I remember it distinctly, the name "Mutanimals" just hit me one day, out of the blue, and I decided to develop a concept around this ( what I thought was a catchy) portmanteau. The premise would be simple, a mutant animal group whose mission it was to save the planet from mankind. I then set about the task of picking the team members and designing the logo at which time I added the "Mighty". Upon completion and with these in hand I then ran the whole thing by Murph who responded with whole-hearted, enthusiastic gusto. And while Murph thought the team was strong he suggested adding two more members. Jagwar was the first of the two with Murph creating him as a sort of a lord of the rainforest. I suggested a tasmanian wolf which Murph christened "Dreadmon".
With all our ducks in a row now, we then began to weave the story of the mighty mutanimals into the rich, resplendent tapestry of the TMNT Adventures title.

Ryan, What will the line up be for this book your working on?
So far, it sounds kick ass.
I'm definetly going to pick it up when comes availible.
Any possibility of a TMNT cross over down the line?
Gotta love it. That's some awesome gator art. I wonder who's going to win? I think I'll side with Nether-dead. :)
Cool story about the formation of the Mighty Mutanimals. I always assumed they came about because of the different characters that appeared throughout the TMNTA. Didn't realize that you purposely weaved some of these characters in there to form the MM further down the road. Nice work.
hell ya^^ this looks awsome
i should draw one of mondo gecko (phoenix) vs Dark Phoenix Mondo gecko.
btw...
still workin on my comic...
its starting to look good
i wonder what dark mondo would look like:)
and oh ya.....

Awesome drawing!
Hi LN,
The exact line up has yet to be determined but right now
I'm concentrating on seven of my old character designs as definite possibilities.
i cannot wait to see it^^
as for my comic it will be ready hopefully by the end of this year
im taking a lot of patience and sweet time to get this comic just right....
i cannot wait to see what the new chars are gonna do.. since this comic your making is also unofficial. perhaps we can combine story lines.. since both of these are sort of fan comics anyway^^
