Sounds cool. If the Shredder is back, how long has it been since he last appeared in the comics? Years!?

If you don't count the shark-monster from "Worms of Madness", then he hasn't appeared since, what, '89?

But that's if you want to count clones.

Otherwise, the REAL Shredder's only appearance in the Mirage comics was in Vol. 1 #1.

I don't think this Shredder has anything to do with the continuity of the Shredder from TMNT '84. I think it's one of those parallel demension things. Is it next monday yet so I can pick these bad boys up?

Has it ever been commented on that Jim Lawson's artwork has come a million miles since the old days?
He has always been my favorite Turtle artist and these days he just has such a detailed hand while keeping that quirky anatomy.

Cause I think just about every other tmnt comic fan around would strongly dissagree with you.

haha. Really? Weirdsville ... I have a really nostalgic attachment to Jim Lawson's stuff. It's very "80's indie". I'm going to have to snoop around here more ...

... see what you folks have been saying ... and report back to Dark Lord Jim ...

*DrSpengler* · 10-20-2006, 09:31 PM

Lawson is a good artist. I mean, I have copies of Return to New York, City at War and Tales of the TMNT vol. 1 as PROOF that the man knows how to draw.

But lately he's stylised his art to such an intense degree that it looks flat, lifeless and...well, *lazy*. It's Hanna Barbara-quality, these days. A lot of it has to do with the inking which is less-than-flattering.

Lawson CAN draw really well...he just doesn't anymore.

*discordiatookie* · 10-21-2006, 03:06 PM

i think his work in Tales is normally better than his work in vol 4, mostly because of the shading. vol 4 kinda has a 'lazy ass' style of shading if feel, but i like it! must say i prefer his turtles and non-humans though, compared to his humans - but hey! its a comic book, so i dont need it to be uber-realistic!

OldSchooler · 10-22-2006, 01:39 AM

Early Vol.4's inking over toning was a better look in my mind. There was a darker, more artistic quality to it, but still TMNT is better than no TMNT, and I rather enjoy the stories so I'll be first in line when the hiatus ends...

Now this I will totally agree with. As much of a Lawson fan as I am I am not much of a fan of his human characters. There really isn't alot going on in the faces.

*Buslady* · 01-04-2007, 11:41 AM

Lawson WAS good. Now like you guys said, his art is lazy and there's no REAL emotion in anything.

Dooney...now he's a cool artist.

Just a piece I did for Halloween. It's on my deviant site.

Cool you're from Ontario! I have a very close friend who lives there. I've also been to Toronto. Beautiful city.
