Really enjoyed this and it seemed to fly by as a read Can’t wait to start Volume 2。

I really enjoyed this and seeing this kind of origin story。 I’ve seen different origin stories of the ninja turtles but this one I liked a lot。 A bit hard to get thru in the beginning but once you keep reading， you end up very invested

Tremendo。Siempre había querido leer algo de lo original de Las Tortugas Ninja y la edición en castellano de este reboot ha sido una gran excusa。Gran dibujo y muy buena historia， con unas tortugas mucho más oscuras y para nada infantiles， vamos， como se hizo en su día。Muy buen cómic， tanto para amantes de las TMNT como para gente que les gusten los cómics en general。

Great re-write of the origin of the turtles。 If you are a fan or interested， this is the place to start。

I didn’t know what to expect when I started reading this series， I was a little hesitant because I haven’t been enjoying a lot of mainstream comic titles recently and the characters origins are similar to the Michael bay films， DO NOT LET THAT SCARE YOU AWAY FROM THIS。 There is a reason TMNT has endured for so long， the characters are on point and this series does them justice and not a single one of them is disrespected， in fact every single one of them is enhanced in a way that is believable a I didn’t know what to expect when I started reading this series， I was a little hesitant because I haven’t been enjoying a lot of mainstream comic titles recently and the characters origins are similar to the Michael bay films， DO NOT LET THAT SCARE YOU AWAY FROM THIS。 There is a reason TMNT has endured for so long， the characters are on point and this series does them justice and not a single one of them is disrespected， in fact every single one of them is enhanced in a way that is believable an endearing， not just the turtles but the supporting cast。Highly recommended 。。。more

This is a bit like the Ultimate Universe reimaginging that Marvel did in the early 2000's。 A retelling of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in a new continuinty， which is perfect for someone like me who wants to read the comics but not necessarily the entire original run。The art varies from issue to issue but overall it was pretty good。 It was nice to see some variety in the overall designs while staying mostly consistent。I like the idea that Splinter and the turtles are somehow reincarnated from This is a bit like the Ultimate Universe reimaginging that Marvel did in the early 2000's。 A retelling of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in a new continuinty， which is perfect for someone like me who wants to read the comics but not necessarily the entire original run。The art varies from issue to issue but overall it was pretty good。 It was nice to see some variety in the overall designs while staying mostly consistent。I like the idea that Splinter and the turtles are somehow reincarnated from a family in Feudal Japan。 I'm not sure if this is a new idea in this series or if it was incorporated into the original run。All of the characters get their moments to shine and help differentiate them beyond the basics: Leonardo leading， Donatello doing machines， Michelangelo being a party dude and Raphael being rude but cool。This volume contained the first several issues of the main story-line as well as several one-shots that focused on each of the four turtles。 I found these helpful in giving each character a bit of space so they could grow and develop without being distracted by the other characters。Definitely a fun series I'll have to continue。 。。。more

I had only ever watched the cartoons as a kid。 And then I obsessed over the live action movies when they came out in the ‘90’s。 Had never picked up the comic。 I started reading this with my 5&7 years olds at bedtime。 They were into it for about half the story and then wanted to switch to something with more dragons 🤷🏼♂️。 So this got paused。 I picked it up again while staying at home after LASIK。 Not surprising: it reads faster when not reading out loud， pointing to each frame & explaining as yo I had only ever watched the cartoons as a kid。 And then I obsessed over the live action movies when they came out in the ‘90’s。 Had never picked up the comic。 I started reading this with my 5&7 years olds at bedtime。 They were into it for about half the story and then wanted to switch to something with more dragons 🤷🏼♂️。 So this got paused。 I picked it up again while staying at home after LASIK。 Not surprising: it reads faster when not reading out loud， pointing to each frame & explaining as you go 🙂。 This collection was really enjoyable！ Great story telling， page layouts and beautiful artwork with alternate cover art from different artists sprinkled in。 I enjoyed identifying connections between this， my childhood cartoon memories and the live action movies。 Super fun。 Can’t wait to read the next volume。 。。。more

