Wow.. is that possible? Hardly anyone here talks about the new comics anymore. j/k! > I'm working on a letter to Peter, I figure we need to get more of us > with letters in the comics again, names we recognize.

But then, wonder how many of those are the real names of some of the online folks/lurkers here. ;] > Anyway, here's the Obligatory Spoiler Space: > > > > > > > > > > Needless to say, I was psyched by the Cha Ocho (or one possible > translation: Number 8 Tea??... okaaaaay.... ) and Leo sparring match. > really want to know what the backstory is on this, and what the big > grudge is about.

Digging up loose ends fromt he past and building onto those. And then making ya go, hrmm... ;p > Heck, if that person wants re-inventing the wheel, that's what almost > all the comics movies do--start with the origin--and lets face it, > the new cartoon is doing, too.

The TMNT story at this point is a legend, and those really never seem get old no matter how often it's told.

Just gonna have to sit tight and see... *rrrrrr* :P ~HT ===== -=[Linkin Park : Motion Man]=- Because from the start to the end no matter what I pretend The journey is more important than the end or the start And what it meant to me will eventually be A memory of the time when I tried so hard http://www.turtlequest.com __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
