Paul Pages

























Just received a brand new batch of pages from Paul. Words cannot describe how awesome they are! Tales 50 ships in September and I can't wait!

This is from a character study of the Mothman for that issue. Vile.

7 Lovefield Street

























Want to thank my good buddy Dan Berger for snapping this pic of where Leatherhead was created. I occupied the basement apartment on the right.





So when you're on your TMNT pilgrimage to western Massachusetts be sure to stop by 7 Lovefield St.in the beautiful town of Easthampton. It sets directly across from the abandoned Rat King factory. At least it did way back in the late 80's.




































In the Utrom tongue, the name Leatherhead translates as "Moment of cognizance, birth of understanding."

Mighty Mutanimals














What a treat to finally be able to add Jagwar to the Mutanimals toys line-up!
Courtesy of adam, here's a swell pic of our environmental heroes with his awesome customized Jagwar figure.
I love this group shot so much I just had to post it.

Visit The 5th Turtle for more pics!

Could Dreadmon be far behind?

Don Saves The Day





























Think about it, it was really Donatello that saved the day. Without him the turtles would have never made it past issue #1.
Donatello should be everyone's favorite TMNT.

Studio Space





















Our studio space at 320 Riverside Drive in Florence, Massachusetts. Steve's is in the corner. This is shortly after we all moved in. I can tell because there isn't that much stuff yet!

Threads





















Sneak peek at the up-coming back-up story that will be in Tales of the TMNT #50. This story is culled from my file of old, unused Tales ideas from back in the late 80's. What's old is new again.

Break Time


























Inked this for fun on my lunch hour today. Came out okay I guess. Just wanted to mix things up a little with inking styles and I love the drawing by Pete.

Morning Has Broken

























And it's going to be a hot and sultry 4th of July. Happy 4th everyone!

House Signing
























We even did house signings. Here's Kevin doing a turtle sketch for some lucky kids in 1989. We were on our way to Mid-Ohio Con.

SDCC is close and I found these old name tags with the TMNT buttons. I'm happy I saved these from the early years of Mirage. We did a lot of convention appearances and store signings in those happy carefree days!
When we weren't working we were traveling and meeting the fans!
