The (some what) unexpected Legacy of Turtles #8 (RPG Edition)

Hi, Everybody!

Welcome back to AMOC where we TCOB about TMNT8.

First up, Iguana, how's that Big Board looking?

Well that's just swell...

Dave faxed:


The details of the Flash Sale for this on MARCH 15th are still being banged around.

But one of the things Dave Faxed was this:
Ya'll get the EMPHASIS?
The planning continued:

And continues:
So, this:
MARCH 15th. $20. Six more covers that are 500% enlargements of this art to follow if you people wanna throw money at them. POSSIBLY an A/V Portfolio at some point if the covers tank.

So, here's a part of the Legacy of Turtles #8 that I was PEVIOUSLY UNAWARE OF:

So back in the day ('87), they did a Turtles Roleplaying game:

I had a copy. Can't find it now. May have sold it when money was tight. May have sold it when I was downsizing at one point. May be at my brother's house in a box. Anyway, it's gone. But I found a PDF you can download online.

"So, Cerebus is in there?"

Not in an official capacity, BUT there are rules to make a mutant aardvark:

And while hunting for that PDF, I found out that there's a supplement called Transdimensional Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. 

This book covers time/inter dimensional travel. And they quote from Turtles 8 a couple times. No mention of the Aardvark, but look who shows up:



You can download a PDF here. If you need physical copies, the Core book goes for about a hundred bucks. Trans Turtles is more reasonably priced.

That card looks like the work of the Instructor of Art at Shelton State College.
