Would love to see a season 2 of fast forward

Thanks for watching! Do you think Agent Bishop earned his redemption?

I love hearing the interconnections between 2003 turtles and Mirage turtles

Dude your content is epic

Bishop is one of my favorite TMNT characters. Even though I grew up with the 2012 series and that weird "Utrom- Bishop", I remember him from the few episodes of the 2003 series I managed to watch. A powerful man who believes that all of his acts, no matter how heinous they are, are for the greater good. Best! Type of villain! Ever! I think he is a worse threat than the Shredder or Kraang. At least they know what they do is evil (in most versions). "I am a bigger picture kind of guy. Besides, I've proven that it would be beneficial if 53% of the world's population simply vanished". Although I don't remember it well, that scene where Bishop was interacting with Splinter and explaining to him his plan to release super warriors onto the world to destroy possible alien invaders stuck with me. This guy was okay with killing dozens of people, just so can be sure that there are no aliens living among them. Let's be honest. When "villain who thinks they're on the side of good" comes to mind, you think of names like Judge Claude Frollo, Bradford Buzzard, Emperor Belos and of course Agent John Bishop.

Yeah 11:43 like we never saw the man who turned into a monster and the Rat king (as I don’t see a video on the 2003 version yet) as they both should have returned in Fast Forward but I think he kinda earned his redemption in the flashback. But it never did explain why Bishop needed a new body if he has been alive for centuries as to why the Aliens did this to him to give him immortality and especially that thing crawling around his body was also never addressed and that are his clones immortal like him especially the Rat king. But don’t you think that Bishop should have appeared in the 2014 and Mutant Mayhem as realistic that the Government would consorted about Mutant turtles and aliens exist in both of those movies? But I guess you would talk about the IDW Agent Bishop and the 2012 version?

Agent Bishop was probably my favorite character in the 2003 series. He just seemed so mysterious. And he was deadly in hand to hand combat. He was able to hold his own against the Turtles, Splinter, Leatherhead, April, and Casey! Same with the Turtles, Karai, and Hun in a later episode. He even managed to outsmart and capture Karai who was shown to be pretty cunning herself. He was a refreshing change of pace from the Shredder.

I wonder how he’d deal with the transformers in a Tmnt/transformers crossover since they’re aliens? I also wonder if decapitation can take him out for good since impalement failed?

What’s the next 2003 video about for this month? You said it’s another villain?

Wow, this is kind of crazy. I just now started rewatching TMNT 2003, and got this video recommended. Splendid summary and deconstruction of Bishop's character. You have earned yourself a follower! Keep it up bro!

Who knows in the new series? It seems Bishop will appear.

There is nothing more terrifying than a man who will do anything and everything for the safety of others, even the most drastic and horrible actions.

Thanks for the amazing video

Déjà vu

I'm pretty sure some of his character design was also inspired by: Lon Chaney Phantom plague doctor Inquisitor The Shadow etc

Another cool aspect of the original Mirage 3 issues is how the team of Eastman, Laird, Lawson and Talbot shared art duties, changing the look of each chapter.

I wish he appeared in the 2012 TMNT series

He turned into a shark mutant

Thoughts on tales #43?

The IDW coloring annoys me, the clones being a solid color and Zog’s reveal picture has him wearing purple gloves. Zog has purple gloves on the cover of 7 but the return to NYC cover he doesn’t, it is such an amazing cover, they should have matched it

It’s hard not to like the original cretins😂They’re as iconic as the turtles themselves.

Honestly I always considered the 2003 Baxter Stockman to be a very tragic character

This was my favorite story arc in the comics when i was a kid. I still want a classic Armagon figure

i never read the color panels. i always thought they were black and white

thank you again, i dont want these to end

I wonder how he came back for the last ronin comic books

nice video

Hey, the Forever War with Chris Allan is out already! Will you be reviewing it?😊

I would’ve called the merged Bebop/Killer Croc and Rocksteady/Clayface something like KillerBop and Claysteady.

The 2003 Utroms might be my favorite version, but I started with the 2003 TMNT show, so I admit there's some bias. That said, from what I've reasearched, the IDW Utroms seem like interesting antagonists.

This Shredder was peak If i see any of you 2012 Fans or 2005 fans coming in with a 'But its not better than ______', i grew up with every single show, from the first series, to the highs and lows, and let me tell you, all Shredders are peak, all of them have their own quirks, stop being negative

Thanks for watching! How does this saga rank compared to other Mirage classics?

One of the best comic arcs of all time.

Very hard to choose a favorite version of Splinter, original run Splinter is a great character, IDW Splinter is incredible, 2012 Splinter is imposing and this one is so lovable. Michael Bay proved you can miss with this character but he's a highlight in most Turtle media.

This show is incredible the art direction is great and while the sitcom part is not always good, there's still a lot of jokes that land. And when the show commit to its story the story is actually quite good. Could've been one for the ages.

Idk why The movies skip over the tcri utroms saga to bring in zog the triceraton shredder clones

Love the Splinter stuff and Karaï works but I still prefer return to New York. IDW version of City at war was fire though.

Best work from the duo on the original run plus some of the North-Hampton is top-tiers like Rick Veicht's story with Bloodsucker.

This is the most popular saga in the TMNT franchise. The Shredder returns after he supposedly died and defeats the turtles, forcing them to leave from New York and seek refuge in a farmhouse where they stay to heal. This was used in the 2003 and the 2012 series.

I remember the 2003 animated version. Where they had also added the Foot Mystics. PS: will you also talk about them in the future?

The original Shredder’s death was set in 1985, how would three years pass?

Return to new York is very close to my heart because it was the first tmnt comics i ever collected. The spred of the three clone shredders and decapitation of the original shedder by leo is engraved in my mind.
