Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Magazine

[Original TMNT Cartoon Fan]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teenage...ries)#Magazine says there was a TMNT comic named "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Magazine". I would like to see some pictures or hear something about the stories.

There was a TMNT Magazine some years ago (early 90s) in the US. As well as a recent one in the UK. Both had comic stories in them.

I think Rose has copies of all of them. At least she's posted pics of the covers of most of them.

Actually there is a pretty cool blog on the magazine run in that x-entertainment site. http://www.x-entertainment.com/articles/0967/

I would love to get my hands on one!

If you mean the UK Hero Turtles comics, they are discussed here: http://forums.thetechnodrome.com/showthread.php?t=24769.

No, not those. The UK recently had a Magazine, based off Fast Forward. With a TMNT (New Movie) Prequal comic reprint, and a new Fast Forward comic.

Those recent UK-comics have been published here in Sweden too

Though I never bought them

I got my letter published in an issue. I can't recall which one, but I think it might have been October of... 1992, I want to say... Don't quote me on that.

Though don't know how far along it is for you, basically the UK's recent TMNT Magazine has come to an end (think someone had mentioned of it in a post about the Magazine, quite some time ago).

I think there were cover images in a post (for maybe a couple issues), but otherwise not sure.

Yes, here in Sweden

Umm.. I think they began publishing last year, but it could have been this year..

And I have no idea if they're still published, but since the Swedish comic market basically copies the UK comic market, I don't think they will continue for long anyway... If they're still published, that is...

Uhhh... I don't know but my guess would be Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Like I said, I haven't bought an issue and I haven't even spent much time looking at one.

Where are those pictures?

[oldmanwinters]

I just picked up seven copies of TMNT Magzine (USA by Welsh Publishing Group) at my local comic store today for free! They were just setting in the floor next to the check out counter, so I inquired and the guy just let me have them! They are all pretty worn-out looking, but I'm really happy to be able to score these issues. Hopefully I'll have time to post some scans of the story art later (if anyone still wants to see that, of course).

Lawson did all of the art in those stories, and Dooney did all the posters. His Shredder one flanked in flames is my fave. Also the Turtles meeting Garfield in that issue was pretty awesome!

I still have all of my issues in my room. I remember trying to color on Guerilla Gorilla with a light red marker -_-.

I also wanted to color in my mini comic from when I joined the Turtle Force Fan Club. x_x

I have the first issue of the recent UK magazine, and it came with a small skateboard, wich I thought was pretty cool. I haven't got it on hand right now, but I remember it being half Fast Forward comics, and half articles about the 2007 movie, more or less.

It is the typical kids magazine.

[discordiatookie]

Since someone asked, here's pics of the UK magazines.

First up is the one that coincided with the 2K3 toon. Complete suckage - the comic strips within are just stills of the toon. The rest is fact pages, puzzles, posters, fan art, competitions, etc. All aimed at kids, which is fair enough. I stopped collecting these at issue 7, as it was fairly crap.



Then there's the mag that came out to go with the TMNT movie. Actually pretty good, mosta the same as the last series of magazines, (puzzles, fact pages, ect) but with two very decent comic strips - a Fast Forward one (exclusive to this magazine, I believe) and colour versions of various mirage comics - mainly the TMNT movie prequels and a Leatherhead/young TMNT Tales adventure (can't remember which issue. Cancelled at issue 13, which is ashame.


And what I can find in the free gifts:
