Buy this volume of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! amzn.to/48CmwFj
Hell yeah. I had these first three volumes growing up. So when the Original Movie came out, I knew what I was in for.
I'm crying tears of joy

Please cover the original mask by dark horse comics
I'm glad that ComicPop decided to give the guys different colored flannels so I can tell them apart!
Glad you're here, loved the recent video.
Oh God! I didn't even notice!!!
I wonder if it was on purpose or not?
😂
Could’ve done with letters on their belts but it’s pretty good I guess
Loveable Nerd Lumberjacks
The great thing about the 2003 series is that it's basically the og mirage series with some modern additions
Yeah it's super strange to them but to me it's like inherent TMNT lore
The 03 series had one of the creators, Kevin Eastman, as one of the producers which is why it's so close to the Mirage comics
@@TheCaptainKuhnI thought it was Peter laird
Ben’s reaction to TMNT coming out in 1984 is gold
I never knew that the 2000s TMNT cartoon show was so faithful to the original comics. I mean sure they took their liberties but pretty spot on.
Yeah, having had read the comics when the show came out, I got pretty excited with season 1 of that series.
Helps that Peter Laird was consultant for the show
The 2003 series was one of the shows where I became more and more desensitized as a child.
The amount of stuff 4Kids were able to get away with back then was insane.
Indeed, that's one of the several reasons I love TMNT 2003 so much.
@@UnseelieRose The 2000s show was my first introduction to TMNT
Shredder came into the fight with the Turtles expecting a duel of warriors. Instead, he got the 5 Boroughs Special. My man's got jumped by our little green pals over there.
Leo: "Get him up. Let him get up. Let him get up, let him get up."
Raph: "Fight back, Shredder! Fight back, Shredder! Fight back!"
The 5 Boroughs Special? 🤣
This belongs in the comment hall of fame
Well they were trained by a rat so it’s fitting they’d fight like one
YEAH BABY WE GOT MIRAGE ON BACK ISSUES
Hulkamania and Turtle Mania begin running wild in the same year
Giving ‚mania‘ a good rap.
What you gonna do when TURTLEMANIA runs wild on YOU, brother??🤣🤣🤣❤️💛❤️💛👊🏾👊🏾
“Major league butt kicking is back in town!” Is my favorite line from the original movie
You know its fun watching the generational difference of tmnt fans because while ethan and ben are suprise to see how different the comic is to the 80s show and 90s movie. Im here, who saw and is a big fan of the 03 cartoon, nobbing my head like yep that's a tmnt staple!
"In my bathroom corner" is my favorite Ethan line
Mirage TMNT is an adventure. And it does have the Rat King. He showed up in the Tales of the TMNT side series and iirc was quickly killed by being knocked off a wall into his abandoned building lair, having his back break, and being left to starve to death/die of exposure.
Yes. He thought he had powers of various monsters. It's later hinted that there was something possibly mystic about him. He appears to Splinter when he dies to spirit him onto the other side.
11:46 Ethan: "Well how does she eat?", Ben: "With her mouth". Then Ben just sits there and chuckles to himself lol, I love it! 😂
Ive never clicked a Comicpop so fast in my life.
This is it.
"just like we keep down the dolphins, elephants, and octopi..." Funniest thing I've heard in a while 🤣😂
"we got normal grounded stuff aaaand space, SPACE, *SPACE*
exactly how I feel about literally anything lmao
I always liked how the end of Turtles Forever was set in the original comics’ universe
I love how Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is actually just a glorified Daredevil Fanfic.
Didn’t realize how close the 2003 cartoon stayed to the original comics.
That is why it was created. Peter Laird wanted a TMNT cartoon that was faithful to his comics. It wasn't a remake of the 1987 cartoon like so many people think.

2003 was the best tmnt hands down
Still the best TMNT series. No contest.
That was my intro to the series too!
2003 show is the best!
To me, it's a tie between the comics, the first movie and 2003.
Im curious to know what everyone's favourite Turtles cartoon is. Personally I love the 2000's show. Leave a reply with yours!
I like all of them, but I’ve seen “Rise of TMNT” more recently.
2003 for me
2003's series is what introduced me to this wacky world!
Even though I grew up with the 1987 series, the 2003 series is by far my favorite TMNT cartoon.
