#87 - Radical Corner of Turtle Comic Talk




Positively Nerdy show

Summary: Welcome to Positively Nerdy! It's once again time join myself and our awesome pal Suine Hallock as we head into the Radical Corner of Turtle Comic Talk! This time around we're talking Alopex, City Fall and the new Animated Adventures!We say it every time but it needs to be said again: this series just keeps getting better and better! The City Fall event is heating up with the reveal of 'dark' Leonardo - one of comics' worst kept secrets during the last few months - and the story has readers on the edge of their seats. Suine and I begin the episode discussing the Alopex Micro-Series issue by Brian Lynch and Ross Campbell. Lynch and Campbell craft a masterful tale, getting inside Alopex's head, revealing her past as well as dramatic clues to what her future might hold. Then it's onto issue #24 of the ongoing series . Crafted and written, as always, with Kevin Eastman and Tom Waltz and artwork by Mateus Santolouco. This issue is overflowing with story including: Shredder and Karai's relationship, the new dynamic between Slash and the Turtles, the cunning of Old Hob and the aforementioned reveal of 'dark' Leonardo! And if you're digging the Nickelodeon TMNT cartoon then IDW has you covered with the all-new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: New Animated Adventures. We discuss the first issue by Kenny Byerly and Dario Brizuela as a perfect companion to the animated series this issue finally convinced me that the 'Nick toon' verison of April is the best iteration of the character we've ever had.
