A Go at a TMNT Plot FAQ

Bourgeois Buffoon · 03-24-2004, 02:50 PM

Howdy. I'm a regular at Mikey's TMNT forums, where I first put this topic up, but since this comics discussion is fairly active and since I'm always looking for people/facts to help update this with (not to mention if the off-chance it's actually decent I'm egotistical enough to plug it all around in the TMNT fandom), I wanted you guys to see the Plot FAQ I wrote and made over a course of a couple months-I've never seen one besides Andrew Modeen's Chronology at his site (the official inspiration for this). That said, the post from here on is copied from my Mikeys TMNT forum post:

" http://home.graffiti.net/bourgeois_b...ewerslair.html

NOTES:

1. Yes, I know, it's likely what you all know, and is simply a retelling of many summaries. I made this both as a way to expand knowledge of the canon universe, and for new guys to the storyline like *I* was once.

2. I gave credit to all places I got info from, no worries.

3. Suggestions, comments, criticisms-really, if I did something wrong, or stupid, lemme know. On the other hand, I'll appreciate any praise you somehow had.

4. Oh yeah, I'm making my own site, the TMNT Sewer Lair, as you can tell from the title. It's just I wanted to show off the plot FAQ first and get several months' of wasted life some purpose first."

Thanks in advance for all comments.

AND, if it's bad manners of me to post this up at another forum since so many of us go inbetween both site forums, I also apologize in advance.

Very cool! I'm in the process of making a complete mirage and image character guide, but it looks like you're doing one, too. I guess I don't need to do mine anymore.

That's a nice resourcelful guide, especially for people new to the TMNT universe. Good work, dude.

Wow, so far so good. I was wondering when someone was going to update the TMNT Comic Continuity list! Good work.

Version 1.1. is up. It's been brought to my attention that Volume Two was made and planned not due to dwindling sales at all, but as a way to get on the color band-wagon at the time and was only cancelled due to sluggish sales near the end, due to turtlemania truly growing down by then.

Be aware, factions like the Foot, Triceraton Republic, and the like will be coming soon!

Just to add a minor correction, dude, you stated that there "is on word on Eastman's favorite turtle".

This is not true. Eastman (and others) have stated in the past that his fave is Raphael (which is why he was usually emphasized in many of the stories).

Laird's fave is, of course, Donatello.

Thank you. I always suspected as much actually, but just needed confirmation.
