Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and IDW celebrate 40 years this July

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and IDW celebrate 40 years this July #comics #comicbooks #tmnt

After the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) made their debut in a black-and-white comic by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird in 1984, the Heroes in a Half Shell went on to become a global phenomenon. Over the next forty years, countless talented people across the entertainment industry worked passionately with the beloved franchise, allowing adventures with new iterations of TMNT to consistently…

Note: ok! Here it is finally!!! Imma work on the covers for this but for now, here’s the cover for chapter 1🤣if you’d like to be added to the taglist let me know.

Expect The Unexpected Ch 1

Word count: 2520

Taglist:

February 2nd, 9:10pm, Eastern Standard time.

The night was like any other night in Brooklyn, it was quiet and calm. Just relaxing on the couch with my dog Chilè, with a cup of honey chai. The moment was blissful till I heard the front door slam shut.

“Well you're here late.” I sighed heavily and glanced at my on again off again boyfriend Damian, of 3 years. I’ve been allowing him to crash at my condo for a few weeks, till his apartment was done being fumigated.

Looking at the clock, it was 9:15pm. He’s been doing that a lot lately, which isn’t odd. I’m used to it by now but I always had a sneaky suspicion. We've been having all kinds of arguments lately and I have a feeling there is gonna be another one.

“Yeah? What about it? I’m here ain’t I?” He shrugged and placed a kiss on my head, before heading to my kitchen. “What’s for dinner?”

If the facial expression I had could kill, it would be deadly. “Nothing. I had already eaten with my family a few hours ago. You’ve been out all day, you could’ve found yourself some food.”

“All you had to do was make me some food, Kianna. That’s it. Not that hard to do.” The tone he had with me was uncalled for. I made my way to the kitchen, putting away the mug I had.

“Or you could just get up off your ass and cook ya damn self, Damian. You’re very capable of doing it.”

He chuckled deeply, and then glared at me. “It’s your job to feed your man, you know?”

“Not when he has his own hands and his own place to cook at. You have hands, use them. Dumbass.” I had had enough of his crap to the point where I was fed up. “You ain't shit for saying it’s my job to feed your ass. And you still ain’t shit for coming here late every night since I let you stay here. You do not even help around here.”

His arched brow was a draw in a battle. “I help around here you know.”

“Damian, no you do not.” rubs my forehead, I shook it in annoyance. “Whatever it is that you are really doing, I hope it is worth it. You ain't shit for how you've been treating me lately.”

“You ain’t shit! That’s why I cheated on you.”

And there it was. The honest truth finally reared its ugly head.

“Really? I ain’t shit?” I glared at him with an electrifying expression. “You’re really gonna stand here, and tell me that when the girl you're messing with doesn't really want your scrawny ass?!”

“Yeah right, we’ll see. She is better than you, you know that right?” His smug grin etched on his face, showing some kind of pride. We made it outside to the front of the condo, on the sidewalk.

I scoffed and began to walk away from him. “Whatever Damian. You can go fuck yourself! I’m done.”

“Yeah, yeah. We’ll see about that too. You always come crawling back to me.”

To get him away from me, I started walking backwards. He came closer with every insult he could muster, that is until I shoved his head with my middle and pointer finger. Which caused him to stumble back into a muddy rain puddle.

I stifled a laugh and then it came out in a full blow. I was holding my stomach in the process. It was too funny.

“What the fuck is so funny!? Help me up!” He demanded and tried to get up, but to no avail he kept sliding back into the mud.

I rested my hands on my knees and came into eye level view of him. “Oh nothing. Just you finally falling on your ass.”

“Stupid bitch! I swear to god I’m gonna-“

“You aren’t gonna do shit. Have fun with your little toy who you think loves you so much. I honestly should have cheated when I had the chance.” Dusting off my jeans, I headed back inside and locked the doors. Finally being rid from him for good, as I heard him yelling in the background.

“I really gotta change the locks. Good thing he left his keys on the counter.”

-10:30pm-

The whole argument replayed in my head over and over again as I laid on my bed, staring at the ceiling. A smile etched on my face as I finally achieved peace. I wasted 3 years of my life on and off with this guy, who really did not give a crap about me. On top of all that, I’m still in school to become a nurse no less. He was right about one thing though, I was always foolish to go back to him thinking he was gonna change. And he didn’t do it once at all.

I felt hot tears run down my high cheekbones, staining my light blue sweater. Having my heart broken this time around, I felt like the world was crashing around me. I normally ended things in my past relationships when moments got too hot or they didn’t last very long. This time it was different, cause I went with my heart instead of my head. I thought Damian was different, and boy was I wrong.

I couldn’t shake it out completely. Wounds don’t heal overnight, but I knew I had to be strong for myself. Gathering my thoughts, I managed to take a hot shower. As time passed I felt something touching my hand, as the hot water hit my rich sepia skin. I looked down at my left hand and saw an indigo colored spider crawling on top of it. Before I smashed it, it bit me.

