Yeah, it is quite a bit overboard. If I were to limit it to a universal top 10, I would probably go with the Archie list alone. It had the basic characters from the old toon but developed them wonderfully as well as introducing some original and obscure characters.

Ah, then change my top 4 to include Rat King (1), Baxter Stockman (new cartoon and comic, 2), Mondo Gecko (3), and Cudley the Cowlick (4). There... that's fixed.

10 not including the main characters? Like a lot of others I'm going to need to pull from Archie (I hope someone snags the rights to reprint those into trades or something, those books got me into comics).
1)Mondo Gecko: I always thought he was cool looking as a kid. 2)Leatherhead: I thought it was odd that he was with the good guys in the comics. As a comic fan my first experience with villains becoming heroes and sometimes vice versa! 3)Slash: See above. As a fan of the turtles it was cool to see a new mutant turtle around. 4)Rat King: I'm a big fan of the Morlocks in X-Men, so bring on the sewer freaks! 5)Utroms: I don't know much about them (I would if/when Mirage reprints Volume 1!!!), but they look cool and as someone who was introduced through the old toon it is interesting to see the inspiration for Krang. 6)Mutant Frogs: These guys were pretty cool. As a kid I thought frogs were really neat. 7)Baxter Stockman: As a movie fan I now appreciate the homage to the Fly that he later became in the cartoon. 9)Krang: One of my favorite villains from when I was a kid. I remember he had a hole on the bottom of the figure so you could use him as a finger pupper. 10)Cudley the Cowlick: George Lucas said he wanted giant lizards in Star Wars for the sake of eccentricity, and as far as comics go in the eccentricity department it doesn't get much better than a giant flying cow head. So I didn't need to pull as much from Archie as I thought. I haven't followed the Turtles as hardcore as I did when I was a kid so it's tough to think of secondary characters. |

Well, I never had the chance to post a list back in '06, so here it goes. My favorite ten side characters in no particular order.
Complete Carnage - Awesome super power, and a totally evil foe. I just like the challenge he presents the Turtles, and wish he'd be used more often. Cha Ocho - Even if "Scars" wasn't one of the best Turtles stories around, his relationship with Leonardo would still be interesting. He's a villain without really being a villain. Elite Guard (Mirage) - These guys are bad-ass. 'Nuff said. Karai (Mirage) - A completely different character from the cartoon version, the Karai of the comics is strong-willed and powerful. Her relationship to the Turtles is always intruiging. Baxter (1987 toon) - Most twisted idea the '87 series ever had. And it was great. Bishop - Another great super villain type. A virtually immortal super soldier who actually plays on the fact that the Turtles are mutants hiding from society. Professor Obligado - He's an Utrom who drops acid and goes on scientific missions in space. He's died and been resurrected. Obligado is the man. Zukko - For some reason the idea of a Triceraton gangster really stuck with me. Maybe it's just the novelty. Null - Awesome like a classic Bond villain. Armaggon - Totally vicious, awesome design, etc. Armaggon just makes for a great villain. And I meant to get Viral and Vernon on there somewhere. |

1. Mondo Gecko - He's not just my favorite comic book character, but my favorite action figure as well!
2. Mona Lisa - It really ticks me off she only had one episode in the entire cartoon's run. She could've been a very interesting recurring character at some point, and obviously a good love interest for Raphael! 3. Rocksteady - My favorite of the gruesome twosome! He always seemed to be the most sensetive badguy for some reason. 4. Leatherhead - I kinda like him more in the 4Kids series than the classic toon. 5. Keno - He kicked butt, litterally! 6. Zach, the 5th Turtle - I always saw a lot of myself in that kid. I wanted to be a Ninja Turtle as much as he did. 7. Cudley the Cowlick - I grew up near my cousins' dairy farm so I love cows! 8. Baxter Stockman - I was watching the Coming Out of Their Shells stage show video last weekend and his scenes were hilarious! 9. Candy Fine - Mondo's main squeeze! I would've liked to learn how the two of them met. 10. Tokka - It always makes me laugh the way he calls Shredder "Mama!" |

my list, in no particular order, with my favorite universe representations in parentheses:
1 - Casey Jones (Mirage) - how could this hockey stick swinging badass NOT be on a list, I'm surprised he's not on the 'main character no-pick list' 2 - Leatherhead (Mirage) - Dan Berger's Leatherhead is one of the most awesome looking characters in comics 3 - Usagi Yojimbo (Mirage) - Usagi is one of my favorite comic series (after TMNT of course) 4 - Zog (Mirage) - big, badass, triceraton, his plot thread in RtNY was awesome, and might be why I rank that storyarc as one of my favorites 5 - Traximus (NT) - can you tell I'm a sucker for brutish triceratons? 6 - Metal Head (NT) - a pint sized powerhouse that uses his metallic hair to fight, need I say more? 7 - Slash (Toy) - definitely my favorite action figure, so gnarly! 8 - Mondo Gecko (Toy) - a close 2nd to Slash, and both their Archie incarnations are pretty awesome as well. 9 - Dreadmon (Archie) - something about a Jamaican werewolf strikes my fancy... 10 - Blodgett (OT) - ok so I think he was in only one ep of the Old Toon, but this nerdy neer-do-well who found a magical Shredder-helmet made quite the hilarious impression on me, something about the way he mourned all of his troubles to his pet cat Mortimer, or maybe the way Vernon yelled "Blodgett!" when he crashed the Channel 6 news van, or just even the name Blodgett itself!!! ahh Blodgett... ANYWAY, that's my list. It'd be interesting to make a tally of everyone's favorite (secondary) characters so far, or to see which tmnt universe is hauling in the most votes. |

I must agree on that, he's one unoriginal character with no personality.
