        I still don’t understand why he never got his own spinoff show… It looks like a CG show was made in 2018, but it’s about one of his descendants in the future 😞

            That looks awesome dude! I was actually thinking they could have given him a really good spinoff from the 2003 series. The character had a lot more depth and they clearly took it much more seriously in that one! I grew up on the original 80s series but the 2003 run has always been my favorite lol

                Oh wow! I always thought TMNT was inspired by Frank Millers Daredevil run! There are so many similarities: ninja jumping across rooftops at night, an older martial arts mentor named after wood “Splinter/Stick”, a clan of ninja bad guys named after a body part “The Foot/The Hand”, a secret war going on in the sewers of NYC, etc

                    I thought the origin of Daredevil and the Turtles were literally the same event also? The same chemicals that sprayed DD in the eyes and blinded him ran into the sewers and mutated the Turtles.
