We Ship Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with Kevin Eastman & Ciro Nieli

The Ninja Turtles have been rebooted many times since Kevin Eastman sketched his first Michelangelo and self-published a few thousand comic books - but Nickelodeon’s 2012 reboot may kick the most shell. The architect of that reboot, Ciro Nieli, joins TMNT co-creator Kevin Eastman, and Michelangelo himself, Greg Cipes, to talk Turtle Power. Cowabooyakasha!

I found this episode late...I wanna add, Yes the 2012 show was the best new iteration of the turtles! Everything seemed to come together perfectly! Thank you Kevin & Peter for these characters. Thank you Ciro for the love you put into that show! Thank you to the cast! It made me pull out my original figures and new ones and appreciate them more!

[@kusheditz5094]

I really wish the 2012 tmnt turtles voice actors come back in a future ninja turtles show or movie

[@kusheditz5094]

I be so happy to see them and hear their voices in the turtles again

[@TheShipitShow]

That would be pretty cool ... Nickelodeon, are you reading this?

[@bellagreco9343]

YES, I'd want a movie, at least. I loved hearing about Ciro's idea in an article I read a while back.

[@jj549]

It's cool getting to see the cast and writers again. Miss this show and honestly have some questions. I know it's over right now, but if anything was going to be added, like say mini episodes or a spin off, could we get some hints please? Maybe episodes where the turtles accidentally go to the future, like Renet's kind of future? Newtralizer's story with the Kraang and why he's different from the rest of his people. I've wondered why he's the only "evil" one. I see season 5 as an alternate story, so one of many possibilites, not the canon one. Had a theory that maybe the Kraang took him to try to perfect their mutagen or maybe to try and control him to be like a security guard? It would be good if he had an arc that explained why he is as he is, if he could talk to Slash again, maybe become an antihero and how it connects to the other salamandrians we know. I feel like he and Mona could be connected somehow, since she could've easily been a completely different race that looks like a lizard and he could've been say the last of his kind still have a race, but two different lizard like people. Like what if his was more aggressive than hers and had fewer individuals because of the wars, hence why he and her look so different. She seems like she could have some secret, possibly a shocker. Felt that she and Raph might eventually become friends since she's very duty bound ofcourse to her people. It would be great to know more about her. Something more to each of the girls, like an episode without them being romantic, just treating the turtles like friends, just to see them outside of the crushing. To see Fugitoid return, Casey's little sister getting to know the turtles maybe? The Kraang actually having hundreds of secret bases around the globe as a preparation incase one base was found. Like one of the best places might've been the Bermuda triangle since it's so mysterious and the turtles never knew until new mutants start popping up and maybe some old mutants from the farmhouse like the chimera one and the punk frogs invading New York? Something drove them from their homes? Maybe Alopex returns and bonds with Raph and Casey? Those are some ideas if the show was to return and answer some more questions. Who knows maybe we will get mini episodes or another short season. If any more crossovers, like say with the rise turtle that would also be cool.

[@NoName-ug3yw]

Ciro had some potential episode ideas and even a movie concept. The episodes included a Raph/Casey team-up a la the original one-shot, a 2-parter with the Dream Beavers again, and a movie revolving around older turtles battling the mutagen bomb from Mutant Apocalypse.

[@pepitopacquiao]

I hope they have a 10th anniversary special in September 29th, 2022 please

Holy shit, so happy for the vegan message at the end!

[@AhimsaWitch]

[@rachelstout6186]

I wish the Turtles and the Titans could do a crossover. And speaking of crossovers, with the TMNT and Power Rangers crossover, what was up with the lady Turtle? I haven't seen her before or after seeing that.

[@joshuaashby5864]

That’s right

[@TheShipitShow]

There was an unofficial Teen Titans GO! vs. TMNT crossover on TTGO! I just posted it in our Community tab, so check it out. The female Turtle was Venus De Milo, and she was the fifth Turtle created for a short-lived, live action TMNT reboot produced by Saban, the people who made Power Rangers. That's how the crossover happened. Since the show didn't last long, most people know the crossover more than the actual TMNT show that it came from.

totally bingeing! now just need some behind the scenes content :D

[@GroovyMee]

I love this show :D!! There are certain ships that can change and flow so nice in every TMNT universe , Donny(or Casey)/ April and Leo/Karai are good examples. There are different reasons why the the Bruce Timm's Batgirl/Batman shipping is cringey and hasn't been put out in front of any popular story ;/ I love all the Turtle movies too , some more than others but I love them all :). I'm trying to eat healthier and happy to say I've eliminated piggies out of my diet officially :D The Mad Max TMNT 2012 episodes were ...ok but not my faves ,they also clashed with the Rennet storyline where she told them she would see them again etc.

[@TheShipitShow]
