IDW is as good as dead before the end of the year and they will start losing licenses, which means someone else will get TMNT eventually.

If you were put in charge of, at minimum, the first 100 issues of a new TMNT comic, how would reboot the story from it's start and what would you do with a long-running story? What would you do differently or avoid doing? What plotlines would you bring back?

[Assistant] Casey Jones would have his basic backstory with Hun from 2003 where Hun is responsible burning down his father's shop and his murder. Jones would be a written as violent vigilante akin to Daredevil, you know the inspiration for the TMNT, and get his own comic run that's much more grounded. TMNT has always had the sci-fi shit in its DNA and I know not everyone likes how far it goes all the time. I think giving Casey his own comics would help give a balance for fans.

>Story starts in the late 80s
>A younger Oroku Saki is sent to New York to establish a new branch of the Foot Clan
>The Foot Clan has previously only worked as assassins for hire, swaying politics and history through their skillful assassinations
>Saki wants more than that. He starts using the Foot Clan and recruiting new soldiers to fashion himself into an underworld crime boss
>Meanwhile, mid-level researcher at the mysterious Tech and Pharma megacorp TCRI, is sick of being stuck under someone else's boot
>He decides he's going to fund the creation of his own company by selling some of TCRI's highly classified research to get seed money
>The Foot Clan main family is getting sick of Saki's shit and Elder Clan leader Hamato Yoshi himself goes to pay Saki a visit
>Yoshi shows up at Saki's HQ and beats the shit out of some the thugs that Saki has been surrounding himself with for not knowing who he is
>He barges in on Saki's meeting with Stockman, who is explaining all the things they've discovered while researching this unknown ooze that TCRI has been supplying to them to do animal tests with
>Saki and Yoshi fight and Yoshi nearly bests him, severely wounding Saki's face in the process.
>Saki catches him by surprise by flipping a table and shoving him out a top-floor window with the case full of ooze samples
>Yoshi lands in a dumpster and is assumed dead by Saki, who is now turning his attention towards Stockman
>Stockman wants his money, but Saki insists he didn't receive any product.
>After a series of threats that make it very clear that Saki knows where every member of Stockman's family lives, Stockman is forced into being an undercover lackey for the Foot Clan.
>Several Foot Clan goons go out to recover Yoshi's body only to find it's not there anymore.

The Turtles go on a road adventure, visiting different places where they may encounter other dangerous enemies and progressively uncover a conspiracy and stop them.

However, the Turtles aren't some kind of honorable crime fighters. They fight them is because most of time trouble come looking for them. Raph might enjoy beating them up to blow off steam. They have no reason fight to protect a population they're not a part of whatsoever. Usually, they will kill their enemies once and for all. If they don't it will increasing their odds of getting exposed to the world.

[Assistant]
I would have liked some slight down time for the turtles leading up to this point. At least compared to how much they have to deal with.

What has really made the turtles a lot more fun to watch is helping other people, doing good around New York and not just constantly defending themselves.

Also, them finally trying to incorporate ninja mysticism/magic and doing it wrong is devastating to me.

[Assistant]
Whole thread has got me thinking that redoing various iconic arcs and callbacks to old comics and shows has mostly led to the TMNT being crippled by poor storytelling. Every time they should veer into unfamiliar territory and simply tell an original story, they go running at full speed into some flimsy reference that doesn't stand on its own, unless you worship the original Mirage run like a holy text.

Donnie has to become a wizard because the old comics did a thing with Jack Kirby having a magic pencil. Raph has to run off and go be a solo biker because the old comics did that. Mikey has to become a celebrity because the old comics did that. They have to have a North Hampton arc because the old comics did that. All the Turtles have to get split up and go do some fucked up shit because the old comics did it.

Is it too much to ask to just have a fucking story where they just stay together and work as a team? It's not like they hate each other or they've each done some unspeakable evil to their family. The one thing they should want more than anything else, especially after what they've been through, is to just be together as a family, working together.

