Jim Lee TMNT mini-comics

*oldmanwinters* · 04-28-2009, 06:27 PM

Does anyone know the basic plot of the Image/Playmates TMNT mini-comics that were released with the Jim Lee TMNT and Savage Dragon figures? I read somewhere that a Jim Lee version of Leonardo appeared in these issues. I believe the same story was reprinted in each of the issues, even though they have different covers.

Any one know what characters were featured in the comic?

Here is a picture from an ebay listing of the set.

Jim Lee TMNT Figures:
Don

Raph

Mike

I have the third one on the top.

Basically, Savage Dragon and She Dragon are patroling the city when they bump into the (hideus) Jim Lee designed TMNT. They fight. Leo uses his katana to chop off all of She Dragon's flowing blonde hair, leaving her with the mohawk look. She gets upset. Then they all realize they're after Overlord and decide to team-up.

The End.

Dunno if its the same story in the ones with different covers, since I only have the one.

Well, I have second on the bottom, and the plot's the same, so I'm guessing they're all the same.

*CyberCubed* · 04-29-2009, 09:54 AM

I have the fourth one, and the story is the same as above.

Be glad the Turtles didn't look like this in the regular Image series.

No Leo was ever produced? (Question for the toys forum but since its related...)

as far as I know there is no Jim Lee Leo figure
EDIT: snooping around the web:
apparently someone else made a Leo Jim Lee figure later on or something

That either has to be a prototype or a custom.

There was a pic of Leo in a magazine back before they came out but that's it. Probably what you saw.

Nah, those photos are definitely different. They're on-card.

So much new stuff has popped up over the last year, it's actully pretty cool.

*CyberCubed* · 04-30-2009, 02:38 PM

Damn, that figure looks pretty cool. I wish they released it now.

some guy named Alex CF, created the Leo to finish the toy line

This thread deserves to be bumped back up. I'm always having to search google to find it.

The one with the Bisley cover? We need a 600dpi scan of that shiz, FAST!

Seems silly not to have VaughnMichael's scan of this linked to the thread: http://forums.thetechnodrome.com/showthread.php?t=27552

Spoiler:

wilddiverse · 09-29-2011, 11:58 PM

And here's what I've managed to beg, borrow, and steal to make a cover gallery:

So a scan of the cover that came with the Raph figure and a better quality scan of the Mikey cover are what's needed yet if anyone can provide.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 09-30-2011, 12:09 AM

Those are all cool. I want them
