Tales of the TMNT 13

*Raph's Girl* · 07-27-2005, 04:36 PM

The official site has the preview up for Tales 13. And for all you Leo fans it should be rather exciting!

Plot:
Leonardo meets incarnations of his past and future in effort to return the favor he owes to Pai-Doth Noor by delivering a "gift".

My thoughts:
Chibi Leo, Modern Leo, Old Leo, and really old Leo fight Egyptians and uh what appears to be cat people. All thanks to the mystical monkey dude, Pai-Doth Noor. Leo doesn't age well...

Remender is a good artist, but not on the turtles. I can't stand the scrawny look to them.

well now we know where the cat person from splinters funeral came from....

Oh great...not another "And now we know the rest of the story..." issues....

Eventually we'll meet everybody we didn't recognize at Splinter's funeral. Has Radical been in any other issues besides the funeral one??

Radical and Complete Carnage were in something like Tales of the TMNT #5... Kevin Eastman describes them in his Artobiography as the TMNT's take on superheroes.

Now there's like a friggin million superheroes in TMNT.

Gokhan · 08-01-2005, 02:42 PM

no one gonna answer?

Well, Tales #13 came out yesterday.

SPOILERS AHOY!!!

This was certainly the best issue of Tales in a very long while. I really think they should stick with the 2-issue format, as I really appreciated the cliffhanger and the extra amount of time to get into the story and meet all the characters (even if they were all the same character).

Rick Remender's art, I like. His pages aren't nearly as stylised as the cover, and if you've read Worms of Madness, you'll know what to expect. His use of lighting is fantastic, particularly in the scenes where 8 year-old Leo is playing with his brand new katana. I dunno, but I just liked the light through the doorway as it reminded me how my house used to look late at night when I was a kid.

Also some good philosphy and quotes in this issue.

"I know it must be weird seeing what you'll become, but try to imagine the opposite...imagine the loss one feels at seeing what one was. And seeing what one shall never be...again."

"You aren't just the are you are. You are all the ages you have ever been."

"I know how you think."
"No, you don't! *You* know how *you* used to think, not how *I* think!"

Overall, it was a good issue and will be even better once the arc's over with.

Gokhan · 08-05-2005, 09:37 AM

so are u gonna tell me what leos were there name the ones on the cover

*DrSpengler* · 08-05-2005, 09:51 AM

~~BartAllen~~ · 08-06-2005, 10:25 AM

Oh the turtles are also transported back into the past, in egypt at the time moses was sent up the river in his baby basket.

*Dane E5R* · 08-06-2005, 06:28 PM

Sorry, I missed that. But it's not as though you can't order it from one of the many thousands of online comic shops. Actually, I think you can order them from Ninjaturtles.com.

twopinacoladas · 08-07-2005, 11:27 AM

*spoilers*

yeah 8 year old Leo had to slice 2 giant 'fishes' that were going to eat him while crossing the mote and learned a lesson in self reliance...

*zkarlette* · 08-08-2005, 12:05 PM

I still have to find this issue

It better be good....

Space Lieutenant Josh · 08-10-2005, 03:18 PM

Hey! I just read it. I liked it. Remender's art is good, and I loved the frontispiece. That was terrific.

The inter-Leo interactions reminded me of future and present Raph talking in the Archie series back in the day.