I’ll never forget listening to Casey Kasem describe the origin of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on American Top 40 right before playing Bobby Brown’s “My prerogative” in like 1989
Sal used to come into my job and I would always talk to him about tmnt. Stoked you guys finally got around to this one. Hope you guys talk about the city at war arc eventually. Cheers.
Hey dude!
Hey buddy! I still listen to the show all the time. Stoked on all of your success!
You have to show Ben & Ethan the 2003 TMNT animated series. Just to watch as all of this unfolds b4 their eyes.
What happens to Baxter stockman in the 2003 series is insane
@@mttylerdurden9 that man became more machine than man by the end of the series. I think he was just a brain by the end
It’s cool how much a world can evolve and grow when you’re flying by the seat of your pants and just build on what sounds cool at the moment.
"Sometimes our myths come from hollow places,"
Ooof, that hits hard 😵😆
It seems so… wrong to say the TEENAGE Mutant Ninja Turtles are 40 this year…. *shudders* 😭
The years between 8 and 18 pass slower than a snail. The years between 18 and 50 pass faster than a hare with a hotfoot.
@@nonnayerbusiness7704 That's... too real.
The original TMNT comics are some of my favorite… talk about comic-bunga lol
It would be kinda funny to celebrate the turtles 40th birthday by making a comic where the turtles are 40
40 Turly-years are about 25 human-years. Since they are male-coded, the turtles would still behave the same as we know them🤷🏻♀️
@@cybercop0083 That's close to my age so that's pretty chill
There’s a series from the 2000s where they were in their 30s so wouldn’t be a big leap from there
@@rueblie2627Umm. Are you talking in literal turtle years? The Turtles have always been 15, even the 2003 Turtles despite them acting way older than their age (except for Mikey).
@@galaxy_kitten95 I think it’s human years, I don’t really remember. The point is they said they were 30.
Middle aged mutant ninja turtles, middle aged mutant ninja turtles. Turtles with back pain, turtle power.
Splinter naming the Turtles makes me think of how the names were chosen in Gargoyles.
Eh, splinter put a little more effort into it than looking at street signs or a map.
Sal not even mentioning how Shredder was resurrected by WORMS left me with a worm shaped hole in my heart...
I think we said it in the other episode.
“I LOVE BEING A TURTLE!”- Michaelangelo 🐢💛
At 0:23 Ben’s reaction to the revelation of 1984 Mirage Ninja Turtles had me rolling!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks to this video, I bought the ultimate collection that you are holding right now, thank you guys!
What's funny is I'm listening to this & understanding everything cause the 2003 TMNT show was closer the comic so I was like "OH I know where this is going"
The original Mirage comics makes me want to see an R rated Ninja Turtles adaptation that embraces the dark tone of the comics.
The closest you'll get to this comic is the 2003 series
@mttylerdurden9 probably.
There’s apparently an R-rated Last Ronin adaptation in the works.
@@daelen.cclark I did hear about that.
So... the executives stopped at the first 3 issues and said "ONLY THIS".
not really because in the next two volumes, the movie pulls more from that. at the every least the next volume has the shredder and the foot clan return to fight against the turtles. in that volume the turtles get's the butt kicked and moved to North Hampton. which this story point is in the second volume.
Idk if I've seen Ethan with a beard before, but it's badass
I'd love to see Ben and Ethan reaction to shredders resurrection. Worms! Worms!
The Rat King is actually from Mirage, but of course he's nothing like the toon. To avoid spoilers, his issue is a major head trip. Totally worth a read.
As the turtle that "does machines" it makes sense he'd get a complex widget to fight with at some point.
Yeah but Mirage Don isn't a super genius like his counterparts. He's more of a Mr. Fix-it/IT guy.
Eastman and Laird are from Dover, NH and it's about 20 minutes from me. They had huge celebrations for them and they have stuff in the city made for them, it's a huge point of pride for us new Hampshire people lol
Fun fact, there is actually an entire issue of Tales of The TMNT where they focus on whether or not Fugitoid is a copy of Honeycut or actually him (they confirm he's a copy)
And there actually is another Dinosaur based alien species in Mirage TMNT, which are based on Styracosaurus
There's actually three alien dino species if you can believe it. The third one is called the Protoceratons and their princess might possibly be Mikeys baby mama
Learning Ethan is from Maine feels like a retcon
I hope this does well so you cover other TMNT stories. Like Dreamland, the story that got the Archie Turtles cancelled! It's the one where One Eyed Raph punched a Herr Adolf in the face.
