Screw It, We're Just Gonna Talk About Comics

• Hines In A Half-Shell: Leonardo, Donatello, Michaelangelo One-Shots

  In the early days of TMNT comics, the creators published four separate one-issue "micro-series" for each of the four turtles. Basically one-shot stories for each one. We reviewed the Raphael one-shot a bit earlier in this season. This episode we take a look at the stories for Donatello, Michelangelo and Leonardo. In general we liked these just a bit more than the "regular" issues the creators were doing at the same time. These one-shots are simple and uncluttered and really fun. For Loose Screws, Kevin talks Peacemaker season 2 and what it's like to be out of sync with the opinions presented on social media. Will talks about the video game Baby Steps.

• Hines In A Half-Shell: TMNT #9

  We are up to issue 9 of the original run of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle comics. This is a stand-alone adventure in which the young turtled and splinter help an old man pass on the honoable samurai magic of his family to his grandson. We are seeing Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird pull back from working on the comic. This issue they wrote and helped ink but did not do the pencils for. As the Turtles get more popular, this will be the pattern! Next episode we go over the one-shot comics for Leonardo, Donatello and Michaelangelo.  For Loose Screws,  Will talks about the Marx Brothers and Kevin talks about The Knives by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips.  -------------- Subscribe for monthly bonus episodes at screwitpodcasts.com Email us at [email protected]

• Hines In A Half-Shell: TMNT #7

  We go over Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #7! This is the end of the "outer space" arc. It's a very busy issue with lots of exposition but the art is beautiful and the comic remains fun. For Loose Screws, Kevin discusses two recent graphic novel biographies of Jack Kirby and Stan Lee!

• Hines In A Half Shell: TMNT #6

  EPISODE 331 - We go over Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #6! This is a continuation of the epic "space" arc in which the Turtles meet Fugatoid, the Triceratons and the Federation (something like that?) The art is more ambitious than ever! The action is fun and compelling! The dialogue is... out of control with huge Stan Lee levels of exposition on almost every page! But the comic is fun! For Loose Screws, we talk about staying in Christopher Reeve's house and also Spinal Tap! Now that's loose! ---------------- Email us at [email protected] Subscribe for monthly bonus epsiodes at screwitpodcasts.com, if you please!
