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

[@teddybeer6206]

I sometimes question IDW's choices when it comes to coloring Mirage issues.

[@keithbrown8236]

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.

[@user-kd7im7hs2j]

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.

[@TheTurtleNexus]

To a certain extent it was also used in the 1990 movie and the Rise cartoon (although it had to be very short there because they were already ending the series).

[@KasumiKenshirou]

I was very surprised when the 2003 4Kids TMNT cartoon had Shredder get decapitated. (Due to his changed origin, he was able to walk away from the fight, though.) The guy that played Leo was also in The Venture Bros., and mentioned in a VB panel that someone got fired for allowing that to happen.

[@teddybeer6206]

He didn't "supposedly" die. It really happened. He was brought back to life using black magic and occult science.

[@jamilfrost6217]

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.

[@raphaelhamato7546]

One of the best comic arcs of all time.

[@Bubblegob]

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.

[@noodle3384]

thank you again, i dont want these to end

[@johnpittsii7524]

Thanks for the amazing video ❤

[@user-mh9qz4qi1f]

nice video

[@keithbrown8236]

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

[@TheTurtleNexus]

Some of the decisions made for the recolorings are weird. I need to use the recolors as much as possible to break the monotony of black and white on video, but in some cases I use the original (not even the black and white reprint, because it is missing tones).

[@keithbrown8236]

@@TheTurtleNexus I spoke to Steve Lavigne at a recent comic convention. He told me that for the FIRST TMNT collections (he colored book 2,3 & 4) he worked of photo copies Eastman had mad of pages be for toning was done. He said IDW colored copies of the finished pages, which included toning.

[@TheTurtleNexus]

@@keithbrown8236 Depends on the collection. The ones from "city at war" look plain.

[@keithbrown8236]

You are right, color City at War look don’t look to have as much gray tones under the coloring. Wish I could talk to the colorist on the IDW books. Also the IDW City at War individual issues are bright and make Lawsons art look sharp, while the Works collections are very dark and the art look muddy.

[@lucasgibbs4050]

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

[@TheTurtleNexus]

I didn't come up with the numbers :p The year of publication is usually not the same year in the story. If I remember correctly, of those three years, one was spent in the farmhouse. But you know, continuity wasn't Mirage's strength, so things at some points, fans have to make decisions on how things fit for them.

[@prosperotorres7965]

Classic Comic Book Time. How else are the Turtles 🐢 still Teenagers into the 90s?

[@BenDaresAll]

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

[@TheTurtleNexus]

I'll be reviewing it very very soon.

[@BenDaresAll]

@@TheTurtleNexus yes please!

[@DM006]

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

[@TheTurtleNexus]

I will make a dedicated Mirage Foot clan video in the future, but I will also cover some stories that have mystics in them.

[@hugomonstah]

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

[@TheTurtleNexus]

They were all in black and white. I use the recolored versions for videos to break the monotony.

[@hugomonstah]

@@TheTurtleNexus thanks man

[@tyronleung5276]

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

[@TheTurtleNexus]

Well, TCRI utroms and Triceratons were going to appear in the second movie. But you know, marketing wanted to go in a different way.

[@tyronleung5276]

@@TheTurtleNexus I don't think so cause budget and the studio wanted to keep it cheap

[@KasumiKenshirou]

@@TheTurtleNexus And so the Secret of the Ooze ended up being...a company made it. Wow. How exciting.
