Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Saturday Morning Adventures #1
SCORE: 80
There was a limited run series of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Saturday Morning Adventures. That lasted for four issues. Right after
that IDW Publishing decided to start an all new ongoing series of
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Saturday Morning Adventures. That means
there are now two Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Saturday Morning
Adventures #1. The same thing will happen for issues two through four. I
am trying to figure out how we will differentiate them on our website.
There will be spoilers in this review.
The main issues families can have with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Saturday Morning Adventures #1 is some cartoon violence. There are
twenty pages of comic book content within Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Saturday Morning Adventures #1. After that we get one of next month's
covers, alternate covers for this month, and finally some
advertisements. This is pretty normal and standard for what IDW
Publishing releases.
Two gentlemen are hauling some blue liquid in containers out to the
dump. They have two or three more loads to get through. The driver is a
bit tired and distracted. The driver swerves to avoid hitting an elderly
man begging. Some of the canisters fall out and go into the sewer.
Initially I thought this was the origin story of the turtles. Although
their slime was green and not blue. I was way off base with that
thought.
A canister is picked up by some rats and taken to the Rat King in
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Saturday Morning Adventures #1. This
canister breaks and an airborne something hits the Rat King in the face.
He loses his telepathic connection to the rats. The rats all leave him
in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Saturday Morning Adventures #1. The
Turtles do come to him instead. So Rat King now has the turtles to do
his biding.
Thankfully Master Shredder and April O'Neal are able to save Donatello
thanks to a stun gun April has on her. The electrical jolt frees his
brain. The three of them realize they need to save the remaining mind
controlled turtles. That does not happen in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Saturday Morning Adventures #1. The story is to be continued. The mind
controlled turtles are more rodent looking at the end of Teenage Mutant
Ninja Turtles Saturday Morning Adventures #1.