I feel like Honeycutt’s consciousness transfer follows SOMA’s rule of copying consciousness. 2 copies that exist simultaneously, until the pervious is destroyed.
Wow! This is amazingly accurate to the 2003 animated series... Or the other way around I suppose.
Dude the second animated show, TMNT with the song "turtles count it off, 1 2 3 4, mutant chain reaction, living underground, ninjitsu action, it's a shell of a town" that show was awesome and surprisingly super faithful to this comic.
Just in time for my lunch break, thanks guys!
I hope your lunch break is an hour and 45 minutes! Otherwise, it's time to pretend to be on a work-call
Buc-ees shirt! Drawfee would be proud
I had to stop and go back for the lobster discussions because that was hysterical
You have done a wonderful job covering the early Mirage TMNT run. Subcribed!
21:55
He's called The Shredder because Eastman And Laird based his design on a cheese grater.
31:51
The Rat King First showed up in the Mirage comics as well.
I'm very pleasantly surprised at how many people in the comments are finding out that the 2003 cartoon was based on the Mirage comics.
I would LOVE for y'all to do the Usagi Yojimbo comics. Like, from the versions used in the cartoon, NO ONE will be prepared for what Sakai did in that comic.
I can't wait for Sal to talk about worms 😂
So excited for East Warehouse on Lairdman Island version of the story
First time I heard that line was from Sam Rockwell.
Ethan rocking a beard is amazing plus I do love the coordinated style of clothes, not intentional I'm sure
Image turtles? There has to be perfect balance.
I may be on a diet but...get the pizza out 🍕 it's TMNT time!
At 36:20... The building that Baxter Stockman threatens to destroy is the Baxter building from Marvel's Fantastic Four. Neat! 😂
Makes me want a Marvel x Ninja turtles crossover even more. 😎
22:24 I’m pretty sure Golden Harvest made Jackie Chan and/or Bruce Lee Kung Fu movies back in the day, which would make sense.
Yeah, Golden Harvest was a MAJOR kung fu film company from back in the 70s. Golden Harvest & the Chow Brothers were the two big companies from back in the day.
Also, yes. Golden Harvest did most of Bruce Lee's films.
That would explain why the fight scenes were so awesome.
@@teddybeer6206 EXACTLY
I met Kevin Eastman at C2E2 last year and got my Last Ronin book signed. I will be watching this episode repeatedly as a huge fan.
Volume 2 of these collections covers basically the second half of the 1990 movie and is overall a more cohesive story and definitely worth checking out as well.
Great episode! I really hope you guys eventually cover Batman/Superman: Worlds Finest. It’s just so fantastic and entertaining. The Boy Thunder into Kingdom Come arc is truly one of the greatest Batman/Superman stories I’ve ever read! Love the channel!
Even if you don’t read through the original run there are a few really great runs later on. I’d shout out The River by Rick Veitch as an example - love this series, thank you guys for covering it!
Just in time for my lunch break! Cowabunga, dudes 💚
OMG that's the episode I was waiting for, I'll watch it religiously I find the original run of the Turtle a fascinating piece of media.
Man I wish I still had my mirage copies from back in the day ...just kick me in the nuts
"Octopi: smart as hell, and unfortunately delicious."
Great episode. Also it’s crazy how much the 2000s cartoon adapted from the comic.
This was a fantastic episode, and I'm *always* down for more lessons in comic history.
I always forget how actually insane TMNT started... or better put TMHT as I learned of them
40:40 Teenage Mutant Samurai Turtles, Warlords in a Half-Shell. Feudal Power
Favorite PART: When you guys are talking about Honeycut being a copy of himself and actually dead vs being transferred into the robot. LOL
If your a fan of the 2003 cartoon. All of this is in tbere.
I love that the Fugitoid's existence brings up the teleportation argument considering he brings up that same theory in the IDW series to Donatello in defense of the concept of reincarnation.
Did y'all coordinate on the dress code for this episode? It took me entirely too long to eventually notice that detail lololololol.
I really wanna see the guys’ reactions to both of Shredder’s resurrections
As someone who grew up when the 2003 show was airing, I never knew the Uroms were in the original comic and super early. I always thought it was an homage to the 80s cartoon, since I never heard Krang or anyone mention that name in the episodes I saw of the first show.
More fun than I was expecting
Bruh the original tmnt is nuts! Its completely off the rails
Oh my god, he pointed out "The Way Things Work" and starts explaining what it is, as I slowly turn in my chair and look across my office at my tattered copy the bookshelf... I was the only dork I knew that loved that book as a kid. Awesome!