My friends and I have conducted two interviews with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Eastman and you can watch them here https://youtu。be/gt5B_RxPeqY and here https://youtu。be/ZQ_xgNqtq4gThis hardcover is an achievement， not just in comic hero storytelling， but also as a printed collection。- chronology; this collects the first twelve issues， but also includes the micro-series tie-ins and one-shots， and they’re placed exactly where they belong in chronological order。 As someone who i My friends and I have conducted two interviews with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Eastman and you can watch them here https://youtu。be/gt5B_RxPeqY and here https://youtu。be/ZQ_xgNqtq4gThis hardcover is an achievement， not just in comic hero storytelling， but also as a printed collection。- chronology; this collects the first twelve issues， but also includes the micro-series tie-ins and one-shots， and they’re placed exactly where they belong in chronological order。 As someone who is used to poorly collected Marvel and DC trades and HCs， this is ::chefs kiss::- a complete story; this hardcover tells a well constructed story with a beginning， middle and end。。。 tied off with a bow in the last chapters with a thrilling climax。 I could practically hear the theme music from the 1987 cartoon during that last fight。- art; perfect。 Bright， engaging， fluid and fun。 Exactly how the Turtles should look。- character writing; the character voices are masterfully constructed， unique， clever and natural。 This is grade A， 100% USDA approved awesomeness。 It has heart， it has badassery， it’s evokes nostalgia but doesn’t rely on it， and if makes me want to shell out bukko bucks for the rest of these TMNT IDW Collection hardcovers。 RIP WALLET！！！ 。。。more

As a hardcore Teenage Mutant Turtles fan， this impressed me。 Great origin stories of our favorite heroes in a half shell。

Sometimes it's difficult to give a grade and this time was no different， I'd love to give it a higher grade but since I'm limited to the solid 1-5 stars I'll settle for a 4 out of 5。 This was a great introduction to the characters and the world building was great， this is a great starting point for people who are new to the TMNT franchise and I'd imaging it's a great series for well versed readers as well！ A great book and start to the series！ Sometimes it's difficult to give a grade and this time was no different， I'd love to give it a higher grade but since I'm limited to the solid 1-5 stars I'll settle for a 4 out of 5。 This was a great introduction to the characters and the world building was great， this is a great starting point for people who are new to the TMNT franchise and I'd imaging it's a great series for well versed readers as well！ A great book and start to the series！ 。。。more

This is my first time reading TMNT comics and I really enjoyed myself。 I grew up on the original cartoon and live action movies so I was familiar with them but just never got around to trying a comic。 Good stuff。 I plan to hunt down the other books。

While I'm not a huge fan of some of the changes to the Origins of TMN， i realize they cant just keep telling the same tale。 Other than that I absolutely loved this book。 Beautiful art。 Just a great time all around。 While I'm not a huge fan of some of the changes to the Origins of TMN， i realize they cant just keep telling the same tale。 Other than that I absolutely loved this book。 Beautiful art。 Just a great time all around。 。。。more

I read this on the recommendation of a friend， and it did not disappoint。 As a kid who was really into the Turtles in the late 1980s， this was an incredibly sophisticated read。

The bada** looking turtle on the cover immediately caught my eye; Raphael was always my fav。 TMNT。 Flipped through this a bit at the store， this looks like a pretty epic collection！

I’ve got to say， I’m not as impressed as I hoped to be based on all the hype I’ve heard around this “new” IDW series。 It reads like a lazy rehashing of every TMNT origin story I’ve seen thus far （with one notable exception I won’t get into here）。 The characters are bland， and my favorite vigilante badass of all time - Casey Jones - is so flat and dull， and his dialogue is written with the most generic urban inflection。。。 It’s disappointing。 The artwork is the biggest redeeming quality。 Dan Dunca I’ve got to say， I’m not as impressed as I hoped to be based on all the hype I’ve heard around this “new” IDW series。 It reads like a lazy rehashing of every TMNT origin story I’ve seen thus far （with one notable exception I won’t get into here）。 The characters are bland， and my favorite vigilante badass of all time - Casey Jones - is so flat and dull， and his dialogue is written with the most generic urban inflection。。。 It’s disappointing。 The artwork is the biggest redeeming quality。 Dan Duncan’s visuals are fresh and dark， and while the appearance of the human characters often varies from panel to panel， the turtles themselves look stellar！ I’ll give Vol。 2 a read one day， but overall， this collection didn’t leave me thirsting for more right away。 。。。more

