Tales of the TMNT Special
I have been working for quite some time on a TMNT fan comic project and I am now able to show it to you Dromers.
To give you a clue of the context and content, everything started when I acquired 10 pages of an original Italian story published in 1995. These 10 pages form the full story and to my knowledge, it has never been reprinted nor translated. I wanted to share this story so more people would be able to enjoy it. Thus, I translated it in English. I also wanted to add my touch to it by drawing a Frontispiece and an epilogue page. To put the lid on it, it had to look like a real comic book and a cover was commissioned to a French artist. The full story is now available online following this link. And for French speaking people, here are more information about original Italian TMNT and the creation process of Tales of the TMNT Special. - General article - List of original Italian publications - Il Giornalino #16 1995 / Tales of the TMNT Special I hope you enjoy it! |

Awesome! I love stuff like this. Very nice art! It would be cool to see more of these comics translated and released for us English speaking folk but I appreciate even getting this. Thanks for sharing.

You are welcome.
Thanks for your nice words. I really dig this Italian art as well. That's what led me to buy the whole set of pages and run this project. |

Do you own the magazines or just the scans? I will definitely use these to update the index on Tortuepedia. Regarding my work, I'm not against doing another shot if I can find another full story in original art . I'm curious to have some feedback on the story in Tales of the TMNT Special . |

For all the scans uploaded, I own the full issues... although there might be a few missing pages from issue to issue. I'm sending you a PM regarding possible original art.

Mark posted its review of the Italian story on TMNT Entity.
A big thanks goes to him! I'm really glad Assalto al Treno and more widely Italian stories from this period are gaining visibility. |
