Greencapt, that shit's cool. I never realized it before, but now that I know, it all makes perfect sense.

LOL- I was a Miller 'Daredevil' junkie back in the day (who wasn't?) and TMNT came shortly thereafter. What's REALLY funny- and I'll have to do a video capture someday of it- is a videotape I have of an interview Eastman and Laird at a comic convention from around that time. TMNT had become a popular small press comic but nobody outside of the direct sales comic world had heard of them. They're quoted as saying somrthing along the lines of "Well, we were approached by an animation company about doing a cartoon... but we doubt that THAT will ever go anywhere." HAHAHA... so sayeth the soon to be millionaires! Kevin Eastman who would soon buy and become publisher of 'Heavy Metal' magazine and marry model/actress/amazon Julie Strain.

Oh and notice that the Turtles once were drawn with tails... but they were deemed too phallic to include in a kiddie show so they were removed!