“Shit!” I yelped silently in pain, soothing the back of my hand as much as I could. “That hurt like a bitch.”

-The next day-

After finishing my nursing exam, I had returned a phone call to my parents to check up on my siblings, as they were out on work business. I had gotten on the bus, and sat in the back. Looking at my hand thoroughly, from the bite, I noticed that it was gone but the bruising was still there.

“That was weird, It was just there yesterday.”

Getting to my destination, I made sure Mrs. Hamilton, the only neighbor my parents trusted to watch my siblings, was good to go. After that, I decided to take care of the wound on my hand, before I checked on my siblings to make sure they were asleep. Oftentimes, I’d wait for our parents to come home from work, on some late nights. Tonight was no different, as they were working late. As the older sister, my job was never done even though I lived 4 blocks away.

Placing a kiss upon each of their heads, I smiled gently to myself as I closed each door behind me, and headed to bed. The twins were my everything and I was honored to even be their sister. Trying my hardest to be the best example possible.

Once I was settled down for the night in my secondary room, I felt a bit better about everything. I drifted to sleep to prepare for my graduation obligations, and yet little did I know that that spider bite changed the rest of my life.

-4 years later-

“Alright Gwen. What am I supposed to be doing again?” I asked while wrapping my hands up with the boxing wraps, knowing I was already going to be sparing alone since I do my tasks alone anyway.

She thought a bit before snapping her fingers. “Try to destroy the targets in under a minute, without using your webs.”

“Done.” Smirking a bit, I leaped and flipped into the training module. Knocking out every single cardboard cutout in record time.

“45 seconds flat. Not bad, not too shabby at all. You gotta teach me how to do that backhand-spring into a roundoff.” She chuckled.

“It’s all in practice, kid. All in practice.” I smiled back, wiping the sweat off my brow. “I’m still shocked how the big guy does not know someone is using the training room.”

She shrugged as we walked out the room, after cleaning up. “He’s always at his computer screens anyway. Not like actually paying attention. Speaking of which, have you seen Hobie?”

Snickering a little I nodded. “Yeah he’s in my world, chillin with my cousin Saniyah, again. I’m sure he’ll be back soon though. I’m just glad they have each other.”

“For someone who doesn’t like labels, it seems as though he has a label when it comes to her.” Gwen chuckled a little.

“You could say that. At least they’re both happy and know the risks. If only it were actually possible to have a love life.”

The thought of them both being happy made me feel good. I was happy for them, and that’s what I wanted for myself. I practically had everything I’ve ever wanted except for a stable relationship.

I graduated from medical school, so I help the other spiders if need be in the medbay. I have a great job back home in my world. But there’s a lot of things missing in my life and I do not think it is possible to have a love life.

“Well, we just gotta find someone for you. You’re a great catch Kianna, and anyone would be lucky to date you.”

“Thanks for the encouragement Gwen. I needed it, truly I did. I’ve been in my head lately, and this talk helped.”

As we headed towards the cafeteria, a portal opened and Hobie came out of it. “Ello, ladies. What’s shakin?”

“Nothing much, just got done training with Gwen. How was your visit with my cousin?” I arched a brow and smirked at him. There was a slight tint of pink on his face that I could see.

“She’s just- I can’t describe it Kiki. She’s amazing, truly. Thank you for introducing us, love.” His voice cracked a bit describing how he felt about my cousin. Thus, causing Gwen and I both to chuckle.

“Well I’m glad you think so. Because she is, even though she isn’t a spider.”

“I’m perfectly fine with it. A cat and a spider, opposites attract in my book.” He nodded in his typical cool way.

Like a switch went off, he inquired a bit. “Speaking of opposites, have you and Miguel talked yet? You’ve been here for like 3 years now.”

“He’s only spoken to me about missions, at least 4 times, which was at least 50 missions with you and Jess. I’ve been doing medical stuff since I’ve been here.” I shrugged and grabbed an empanada. Biting into it, my face contorted in disgust.

“Whoever made these needs to be handled accordingly. These are nasty.”

Hobie and Gwen both let out a gut busting laugh, minimal tears coming out their eyes. Rolling my fireball red colored eyes at the two, a smile creeped up my face. I enjoyed my time at HQ every now and then. It was a second home after all.

“I agree. Not enough flavor.” A deep baritone voice said behind me. We all stopped and turned around to see Miguel himself in the cafeteria. He was taller than I remember last time, which didn’t really mean anything but it was significant. Miguel stood at a whopping 5’10, almost 6 ft height, compared to my 5’9.

“Boss man. What are you doing down here, with us common folk?” Hobie broke the silence.

