Sadly, it doesn't work for me.

I forgot to thank you for the scans, Mr. Winters. I really like the illustrations, and it's cool to be able to read a Turtles Story I've never read before. Thanks!

Yes, thank you. I'm now reading some new TMNT stuff (except the cartoon episode adaptions and "Undercover Heroes" who I already have as a kid) based on the 1987 show. It feels like time has reserved by 20 years again. Thank you.

I love how Leo's katanas turn into scimitars.

Thanks a bunch!!

while the stories sound interesting, I never bought any TMNT stuff that comes from other countries. I know it's a big seller amongst other fans but I don't see the draw. To me, it just all seems like cheap knockoffs or bootlegs.

Only if it's not officially licensed.

Shredder's Invisible Maze rocked!

Translation: "If it aint BORN IN THE USA, it's not worth beans"

That's a very moronic view of things.

In addition to Splinter No More, I also have Follow My Leader, which is basically an adaption of the episode "Take Me to Your Leader". One thing that the book goofs about is it states that Shredder is from Dimension X and not Japan. The thing about some of these original stories is that they easily could have made an additional 10 or so episodes off of these along with Random House's and Dave Morris' stories for the OT, and somebody can wonder if these stories were part of rejected scripts (I would have loved to have seen a Fred Wolf take of "A Fishy Adventure" and "The Magic Crystal" for instance). And with regards to censorship, I wonder if Michelangelo knows how to use a Bo!

It's probably a reference to that the Technodrome is located in Dimension X at that point. But I agree, goof.

some of these look like they may have made great episode if they had been animated. Also fron just these little peeks at the content, I think I like the way my fav turtle Michaelangelo was potrayed.

I just tried to use this to down load the pages and my computer blocked it as a virus threat.

Maybe the Turtles were challenging their inner Mirage? Heh. What sounds less lame -- getting killed by your own hand grenade or dying in a vat in a boiling anchovies?

Loved your bit, oldmanwinters. Reminds me of a similar scene with MST3K and the movie characters were busy burying their Load character. "I'm not dead..." "Wait..."

Anyone else curious or amused in seeing Rocksteady's helmet? Weird how the 87 series did away with that almost immediately, yet it keeps popping up in other media (the Konami games, Archie, these books). I don't mind, as the helmet fit his design well, so any appearance with it is fine with me.

As for the virus issue, yeah, I got a Trojan, which my McAfee virus software took care of it. And, to be safe, I scanned the downloaded file, and it's fine or secure or a non-virus. I don't blame the file, but Mediafire is kinda funky like that. (Although, it is the first time I got a virus attack/threat, or the first in recent memory.)

Try Rapidshare, Oron or Deposit Files as you rarely get any of that with them. Just saying.

Hmm... that's strange. I assure you I didn't sneak anything malicious into that file, but it could be either that your system doesn't like Mediafire or there might have been something shady in the original files that I compiled from the Russian packs.

Try the original sources and see if you have better luck:

Well, that's disappointing to see that MediaFire has more security issues than I would have expected. I haven't had problems with it before, but it is a little pop-up heavy. Maybe I should have offered a Dropbox link instead.

I have since removed the file from my MF account.

Wish I had known that before I DL-ed, but we had to learn, right? Hah.

Anyway, I've become obsessed about anti-virus software and being up-to-date as possible. (I suffered a major virus attack, recently, and lost all my files, last month. Stupid anti-virus virus programs.) And regardless, I don't blame you, as A) you're trustworthy and B) stuff or, specifically, virus hijacking happens. It is yet another reason to hate pop-ups, or even more so.

In which case, I should note that Oron and Rapidshare doesn't do pop-ups when they are ready to be DL-ed, while Deposit Files does. However, I never had a problem with DF, but this teaches me that no one may be safe. Rather sad, as I like Mediafire, as well. Darn you, hackers.

Oh, just to be completely sure, I also unzipped and scanned the files within (I scanned the ZIP file in my previous post), and they're just fine. Can't wait to read them. Despite all this, I'm glad you uploaded and shared it with the rest of us.

Edit: I just uploaded them onto Oron, as a temporary placeholder. Whenever you opt for your own DL site, feel free to discard my link (or have it as a back-up, whichever). Apologies if I'm overstepping any bounds.
