TMNT vs........ (Fantasy Match Ups)

*RaphaelinSTL* · 08-24-2014, 01:10 AM

I was spending too much time a bit ago watching fan made animations and ridiculous GTA PC characters of TMNT fighting other comic book and pop culture characters that I started thinking about how much I love the idea of the Turtles taking on other big franchise names. I thought I'd start a thread for people giving their own opinions on the idea and what match ups they'd like to see.

I think what appeals to me the most is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles facing the Hulk. Something about that visual sticks out to me with the Turtles having their incredible ninja training taking on someone as powerful and unstoppable as Bruce Banner when he takes on his Hulk form.

Plus, how awesome is this?

What are your thoughts on how that fight would go? I would like to think the Turtles would find a way to take him down. Oh, and what are some fantasy fights you've thought about the Turtles having!

They do this sort of hypothetical 'battle' between fictional characters on Comic Vine quite often. I believe they have a whole section devoted to it, and often post conditions for the battles. I don't post there but I lurk now and then. I've seen debates on Turtles vs some of the X-Men, Turtles vs Wolverine himself, The Foot vs the Hand, Shredder vs Magneto, the turtles vs one another etc. If you fancy it you should take a look on there because some of these guys have an almost encyclopaedic knowledge of Marvel in particular.

That photo is a thing of beauty, btw. You're right.

Yeah, while researching fan art of TMNT vs. the Hulk I ended up on Comic Vine. Cool stuff!

And yeah, that picture is quite stunning!

Yeah, the battles section is interesting but the site is full of knowledgeable people in general. There's quite a few good comic book sites out ther e- Comic Vine, Comic Book Resources, Superhero Hype etc. Lots of good stuff on superheroes as well as non-superhero books and independents.

It's an excellent photo, yes, but I won't lie; I am not much of a Hulk fan myself. I've just never taken the time to read any of his stories, but I'm sure that would change if I did. As far as the Marvel characters go I'm more drawn to Daredevil, the X-Men, Captain America and Spiderman.

For a more sci-fi storyline, I'd love to see a match up / team up with the turtles and DCs Lobo. I think it would be perfect thematically. Lobo is an extra-terrestrial bounty hunter and the turtles do their fair share of dimension hopping. Lobo can also be very slap stick and campy which wouldn't be a hard fit. His darker side would make for great chemisty with Raph too.

For a more grounded urban match up, I think Batman would be a good candidate. Like the turtles, he has no superpowers and they could all be part of a vigilante / detective storyline without one side grossly overpowering the other. (that's why I used to cringe when Supes and Bats went toe to toe. Team up sure, but for the love of God Bruce, just think for a second.

) Could take place in NYC or Gotham. Just keep it dark, gritty, and urban.

I would personally love to see a fight between Raphael and Wolverine.

Next to the TMNT, Batman was always my favorite comic book series. Lately, with how much I didn't like The Dark Knight Rises and how bored I've become with most of his current DC line and I've been totally invigorated with TMNT (even if I didn't enjoy the new movie whatsoever) and I'd love to see a battle between those two! Leo and Batman would be epic.

Lobo and the TMNT would be interesting!

Two hot heads with sharp weapons going at it?

That would be awesome!

I would love to see that, too. But Raph would be in a disadvantage with Logan having self-healing powers... unless Logan has a handicap... Hehehe...

The Turtles vs. Hellboy

I just imagined a fight between Don and Abe. Awesome!

Hannurdock · 08-24-2014, 11:04 AM

Leo vs Aragorn, Raph vs Gimli, Donny vs Legolas and Mikey watches with a tub of popcorn.

*turtlefanforever* · 08-24-2014, 11:15 AM

More of a Villains match up But would love to see Kronos from the original series season 9 vs any of the following

The riddler, the joker, or clock king.

Also wouldn't mind a turtles team up with Static shock. That old tv series. He teamed up with Batman once so why not.

*Roland* · 08-24-2014, 03:06 PM

Turtles vs Street fighters
Splinter vs Akuma
Leo vs Ryu
Mikey vs E.Honda
Raph vs Blanka
Donnie vs Dhaslim

Turtles vs Tekken
Splinter vs Orge
Leo vs Kazuya
Raph vs King
Mikey vs Paul
Donnie vs Jack6

Turtles vs Virtua Fighters

This would be fights I like to see.

Have nick buy up all those poor TMNT cash-in properties that came out in the 90s and let the IDW turtles completely ruin them in the comics.

I'd watch these too, although I can answer every one of them. Think I wanna see it just because of Tournament Fighters being so close to Street Fighter.

I don't really want to see team ups, but I would love some versus, okay, maybe just one. Batman.

But I honestly don't see the turtles taking the fight.

What about the Hobbits? Considering the connections and all.

Leo vs Merry
Raph vs Sam (come on, I had to do it)
Donny vs Frodo
Mikey vs Pippin

But, I just wondered, what would one of the Turtles do if they were in the situation that these guys are in when this cute little girl stops by and pays them a visit.

That would be cool! I always felt Del Toro should've directed a TMNT film. If there's ever someone who could take puppetry, special effects and a GOOD story...he would've done the Ninja Turtles justice.

Wouldn't be a problem with 2014 movie Raph

I'd love the see the turtles against the A-Team. That would be so cool.

Always loved this match up by our own Dane E5R

TMNT vs The Destroyer, Decade

Truly it would be the greatest match ever

and at the end it would end with Decade turning them into Turtle Saint
