DreamWave TMNT Issue 5

*JameO* · 10-22-2003, 08:01 AM

Since no one started this I may as well since it is supposed to be released today! Sticky this please if you can. So just discuss about the new story by dreamwave and how good it may or may not be. Just an all out discussion of DW Issue 5. I will post what I thought about it later today when I actually get the comic.

Done.

Yeah I guess I can't get the thought of the game.

<WHEN I GET THE COMIC> There we go all fixed.

**HorseTechie** · 10-22-2003, 12:58 PM

Well, I have heard that they are released both the comic and the game on the same day.

*cqb101* · 10-22-2003, 02:15 PM

Great issue! I didn't care too muc for the story, but as always the art was amazing! The best part (IMO) was the T4 Turtlenator ad. I can't wait to see the evil turtle bot in the comic! I have a feeling it's going to be next issue because the ad shows Leo, and shows the mousers eating Leo's katanas, and in the letters section it said that issue # 6 is going to be centered around Leo. End rant.....

errr... i thought it couldve been better. no action :/

*JameO* · 10-22-2003, 03:08 PM

I thought the story was good had to start off with Raph wanting to be out of the shadows. And yes the art was amazing. Very nice LeSean. And yeah T4 that was great! And about the game being released on same day. My part of Canada didn't get it yet.....we get it on Thursday which is tommorow.

King Kahn · 10-22-2003, 05:53 PM

i thought the lesson behind the story was really good but pretty sad as well. i just have to say great job on the comic. it looks great.

Aztec General · 10-22-2003, 06:03 PM

I didn't like the story much. Pretty weak. I did like Lesean's art as usual though.

I too am very psyched for the "T4"! What an awesome add that was.

MTN889 · 10-22-2003, 06:12 PM

Yes, too bad...
Although i had another TMNT to keep me busy:

Story wasn't very interesting and there was no action to speak of. Art was amazing as usual. I hope it starts to pick up.

Stefano · 10-22-2003, 08:24 PM

i always like to re read comics but with dreamwave its borng. Im gonna stop if there story keeps being this crappy

*Jephael* · 10-23-2003, 06:57 AM

The story may be weak, but atleast the artwork is good! I also liked that T4 ad. BTW, was it just me or did Splinter seem like a figment of Raph's imagination?

*Cascadia* · 10-23-2003, 07:24 AM

the story started out good then it got weak....

**HorseTechie** · 10-23-2003, 06:15 PM

I finally get this, and I read it. Great art indeed!

And... I don't see why everyone is saying the story sucks. I thought
it was a funny portrayal of the "worse case scenario" as to why the
Turtles shouldn't be showing themselves to everyone on the streets.

I thought the initial conversation between the mother and the shrink
was rather funny. Or disturbing. Depending on the frame of mind you
have while reading those panels. ;]

"Long hard metal prongs? Interesting..."

...nice Terminator centerfold though!

*raphael_is_cool* · 10-24-2003, 09:03 AM

This is the 1st one I found in the UK so I bought it straight away seeing that it was all about Raph. I quite liked the story, nice example of what happens. I found it funny how Raph has an idea of what Splinter would be saying (his rationality you could say) but he still can't help himself and has to get involved. My only gripe was how the story quickly rushed through things, first there's the cat then Raph thinks the mum beats her child then she gets taken away then Raph meets the psychiatrist and then he's trying to shoot people and then Raph beats him up and all is forgotten

But overall I liked it, the artwork is fantastic and I will definitely be getting the next one

*Taloniss* · 10-24-2003, 12:06 PM

I thought the story was good, as a pseudo "what if" type of situation. Action doesn't make a comic. Great art as always as well.

Blaze DTGG · 10-24-2003, 02:35 PM

actually I really liked the story. I thought that it did seem a bit rushed at first but overall I really enjoyed it. I would have liked for them to go a little more indepth to this sort of thing. I mean it can't be easy having to live in the shadows your whole life.

**HorseTechie** · 10-24-2003, 06:10 PM

Yeah, the thing with the shrink was rushed, and the way he was shooting at people? from the roof was really odd, but other than that, I thought it was good. The story didn't have any loose ends or silly reasonings that go against TMNT lore.
