Ahhh.. then why not just supply the URL to Laird image from his site, rather than image linking it in? *shrug* Just a way so peeps would know where it's coming from.

geez, have a lil' faith in dah man. I mean he DID co-create the characters, so he knows whats best i think.

Whoo.. whaaa..?

*heretic888* · 11-25-2002, 12:28 PM

poo.

**Karpo_007** · 11-25-2002, 01:17 PM

I think he is talking about Peter Laird. And I agree, I can't believe he would change the TMNT so drasticly.

*heretic888* · 11-25-2002, 01:23 PM

damn skippy.

**Kali** · 11-25-2002, 01:33 PM

I agree, Laird wouldn't change his concept of TMNT. But remember, he didn't create it alone. There are aspects of TMNT that left with Kevin Eastman, that we probably won't see again in the comics. I'm still seein some of Laird's behavior concerning his "takeover" all the TMNT as a bit childish, but that's my opinion.

*heretic888* · 11-25-2002, 01:36 PM

if the tmnt were gonna go 'superpowered' i'd like to see something like the proposal for the fourth tmnt movie.... or some kinda ninja-related powers or esp.... and not goofy costumed 'justice shall prevail!!' nonsense.

**Karpo_007** · 11-25-2002, 01:38 PM

Wel he didn't actually take over the TMNT rights, They lived far from each other, Eastman was giving his time to Heavy Metal, Of course there was some diffrences, Next mutation probably was the biggest one. Of course I have also heard that Laird didn't like Body count. So maybe the TMNT wont be overly Violent in the future.

*heretic888* · 11-25-2002, 01:52 PM

well, the tmnt have NEVER been psycho-violent like they were in Body Count. they are violent and occasionally curse, but it was kinda extreme in body Count. Laird will prolly keep it like it was in the original comics.

**Karpo_007** · 11-25-2002, 01:55 PM

Yeah. I have alwasy thinked that he wrote most of the original stories.

**Kali** · 11-25-2002, 01:57 PM

I know Laird didn't takeover the rights to TMNT forcefully. But I can't help but get this image of him sitting in Mirage Studios (or whatever it's called,) laughing manically, saying, "Now I can do things MY way! And no one can stop me! Bwahahahaha!"

*ahem* Yeah.

*heretic888* · 11-25-2002, 01:58 PM

oh no!! its diabolical evil Pete!!!!!!!!

yeah, i think Laird wrote a lotta the general plotlines... but Eastman fleshed out the characters a lot... and it shows.

**Karpo_007** · 11-25-2002, 02:02 PM

In some comic I read about the proces of making a TMNT comic. First Pete wrote the story, Then Kevin did thumbnails, then they both pencilled and inked half of it.

And personally, If Laird's way is like the original comics and less like Bodycount im ok with it. This will change if this Super hero thing will be permanent.

*heretic888* · 11-25-2002, 02:04 PM

yeah, but i think Eastman was resposible for fleshing out a lotta the characters. read stories where kevin helps another writer out and this shows. the tmnt in the new comic just seem very..... bland. i hope pete improves this. i mean, the overall plot is really, really good... but the characters themselves are sorta being bland.

**Karpo_007** · 11-25-2002, 02:06 PM

Of course it wont ever be as good as the first volume, but it is ok. It's still TMNT and has the same feeling. But still it's little diffrent.

*heretic888* · 11-25-2002, 02:10 PM

making the tmnt 'public' is interesting.... i wonder where this is gonna go and what kinda character growth will result.

**Karpo_007** · 11-25-2002, 02:15 PM

Yeah. I hope the Volume 4 sells well enough, So it wont get cancelled like the 2:nd volume.

*heretic888* · 11-25-2002, 02:16 PM

oh, i dont think we have to worry about that. the first two issues sold out if i remember correctly.

**Karpo_007** · 11-25-2002, 02:17 PM

I know. I hope the sales continue that way.
