That's not necessarily true. What if the Turtles had some bars of Kryptonite?

Anyway, why exactly would heroes fight each other? Wouldn't the good guys team up to fight the bad guys and the supervillians?
So? They'd get past supes and get their asses handed to them by either GL or Batman(if he happens to be in this battle)

the TMNT are basically just like any other well trained human ninja. Their only unique aspects are I guess, lasting longer underwater, living over 100 years, ducking their heads in their shells, and turning around so their shell can take the brunt of some deadly attack. All the other stuff like living in shadow, martial arts and athletic ability, weapon mastery and such is what being a ninja is all about anyways, human or not. Hell, Batman does most of the stealthy ninja stuff the TMNT do and he's human.

Yes, but do they really qualify as a superhero team?

its kinda hard to put the turtles up to other mutants that have powers that would roast them realize cyclops? turtles = cooked even if they went in there shells it his beam would cook them like a baked potatoe and not to mention xavier? omg burst your head and yes good ol wolvie would own them all hcs in the butt. he cant die realize he is like 400 years old... and its not like leo could chop off his head he does have a neck bone so yea... they would get owned. but it would be cool to see leo stab cyclops in the eye. bad ass. as for ff i think nt would win mr fantastic? cut him like a rubber band invisable women? omg owned she cant fight thing would be the problem well then again if turtles were smart (which the are) they would just own thing and human torch at once? both get owned by water thing would drown and thats how human torch died against onslaught so yea boom chicka tmnt = winners!

It's kinda funny, my wife and I had this same conversation tonight. I gotta agree with Krow, Don would find a way.

That's normally what happens, but there's always some sort of mis-understanding in the beginning where the two sets of goodguys get on one another's case and they wind up in a heated battle.
They've had Spider-Man fight Hulk and the X-Men plenty of times.

The TMNT would be an asset to almost any super hero team, but i think they'd be owned by most. The boys have esentially the same abilities, aside from donny's brain, which can get them outta scraps but Reed Richards is a freakin uber-genius, he'd almost be donny's idol, he'd out think donny in a heart beat. The TMNT could take sue and johnny, but ben would be a tough one. The x-men and avengers would take them out also, thought the boys would put up a fight, and a good one. Prof. X would probably break up the fight....like he did in the spidey animated series with the x-men. Now the JLA...who knows.....i'm not a big DC fan but with Sups and Diana.....the boys don't stand a chance....the tmnt would be a match for bats...and maybe flash....being ninja and all....but J'hon and well....John could whoop up on um.....but as it's been said the TMNT should team with the heros not fight....cant we all just get along???
What about TMNT vs. The Sinister 6.....or the Brotherhood.....or the league of Doom???

Aside that the TMNT are ninja, you all have to remember that they are mutant turtles too. This gives them quite an advantage. Based on the role-playing game "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and other strangeness", most of the TMNT stats are well above normal compared to average humans. TMNT total hits (S.D.C. + Hit Ponts) are around between 151 to 185! An average human's hits are around 20 to 30. Even really tough humans average around 40 to 80. Also, the TMNT have a natural body armour rating of 12 (tough skin, flesh & bones and shell). This means that 60% of most attaks will bounce off or deflect off of them! Normal humans don't have armour rating. On top of that, they have incredible breath control. They can hold their breaths for ten minutes!

Now, I'm not saying that the TMNT can beat any super hero, but they can at least last a really, really long time!

Exactly. That's why I said that teams like the X-Men and the Avengers would have a hard time beating them.

Great analysis,
Ryo. Although I hardly understood a word of it.

The X-men aren't gonna have a hard time beating them when Logan can rip their heads off in one fell swoop, or Captain America can throw his shield and chop their heads off. That increased durability and everything is only going to aid them in hand to hand combat without weapons.

Alright, cqb101, let's not argue again. We had our spat. Besides, how can Wolvie or Cap swipe their heads off if they can retract their heads into their shells?

Hmmm. TMNT versus the Wonder Twins? Oh, yeah...TMNT hands down. I also think the turtles could beat the Defenders...everyone else can.

We're not argueing, we're debating. It's all in good nature. Plus, I'm sure Wolvie would get them before they even realized what was happeneing and could think to pull their heads down. Sure, they're ninjas and all, but still.

I agree. That's not posible with their humanoid form. What we saw in the movie was strictly humor. It goes the same with the old series aswell.
You never see them do that in the Mirage comics, and we won't be seeing them do that in the new series.

Getting back on topic... I agree that Wolverine can defeat the TMNT, but not easily. In any case, I believe that the TMNT can take out most of the X-men (not all of them, but most of them).
