Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Magazine

[pannoni1]

As far as the list of the pullout posters, I know the following:

Fall 1990: Donatello in front of moon
Winter 1991: Michelangelo on the streets?
Spring 1991: Leonardo (see above)
Summer 1991: Raphael in sewer
Fall 1991: Splinter on Rock
Winter 1992: Shredder (looks a lot like 2K3 version) on fire
Fall 1992: Raphael with Jack O'Lantern
Winter 1993: Donatello on arm of robotic creature (incorrectly states as Pullout #11 when it is actually #10).
Spring 1993: All four turtles in sewers
Summer 1993: Michelangelo floating in space above Earth

I'm guessing for the other two posters perhaps Spring 1992 was April and Summer 1992 was another Leonardo?

Remember, Jester, TMNT comics taught us that all corporations are evil, evil, EVIL. CEOs sit around twirling their mustaches and scheming of new ways to kill the environment.

Hmm... well, maybe it's not that much of stretch come to think about it.

No, April never appeared on a poster (would have been cool to see a Dooney drawing of her though).

Spring 1992 was a Casey Jones poster and Summer 1992 was Mikey meeting a dinosaur.

Krang compiled a full gallery of covers and posters on the Main Site.

With space suit, I hope. I hate seing any living character being in space (or on a planet or asteroid without breahable atmosphere) without space suit.

Here's a little bonus, the story of April catching the "Phantom of the Pizza Parlor" from the Spring 1992 issue:

Are people sentenced to prison for stealing pizza cheese in the USA?

I need to bump this for research purposes (and because this magazine was just so cool...)

The important thing is that we kids were taught to think that would be the case.

And it must have worked, because I've never even heard of any single instance of pizza cheese theft.

I would like to see all the covers of this magazine listed in sequential order (including any variants). The numerology of this series makes absolutely no sense to me. To confirm, there were only 13 different issues?

This should help with that: http://www.flickr.com/photos/4930978...7626135811150/

The way I follow the publishing order is that the sequential order sequence goes: Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall.

The first issue came out in Summer of 1990, so the order would be:
#1 Summer 1990
#2 Fall 1990
#3 Winter 1991
#4 Spring 1991
#5 Summer 1991
#6 Fall 1991
#7 Winter 1992
#8 Spring 1992
#9 Summer 1992
#10 Fall 1992
#11 Winter 1993
#12 Spring 1993 (additional variant cover exists)
#13 Summer 1993

And I think the Secret of the Ooze issue was a special issue without a number or a date.

The One True Shredder (formerly known as DarthCJJ) hooked me up with a copy of the Summer 1991 issue and I found a bizarre sight in the video game preview section.

They advertised a prototype for the original Sonic the Hedgehog game:


But anybody who knows the game should be able to tell this a FAR different take on the Marble Garden Zone. I realize most games of the era would go through big changes in their development stages (just look at the screenshots on the back of the Super Mario Bros. 3 box art), but this was a neat little surprise to me.

Yeah that's interesting isn't it? I like it because Sonic and TMNT are my top two favorite franchises ever. Does anyone know if in the TMNT Magazine Summer 1992 issue has any "board game" style section in it? For instance, there was a "board game" you could play in the original TMNT Magazine, where there any games or seek and finds in the Summer 1992 issue?

Warrior Dragon

So that Warrior Dragon pre-dates the Archie one?

There is a word search and a treasure hunt in the Summer 1992 issue; you're lucky I saw this thread before I decided to make a lot on eBay with all of these I have left, because they'll probably go quickly when I do.

No, there wasn't any special comic in that one. It was mostly photographs from the film.

[Enscripture]

If you just want to see the cover+comic, I have them all scanned here. Since It's highly unlikely that this will be reprinted, I can scan the whole magazines eventually by request. I know I have like 2 fully scanned. The one's that say tmnt only or no ads are from my older scanner so I'll probably rescan those. They were from when I was just starting to learn photoshop so they aren't all perfect.

Try it again. Redid the link in my previous post. Tell me if it works.