[Assistant]
Surprised to see so many other anons agreeing in that they prefer their turtles being Street Level as opposed to getting too whacky and bizarre as is usually the case when they're fighting aliens or creatures from Dimension X and such, thought I was almost alone on that. As someone else put it, I rather enjoy when the Turtles are usually the weird ones standing out and throwing everything and the kitchen sink (space travel, time travel, different dimensions, magic, etc) into the mix really dilutes the experience

What I would prefer in any TMNT reboot
>Keep the 80's approach where Splinter IS Hamato Yoshi rather than his pet rat, I like the contrast of Splinter having once been human whereas the Turtles were previously animals, and it also is nice when the Turtles have a bit of Yoshi's DNA contributed to their mutation makes them feel more like his sons
>Purple Dragons and the Foot Clan are perfectly fine as enemies, all the cool ninja war stuff going on between Splinter and Shredder should stay
>More mutants are fine, I think so long as everything can be traced back to TCRI and the ooze, it's fine to have more mutants appear since the circumstances that created Splinter/the Turtles are repeatable. Bebop and Rocksteady, Fly Baxtor, Leatherhead, Alopex, and others would be fine to add to the mix
>It might even be cool to include Krang but revamped to be a creation of the ooze or another extremely mutated mutant rather than an alien, or create Triceratons (or a sleu of other Dino Mutants) by using their remains in combination with the ooze. The point being that it keeps the story focused when you're only dealing with one or two really bizarre elements like focusing on the ninjas / ooze mutations thing

Superheroes are just glorifed soilders and special ops agents created to use their world changing powers and capabilites to destroy, defend and fight threats to the people, they are kinda like american idealized war gods, their purpose is to wage war and tip the scales in a battle against an eternal enemy force for as long as theirs evil and badness. They literally cant function without conflict and battle. Its only when they rescue civilians its the exception, but thats related to the battle effort to save lives which they will die to protect. The bad side in all this is their can not be a winner or loser in this conflict between heroes or villains, no peace or victory for the heroes or no total domination for the villains, its an eternal war and more ways to expand their gimmicks in the same way.

The entire comic is a deconstruction but in Irredeemable this exact criticism is made against our heroes. The Plutonian hands over what he thinks is a small and safe piece of alien technology to a scientist genuinely interested in helping humanity plus an emergency communicator and it all ends in disaster anyway.

This, Kyle wasn't just giving people free food, he was making it easier for people to grow food, so they still have to work for it, it's just a lot easier now, which means there will be less food insecurity and people will have more time and opportunity to improve other aspects of their society.

Reed Richards has said more than once that the reason he doesn't share his most basic inventions with mankind, like for example, his Unstable Molecules so everyone could have practically eternal clothes and shoes is because that invention alone would destroy the entire shoes and clothes industry all across the globe, leaving millions unemployed and ruining their lives.

Lex Luthor is an interesting case, though: he canonically has the cure for cancer, AIDS and other lethal diseases but he refuses to let mankind have them because he sells medicine that treats that only partially, and having mankind buying his expensive, half assed treatments is more profitable that curing everyone once and having no more sick people to buy medicines from him.

When written correctly, Lorna and Alex are the anti-Scott and Jean. They just want to be normal and live in the desert, fucking each other bareback and doing geology assignments in the desert for beer money.

Also, they were designed by Jim Steranko and Neal Adams, giving them iconic designs appearance-wise.

They are good characters and quite frankly deserve way better than the shit they normally get.

The chief problem with Alex and Lorna are what you just said. They want to be normal and in a perfect world, they would have been retired/embargoed after Giant Size X-Men #1 and never seen again, living happily ever after save for weddings and crisis crossover events when the X-Men call in their reserves.

But fans love them and writers like Claremont actively RESENT dealing with their fans, hence why he kept turning Lorna into a brainwashed puppet for villains and why he shitted all over Alex writing him as a whiny faggot and simp for Maddie Pryor when she turned evil.

The point of Havok is that he's defined by being Cyclops' younger brother. He was living a normie life when he started getting dragged into mutant stuff, and everyone around him expects him to be another squad leader dedicated to The Cause like his brother, and he gets pressured into it and forced to try and be that guy, even though he still just wants to live a normie life.

Lorna didn't have any siblings until a retcon in the 2000s that was undone just over ten years later, and never overlapped with anything Wanda or Pietro were doing anyway. Modern readers constantly comparing her to Wanda are looking at the costume headdress and nothing more. Lorna was basically the same sort of Silver Age Good Girl archetype as Jean was, so stood out better when not on the same team, and then Morrison and Austen made her crazy, something the character has struggled to shake off since. But at the bare minimum what she brings to the table is being a hot, stacked green-haired girl, with a power that's pretty useful to have around.

