Your top moments of the TMNT behaving like Teenagers.

It's a strange thing. I like the turtles to be written as teenagers when they are teenagers. I also like to see them grow up and mature.

But some of those Mirage short stories where the turtles are sneaking into movies, playing tag, calling each other chuckleheads, and goofing around are a blast and the behavior displayed would fall under the "average teenager" umbrella. It's definitely not just something used to appeal to children. Eastman and Laird had that side of them displayed from the beginning.

I mean, that's part of the appeal. I love that the turtles are loveable, chill dudes that could flip on a dime and dice you up into little bits with a grin.

On the other hand, City at War is my favorite TMNT story and wastes absolutely no time with that. The turtles behave appropriately serious, given the circumstances.
