Are there good fanfictions of TMNT?

Coprophagous Beauty · 08-15-2020, 01:04 PM

Not sure if you could use the words "good" and "fanfictions" in one sentence.

*CyberCubed* · 08-15-2020, 01:35 PM

You can probably find some old stuff written in the early 2000's. But overall, probably not much.

I know for a fact there are, but I couldn't remember names or point you in any specific direction. Sorry.

People presume an awful lot. There's good and bad in everything. As if hobbies are bad. Yeesh! I promise you, I've seen stuff written by mere fans that outshines half of what's been presented by the "professionals" who handle these characters.

There's more Bad than Good out there for sure by nature of sheer volume, but that's true of absolutely everything. To assume everything is trash by default is incredibly presumptuous, though.

I have a popular following on Fanfiction dot net for my TMNT fics and I can recommend other authors that have awesome stories.

*CyberCubed* · 08-15-2020, 02:26 PM

My advice is to avoid most if not all "shipping" fanfics. Having a little romance in a story is fine of course, but if the primary genre is shipping I would not bother. Especially in a franchise like TMNT...because you kinda know what characters would be paired up in it and you don't want to go there.

~~Leo656~~ · 08-15-2020, 02:39 PM

I won a few popular vote "awards" on this very forum back in the day, back when they did that kinda thing every year, and tied for something, I think... Might've been "Best Action Story", "Best Cross-Over", and "Best New Author", I *think*.

I am gonna hazard a guess that says Cubed was not one of the ones who voted for me.

I actually found that one again after I lost it. Hadn't seen it in 15 years or so. Whole thing needs a Page One rewrite A to Z before I'd ever show it to anyone now, though.

There was a miniseries/continuation of the OT going on that I really loved, but unfortunately never got finished. The few sites I do remember are long gone.

If you are talking about Zarius continuation series, they're still around:

No, I can't remember who these were by. They explained what Shredder and Krang were up to since being banished to Dimension X and their efforts to repair the Technodrome and return to Earth. They used the portal to go back in time to retrieve a "chrono ray" to restore the current Technodome to pristine working order and return to Earth. The series also saw the return and demutation of Baxter as well as the return and final demise of Dregg.

I think there are good fanfiction but "good" doesn't mean serviceable for the masses. I've read a lot of fanfiction I think is excellent (and no none of it is tcest) but I don't recommend them to tmnt fans because the writer takes liberties I know some people may not like.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 09-03-2020, 04:38 PM

I could name off quite a few, actually. Bubblyshell22, SleepingSeeker, Hummerhouse, Ravenshell, Rachel Erica, TheIncredibleDancingBetty, SewerSurfin, and myself all have some really good fics over on Fanfiction.net. And those are just off the top of my head. (Not bragging on mine, but FF's TMNT fan community has a yearly award thing, and I have placed in it a few times.) Fair warning, a few of these authors DO write T-cest fics, but not exclusively, and a fair number of their non-cest ones are among the BEST TMNT fics out there! SleepingSeeker and TIDB have two of the most amazing TMNT stories I've ever read. Hummerhouse has a series of one-shots of encounters between the TMNT and ordinary people that are amazing. And there are others out there, too, you just have to hunt a little.

Actually no. It was a miniseries that started after Divide and Conquer showing Shredder and Krang trying to repair the ruined Technodrome with Dimension X resources, then using the portal as a time machine to retrieve a Chrono Ray which restores it to working order in the present. Then they return to Earth once again and have the same force field they had in "The Big Blowout". The Turtles have to go to Dimensio X to retrieve a diamond that can pierce the shield. And it gets crazier from there.

I've googled for "Chrono Ray" + TMNT, but I can't find anything.

No, they've been gone for years. I've tried too, even a dialogue search.

This genuinely cracked me up.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 09-06-2020, 11:24 PM

Yeah, clearly they haven't read many, or are looking in the wrong places.

Lord Nightwalker · 09-07-2020, 09:28 PM

There certainly were some gems in the mix. And some of them used to post Some what regularly here. Some good stuff.