Also, because Chris Claremont didn't really care about Alex or Lorna, they both got mind controlled or possessed and turned evil by villains a lot. Also, despite what >>136973340 says, Claremont did turn Lorna into an amazonian super-strong tall woman late in his run.

So it's as much as a headcanon nothing as "Wanda is Magneto's favorite" or "Wanda, Pietro and Lorna all practice the religion Magneto himself doesn't even follow anymore" then? Those Magneto simps are a curse on Lorna and the twins.

>Lorna was basically wallpaper in HoM
You've just reminded me that when Avengers Children's Crusade had flashbacks to HoM, Lorna was left out because Brevoort didn't like her being retconned into being Magneto's daughter, in his eyes that was Wanda's defining thing. It says so much about how Marvel have mistreated them both.

>and Wanda was a glorified plot device in a story that fundamentally wasn't about her at all.
And yet it got to define her so much that even the MCU thought they had to copy it.

I imagine there has to be some kind of limit on who gets brought back, just because they can bring everyone back doesn't mean they should bring back all the villains and psychos. If you're a murderous villain and nobody cares about you enough to want you back, you're probably staying dead.

[Assistant]
>>136980073
It's less Family Guy and more American Dad in its humor, where most of the comedy is from the characters dealing with the wacky situations they find themselves in instead of just the weirdness or raunch being the joke itself. It's also surprisingly story-focused, with each episode directly leading into the next and plot points from before popping back up again.
The trailers made it seem a lot wilder than it actually is most of the time, it as well withheld the characterization the cast gets in favor of emphasizing the stereotype aspect of them instead, Twink was hurt the worst by this.

It's a solid 6/10 to low 7/10. The big thing that holds it back is you can tell the creators wanted more episodes but had to deal with what they got, so a good chunk of rationality in certain plot decisions get swept under the rug.

I think you are making it clearer, though correct me if I am wrong. But I can kind of understand, it seems like a fine line in terms of what can or can't be joked about. But back then it seemed like everyone was in the fold, there was no one that could not be poked fun at. Nowadays in the mainstream it's not like that due to many groups sensitivities about these subjects. And then there is the new counterculture that goes to the other extreme of trying to get a rise out of those "marginalized groups". I wish the world wasn't divisive these days, people are so polarized about things.

Sometimes I wonder... How would the world be today if we still continued with the mentality of 90s and 2000s, and all this feminism, race, minority, SJW and others would never have achieved relevance

What would series and movies be like today?

Who knows, maybe things could be more enjoyable in terms of the entertainment industry. People would be more so focused on merit than simply checking a box. Perhaps characters who happen to have those "identities" be they of a different race, orientation, or creed. They could be written with maturity and nuance, beyond simply putting a spotlight on something just to give attention to the "current issues" within society.

I don’t know what cope argument the LGBT community has: this is a heterosexual couple. If you’re a bisexual man and you’re dating a woman, you are in a straight relationship. I don’t care if you’re bi, that woman automatically isn’t. It’s cope for trend chasers who want the status of being gay and bisexual people who need to constantly prove they’re gay enough to their gay friends.

>If you’re a bisexual man and you’re dating a woman, you are in a straight relationship.
It's funny how actually this causes so much controversy in the LGBT community, especially if you're a bi woman, but if it fits the narrative people jump to support it.

Here's your good LGBT representation.
He's a closeted gay man who has had his entire life fucked up in a very human way, he has many many flaws, and his sexuality is both an important part of his character, yet not a defining trait of his.
The best gay character in all of cartoon history is Clay Puppington, because he shows that gay people are still people, and can be evil and detestable for all the same ways a straight person can, and while it's treated as a joke too, its never a joke at the expense of homosexuality, its a joke at the expense of Clay.

Tranny acceptance would happen way faster if they let us poke fun and laugh at them in our movies as long as we go "ah but you're alright buddy!" like we did with the gays in the early 2000s.

The character in the OP is liked/rule 34ed because he/she represents what the people who are attracted to trannies actually like about them. Hyperfeminine mannerisms, but with male self awareness and sexualized feminine traits, despite the ugly artstyle. Tranny chasers like sexually aggressive men who look and somewhat act like sexy women; some of them even prefer penises to vaginas or a more muscular, androgynous physique. It's a simple thing to understand, but all this ideological shit about how trans women are literally women is alienating some men and pissing a lot of actual women off.