Nice!!! Loved that book. Still have it on my bookshelf as well :)
Great job guys on covering the original teenage mutant ninja turtles it was freaking fantastic and tons of fun.
How things work actually had an animated series. Which is what I know it from.
My introduction to the turtles was the 2003 cartoon. Listening to this I see so much ideas were taken and adapted into that cartoon.
It's amazing to me, someone who grew up with the 2003 cartoon, just accepts all these shifts in story as classic TMNT lore. But to like Ben and Ethan it's just way out of pocket. Man the 03 cartoon was super loyal, and i love it!
Because like 95% of 30-40 year olds, they got introduced to the series via the 1987 series....which was just as weird, if not weirder than the comics.
The IDW Turtles are some of the best books out there
So many fantastic lines in this episode! Love it!
I said this a few years ago I'll say it again. Yall definitely deserves more followers. Such a channel
These original tmnt comics are insane and beautiful and most importantly super fun and thus iconic
Just a note. Peter Laird wasn’t a bachelor when they started working on TMNT. He was already married before he and Eastman met. You can get the story straight from him if you watch the Turtle Power documentary. Laird was also 30 at the time as he’s almost 9 years older than Kevin.
The art is so incredible.
I do kind of appreciate the fact that they decided to write what they wanted to write. Also the 2003 cartoon, the 90’s movie, and the 2012 cartoon are my favorite interpretations of the turtles
Man I’d love to see these continue
As someone who just realized his knowledge of the OG Turtles only comes from the very 1st issue & the Turtles Forever crossover, it was cool to find out how many of the ideas seen in future adaptations were introduced from the beginning. While it’s a demonstrably 80s concept, TMNT has proven to be quite a versatile and timeless franchise imo
This seems like it's more similar to the 2003 series than the 87 series. As a huge fan of the 2003 series I'm glad to know it was actually comic accurate
This was a hoot! Nice to see something different on the couch!
(That said, sorry. I tried a couple with the star wars episode but... I couldn't. But this was awesome! )
29:50 According to David Wise, one of the writers on the 1987 turtles cartoon, the idea was that the Turtles would indeed, as you guys guessed, have a human compatriot on the surface to relay information to them and so they created a plucky reporter character inspired by Lois Lane. And when it came to naming her, he just took the name of an unrelated character, April O'Neil, and gave it to his new reporter character. And fun fact, once again according to him, her design (mainly the haircut and Jumpsuit) was inspired by Fujiko Mine from the Anime Lupin the 3rd, where she wore that jumpsuit when she posed as a reporter.
I'm a really huge TMNT fan, to the point that very rarely do I learn anything new from this kind of thing, so I appreciate Comic Pop for telling me about the lobsters
Oh man, this comic brings back some childhood memories to me. I first saw TMNT as the 5-part pilot mini series of the late 80s animated series, to which I was drawn in by the better than decent animation (a trend not continued in quite a lot of the episodes for the regular series that followed) and the, how shall I put this... the original and unique world style setting of the Turtleverse. And I liked the animation as well, something which a good majority episodes in the regular series that followed appeared to have abandoned. It hooked me enough to seek out the original issue in this little comic book shop I found while traveling with my parents to Buffalo, NY, who tended to go every weekend to shop. And boy, was I ever intrigued by the comic, which I like far more than the animated series. I believe the first issue I could find was #10, which was the Return of the Shredder. I was immediately by this rendition of the main antagonist of the book as opposed to the animated series. The Shredder was actually a badass villain, and a legitimate serious threat to the existence of the heroes, rather than the whiny, cowardly Shredder the animated series presented. And so, I became more casual watcher of the series while becoming a more avid fan of the comic book. Eventually, the first live action movie came out (the sequels are best left unspoken of... diminishing returns and all) and I was pleased that while they kept the different colored masks and the fact that April was a TV reporter from the animated series, the overall plot followed plot points from several of those early issues.
Those were the days. And thank you Sal, Ethan and, yeah, I guess you too, Ben (just razzin' ya a bit), for helping me relive those memories...
woah! i didn’t know ethan was from maine! I am too! Idk why but It’s so rare to find other people in entertainment that are from maine, but i guess that makes it so much more exciting when i find out! (not to be weird, but i gotta ask) What’s your hometown? I’m from Freeport and Just graduated high school in 2022!