I started out reading the IDW series by going through each individual trade paperback， but it felt disjointed that way to say the least。 Now I got my hands on the deluxe collections and I'm having a blast。 Rather simplistic， but fluid and dynamic linework by Dan Duncan， best storytelling from Eastman by far， probably thanks to the collaboration with Tom Waltz and the colors by Ronda Pattison are the perfect blend between the atmosphere established by the original covers back in the day and the m I started out reading the IDW series by going through each individual trade paperback， but it felt disjointed that way to say the least。 Now I got my hands on the deluxe collections and I'm having a blast。 Rather simplistic， but fluid and dynamic linework by Dan Duncan， best storytelling from Eastman by far， probably thanks to the collaboration with Tom Waltz and the colors by Ronda Pattison are the perfect blend between the atmosphere established by the original covers back in the day and the more cartoony style of the animated shows。 The excellent Microseries one-shots are finally compiled into the ongoing in a proper order and function as episodes enhancing the story instead of giving off the impression as tie-in filler。 。。。more

I’m not sure how this will tickle the fanny of those who are new to the Ninja Turtles， but—wait， what？ It’s “fancy”？ It’s not “fanny”？Huh。 I’ve been using that phrase incorrectly my entire life。 No wonder I get such funny looks every time I use it。 Especially when speaking to British people。Anyway。For those who obsessively bought Turtle toys and read the comics in the early 90s （such as your impressively beschnozzed reviewer）， this is a fun， fast-paced origin refresh that features plenty of nods I’m not sure how this will tickle the fanny of those who are new to the Ninja Turtles， but—wait， what？ It’s “fancy”？ It’s not “fanny”？Huh。 I’ve been using that phrase incorrectly my entire life。 No wonder I get such funny looks every time I use it。 Especially when speaking to British people。Anyway。For those who obsessively bought Turtle toys and read the comics in the early 90s （such as your impressively beschnozzed reviewer）， this is a fun， fast-paced origin refresh that features plenty of nods to the past， some fresh twists， and solid artwork。 If you’re new to the hormonal amphibian scene， this would be an ideal starting point。 And if you don’t know why British people think I’m horribly vulgar， just ask one。 。。。more

I had been looking forward to reading this for a while and it did not disappoint！ The main series issues collected in this volume represent and awesome and fun re-imagining of the TMNT lore with lots of actions and awesome art。 The turtles have very unique personalities， Splinter plays a much more prominent role in the story and Casey Jones and April O'Neil now fit much better in the story than what I remembered from my childhood。 Even General Krang has the start of an awesome character arc whic I had been looking forward to reading this for a while and it did not disappoint！ The main series issues collected in this volume represent and awesome and fun re-imagining of the TMNT lore with lots of actions and awesome art。 The turtles have very unique personalities， Splinter plays a much more prominent role in the story and Casey Jones and April O'Neil now fit much better in the story than what I remembered from my childhood。 Even General Krang has the start of an awesome character arc which I can't wait to see play out！The only reason why I did not give this 5 stars is because the collection also includes many character focused one-shots which are fun reads but with varying level of art quality and story telling with most of them not on he same level as the main story arc。 That being said， highly recommended read！ 。。。more

So technically I've read the whole thing， not just the first volume， but seeing how the whole thing was 104 issues， I'm counting it as one of my significant reads of 2020。 It was great。 The TMNT have never been written better， not just as a series， but as characters。 When written poorly， or blandly， the individual turtles are just written as stereotypes。 Leo is no-nonsense， Donnie is a nerd， Mikey is an idiot， and Raph is a psychopath。 But this series is above that。 It takes the time to show the So technically I've read the whole thing， not just the first volume， but seeing how the whole thing was 104 issues， I'm counting it as one of my significant reads of 2020。 It was great。 The TMNT have never been written better， not just as a series， but as characters。 When written poorly， or blandly， the individual turtles are just written as stereotypes。 Leo is no-nonsense， Donnie is a nerd， Mikey is an idiot， and Raph is a psychopath。 But this series is above that。 It takes the time to show the ideologies and personality quirks of the turtles。 Not only do the turtles feel real， they also seem like a real， and loving family。 A concept that is often overlooked in Michael Bay movies。 Overall， 5/5， and Old Hob rules， but sucks， in a good way。 。。。more