“Well I wanted to know what all the laughter was about and came down.” He glanced over at me longer than I anticipated. His scarlet red eyes gave me a once over, piercing into my soul.

Arching a well trimmed brow, I crossed my arms over my chest “Seeing something you like, O’Hara?”

He scoffed and shrugged. “Not really, just wondering what you all are doing. Carry on and try not to be so loud, alright?”

“You got it!” Gwen smiled nervously and we all watched him walk away. “That was weird.”

“You’re telling me. Imma go shower and take a nap. See y’all later.”

Leaving them to their own devices, I went to my little apartment in HQ. It was a smaller version of my house back home but doable. The steam of the shower eased the aches in my muscles, soothing them out in the process. The jets of the water pressure made it even more relaxing. Upon lathering my brown sugar body scrub on my legs, I had images pop in my head. I could not make out why my head was swimming with images I didn’t recognize but it seemed familiar.

Getting ready for bed, I made sure to tie my box braids down and drifted into a deep slumber. The images were clearer now. I could finally make out Miguel’s suit and my own, drifting away from the nano tech that had made them. Why was I dreaming of my boss and a new suit? Little did I know the dream version of me wanted him more than anything in the world. A soft groan left my full lips, as I tossed and turned in my sheets, the images shifted to a more sultry scene of Miguel and I in a very compromising position.

I jolted up from the bed, breathing heavily. Trying to catch my breath and make sense of it all. “I really do not need this shit right now.”

Rubbing my head to calm myself down, my phone rang and I noticed an odd caller ID. It was Miguel. “Hello?”

“Delgado. Sorry to bother you but we gotta go, team mission. See you downstairs in 10 minutes.” And just like that, he hung up.

A deep sigh escaped me as I grabbed my bracelet to have my suit on me. All I had on was a purple Nike sports bra; matching spandex shorts and slipped on my sneakers. Upon walking out the door, I felt something sharp prick my bottom lip. I looked in the mirror on the wall.

“Ouch! What was that? Did I bite my lip?” I was worried and confused till I saw a set of decent sized fangs pop out in four places. “Holy shit.”

I didn’t have time to be fascinated over them, I’d have to deal with that another time. I met the team downstairs at HQ, just in time. I slipped my head cover for my suit on, and noticed a rip on the back.

“Damn it. I’ll have to fix that.”

“Ready to go?” Hobie asked as he saw me pull my braids into a bun.

“As I’ll ever be.” We all got into the portal, surrounded by fluorescent colors.

I couldn’t get thoughts of Miguel and I out of my head from a bit ago in my dreams. What could it mean exactly? Who knows really, I just hope it’s nothing life changing.

Last Ronin

[longroadhcme]

Who are you most attracted to in town? (all muses)

HONESTY HOUR.

"Is it acceptable to say myself? 'Cause, we all know I'm the cutest around these parts." A smirk following, typical and very-Katherine in nature. "But, for the sake of your curiosity, we'll go with that delightful looking Isaac fellow. His jaw, well, I could just bite into it. I'd say Lucien, but he's falling in the poll due to his recent endeavours. Stefan, of course. I think that much goes without saying, have you seen him? Oh, and can't forget that delicious Alfonso, have you seen him without a shirt on? Trust me, he's doing us all a service with those abs." @ofsteelehearts, @ofkingmakers, @moralivity, @hoaxwings.

"I've not really been paying attention since I got here. There's been more pressing matters, don't you think?" A shrug followed, mind wracking for anyone she'd clocked in the meantime. "Let's just go with familiar territory, and say that Atlas is up there. Rightfully so too." @hoaxwings

"When you're in the line of work that I am, it makes finding anyone attractive pretty difficult, 'cause you know underneath the pretty face, there's a deep rooted pit of despair and supernatural trauma." Evidently, she'd had a taste for that in the past. "But, for the sake of shallow tendencies, Greyson is definitely easy on the eyes. I don't think we've had the pleasure of meeting yet, but Mason Lockwood is also enough to make anyone's eyes flutter. And, despite everything, I suppose, Klaus is still on the list, if not purely for attraction purposes." @darkncghts, @theirdiaries, @ofchaoticminds.

"After the pity party I witnessed, I'm not sure anyone is actually 'attractive'. In order for me to find you as much, you'd need to not run around crying because of people actually being honest with one another." It was safe to say that CJ was hard to please, especially when it came to such departments. "In fact, we'll just go with that guy who embraced the chaos with me, Brent, was it? Otherwise, ask me again when things have calmed down, and maybe I've seen other sides to people around here." @ofvengefulwrath

"I think we all know one of my answers here, so not sure if it's even worth acting surprised? But, Damon, obviously is up there in the list. I mean, his eyes alone are enough to lure you in, let alone the activities included in our friendship." Was it even considered as much, these days? They hadn't crossed those lines again thus far. "Aside from him? I'll never tell him, for his ego would double in size, but Lucien definitely has some level of appeal. But, perhaps that's just his pretty face? 'Cause as soon as he talks, that attraction dwindles. And, lastly, I guess we'll throw in two curveballs, on a purely physical basis, 'cause lets be real, they're shifty little buggers; Mikael and Tristan." @ofchaoticminds, @ofkingmakers, @dxddyoriginal, @de-martel

@siiinfultemptation​ || Dani and Isaac

“Scott, if thats you....” Dani called, as she walked through from the Kitchen, and stopped dead in the  hallway as she looked at a male she didn’t recognise. “Well you’re not Scott.” She replied, raising a brow.

