TMNT Volume 2 & The Brilliance of Brevity In Comic Narratives 

Agreed

@@yellowstarproductions6743 Me too

Lawson made Odyssey and recent Shredder limited series not so long ago, if i not mistaken.

​@@JackfromshackHe drew those, as well as creating his own fan-comic, Turtles 2030; writing and drawing this time.

Thanks! But I wouldn't really call myself a veteran haha. I'm not opposed to making a video on 2012 eventually, but it's not on the agenda quite yet

​@@TatoruzuI was 3 when it came out and I am only 15 so I get but will you take about any that isn't the cash cow or mutant Mayhem

​​@@Tatoruzualso I have some ideas for the channel for you what if you rate your turtle design also how would you write a tmnt show or book

@@Tatoruzuwhat year did you get into tmnt? You definitely sound like a fellow OG. You have the taste of a veteran respect.

I don't think it takes a dozen issues to tell an origin story. Mirage explained the entire origin story in a few pages.

From the looks of it, he started lifting weights lmao

@@Tatoruzu he was a scarny billionaire tycoon turned greedy terrorist on the fbi most wanted list who destroyed the unofficial "fantastic four baxter building" and threatened to 911 the twin towers in 1985 with his mousers, to being knocked out by Raphael when he was about to commit suicide by bringing the mousers back to his bunker to eat him the turtles and april they left him in the sewers in that dark bunker to be arrested by NYPD looking for him whilst the turtle drops off april on the surface and looks to find splinter in their ruined compromised first lair what was baxter stockman up too between the t.c.r.i. saga gaining casey as an ally the shredders return / Massachusetts saga to return to nyc to city at war go we're to assume he was locked up in prison got jacked there, to escaping prison to hitchhike and make his way to area 51 D.A.R.P.A facility. I wish they would've made a comic for baxter stockman diving deeper into his life as a m.i.t graduate getting into tech a.i. robotics and pest extermination to being a psychopath having a romantic crush on his employee april up to himself being foiled by the turtles.

@@Tatoruzu also speaking of 911 why does the tmnt predict it in the 1985 comic and 1987 cartoon that the twin towers were going to be destroyed and why do they have illuminati references in the tmnt media like the 1987 2003 and 2012 show.

@@Tatoruzu I mean he was a scrawny dude, but they never explained or shown what he was up too after issue two during the events of the t.c.r.i saga, the turtles making an ally out of casey shredders return back from the grave the Massachusetts retreat return to nyc & city at war, by then baxter would've atleast tried to get revenge on april sooner he was ousted by the nypd apparently by april if we're to assume thats the first thing she did when she got cleaned up, was notify baxters crimes to the FBI to put him on the most wanted when he tried to anonymously threaten the twin towers in the year 1985 after he destroyed an unofficial fantastic four baxter building in issue 2. But they don't show any aftermath after he tried to kill himself along with april and the turtles with his own mousers after being knocked out by Raphael in that bunker in the lower level of his stockgen building, we assume he was picked up and jailed after the turtles drop off April on the surface and find splinters gone missing in a struggle with mousers and their old lair compromised by baxters stockgen mousers. I wish they would've made a comic exploring his life like the Dream wave idw comic & 2003 show attempted to give him a backstory, of how baxter grew up to be a M.I.T graduate an A.I. robotics engineer starting a pest control buisness startup to having a crush on his employee april O'Neil to going mad and insane to being foiled by the turtles.

@@tyronleung5276 The Twin Towers were a recognizable landmark, so seeing them destroyed instantly would let the reader know something major had happened and the city was in bad shape. Also, terrorists had tried to destroy the Twin Towers before 2001. The failed attempt was even referenced in the 1990s Spider-Man cartoon. I don't know anything about Illuminati references in any TMNT shows. (And I've only seen a couple episodes of the 2012 show.)
