The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of TEENAGE
MUTANT NINJA TURTLES NEW ANIMATED ADVENTURES #3 from IDW Publishing. The story
is by Scott Tipton and David Tipton, and the script is by Scott Tipton and
David Tipton, with Kenny Byerly. The art is by Dario Brizuela, colors by Heather
Breckel, and lettering by Shawn Lee.
The turtles are in the middle of watching a zombie
marathon when they give up and go to bed. Unfortunately Michelangelo can’t
sleep (scared maybe?) and decides to go skateboarding. He encounters what could be
zombies and runs home to alert the guys. Master Splinter forces the turtles to
investigate as it would be bad to ignore a warning. Have our heroes run into a
zombie invasion, or something more diabolical?
I’ve never watched or read the animated, lighter version
of the turtles, just the original material or the more recent books. I really
enjoyed the light-hearted, fun and humor of the issue. I would put this series
on the list to start the youngsters into reading comics, although anyone will
enjoy it.
TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES NEW ANIMATED ADVENTURES #3 is