Who was this male standing there in the doorway?

“Erm... he’s not here if you’re looking for him.” She then said, keeping her distance from him, not knowing who... or what he was. 

“May I ask who you might be?”

TMNT: THE LAST RONIN II - RE-EVOLUTION #2

June 2024

By Tom Waltz, Kevin Eastman , Esau & Isaac Escorza, Ben Bishop, Luis Antonio Delgado, and Shawn Lee.

Odyn goes through a health scare, as the city gets in more trouble.

SCORE: 7

Boy, do I have things to say...

I don't know why the pacing is always a problem with "The Last Ronin." The people involved are all pros, yet, they continue to make the oddest decisions. And I understand the why... but the results are just amateurish, if I may say so.

Let's start with how this mini is trying to expand the universe very aggressively, taking up pages and pages of exposition. Most of the time I was wondering if I should be taking notes for all the information being dumped on me. It's cool that this is now redefining the role of Baxter and the Fugitoid in the original miniseries, but in the past, that would have gone into a micro-series.

And the reason that cannot happen anymore, is because there is no ongoing "the last ronin." Which, at same time, is a marketing strategy to always come up with a new best-seller #1. In other words, marketing is getting in the way of telling these stories properly.

The Turtles slowly getting special abilities was a no-brainer, but I am wondering if maybe they are going too far. Being mutant ninja animals wasn't enough?

I am also getting the idea that Jiro will be the new Nobody... who I don't remember right now if he was introduced in this universe already.

I also get the feeling that Bishop will be introduced into this universe very soon, considering the chess references.

Despite my problems with the excessive exposition, it is still interesting to see a universe expand (but I am guessing it will be harder on a second read). Hopefully all this exposition will play out in later issues.

I am honestly surprised that people love this universe so much. I do feel it has potential, especially with the new turtles, but something is a little off with the writing... and the art.

From human faces glowing like plastic, to hard to follow phone conversations, there were a few moments where the art really took me away from the story.

Considering how long it is taking to release the whole mini, I would have placed specials in-between issues focusing on the Fugitoid, Splinter, Jiro, and maybe even Casey. I don't know, it would have made more sense to expand the universe that way, to make the main story smoother. Perhaps something to consider for the next mini?

"Creatures of the Night, Prepare to fight!"

THE CREW'S BATTLE CRY.

The Storm Bringer is the name of a pirate ship that Hannah Hook and her crew own.

It served as headquarters for the pirate crew and can be seen throughout the series 'The Marvelous Misadventures of Hannah Hook and Co.'

——————————————————————————

Description:

——————————————————————————

The Storm Bringer is an old pirate ship that Hannah Hook won and fixed up for her crew. Repurposing it as a safe house/boat/home for her crew and replacing the sails with three homemade sails that have a matching flag up on the crowsnest, a single red flag, and two additional crimson red flags.

Its walls are covered in artwork that she and her crew made as well as random treasures they have picked up over the years. 

The wood is mainly brown with hints of red in some places and it has many rooms that the crew share (some of these ‘rooms’ are just areas with curtains hanging up to separate them. 

It is one of the few ships on the isle that is almost fully intact and the shape its in has been described as ‘remarkable’ by the few older pirates that have stepped abroad since the ship came into Hannah Hook’s possession. 

——————————————————————————

History:

——————————————————————————

Hannah Hook acquired the Storm Bringer from it's pervious owner, Blackbeard, in a poker game that she bested him at when she was 6.

In that game, she not only gained a ship but two new enemies (Blackbeard and his son, Barnaby) and the respect of the elder pirates on the isle.

Her first three crew members were Luke Tremaine-Westergaard and Skia Aoratos (her 1st and 2nd mate respectively) and River Le Beak (who decided to just be a crewmate) who helped her build her crew and repair the ship.

They ended up renaming the ship 'The Storm Bringer' and replacing it's old sails with ones they made themselves before tossing the ones in the storage closet.

And over the years, Hannah and her crew ended up redecorating the ship to make it feel more like home. Using art pieces they each made, rewards they'd received, and random treasures they had found to do so.

They even added on to the ship, making more rooms and making it look more intimidating and wild in the process.
