and Baxter Stockman in "The Incredible Shrinking Turtles", just like in the 1987 cartoon episode with the same name and story. In the 1987 cartoon, the story countinues with the Eye of Sarnath stories, and the Archie comics changes to "Something Fishy Goes Down" and the Eye of Sarnath seems forgotten. But in the "Future Shark" trilogy, a flashback of "The Incredible Shrinking Turtles" shows Leonardo follow Shredder and Baxter Stockman down a ladder to the the basement of the cheese packing plant, and Armaggon appears from the time portal and goes with Shredder from the present to the future. I wonder:

*Why does Leonardo go to the basement, when Splinter is seen preventing the turtles from following Shredder and Baxter Stockman?
*Baxter Stockman didn't follow Shredder and Armaggon to the future, what happened to him in the Archie comics: (He couldn't escape up the ladder as Leonardo was just climbing down it)?
*Just after Shredder and Armaggon arrive in the future, the time machine explodes. How can Shredder be back in "Something Fishy Goes Down"?
