TalesTMNTVol1_int_TalesTMNT 10/29/12 4:48 PM Page 2 one of my favorite things about doing the tales of the teenage mutant ninja turtles series is that it came from the same warm and fuzzy place as the original seriesa deep-down desire to tell the kinds of comic stories we would like to read. the tales experience, however, was much cooler because not only did we create the characters, we got to work with other artists whose talent we admired. by the time 1987 rolled around, the tmntS were barely four years old, and although we were chest-deep in conversations with toy companies and tv companies, tales of the tmnt was still nothing more than a pipe dream. besides, peter laird and i had the full-time job of running our publishing company, mirage studios, and were still trying to pull off writing and drawing six issues per year of the original series. everything was a challenge. we only had a few part-time employees (who knew as little about publishing as we did), so we all wore lots of different hats and made the best of it as we slogged our way through finishing, printing, and distributing each oversized issue. mirage fans were used to seeing big stories for their $1.50; the first bunch of is- sues averaged 36 to 40 pagestmnt issue #8 was 45 pages! but that was what we wanted to dogive the readers stories they could sink their teeth into! although we did our best, we were starting to get a lot of letters from fans complaining about having to wait so long for the next chapter. after we got past the shock of even having so many awesome fans waiting for the next chapter, peter and i got the idea of harnessing the talents of new friends we'd made at comic conventions to create a second tmnt series that would alternate with the original series. we would stay heavily involved, but these stories could be one-shots, out of the regular continuity, and we'd have a monthly schedule at last. woo! woo! which brings me to my second favorite thing about creating the tales seriesworking with the guys who brought it to life! guys like jim lawson, ryan brown, steve lavigne, and dan berger were part of the first string team, and they brought it all to the table. peter and i were already fans of their own comics, and the more wed been talking with these guys about what we were doing in the tmnt universe, the more each conversation would come around to: "if i did a tmnt story, i would do this" so we gave it the thumbs up, and tales of the teenage mutant ninja turtles launched in 1987. last but not at all least (not by a long shot!), my third favorite thing about the tales series was the new characters we developed with the creative teams! some were cre- ated solo, some as a group effort, but all of them are so cool. in this first collection alone you'll see first appearances of classic tmnt universe anti-heroes like "nobody" and "rat king"creations that also went well beyond the comic series to television and the toy aisles. to me, the launch of tales was very similar to the original series' beginnings, a chaotic storm of: perfect timing, incredible fans, talented friends, and a whole lot of fun! i sincerely hope you enjoy reading these againor for the very first time in beautiful all-new color! COWABUNGA indeed! kevin eastman london 2012 AN INTRODUCTION TO TALES OF THE TMNT TalesTMNTVol1_int_TalesTMNT 10/29/12 4:32 PM Page 3 TalesTMNTVol1_int_TalesTMNT 10/29/12 4:32 PM Page 4 TalesTMNTVol1_int_TalesTMNT 10/29/12 4:32 PM Page 5 TalesTMNTVol1_int_TalesTMNT 10/29/12 4:32 PM Page 6 TalesTMNTVol1_int_TalesTMNT 10/29/12 4:32 PM Page 7 TalesTMNTVol1_int_TalesTMNT 10/29/12 4:32 PM Page 8 TalesTMNTVol1_int_TalesTMNT 10/29/12 4:32 PM Page 9 TalesTMNTVol1_int_TalesTMNT 10/29/12 4:32 PM Page 10 TalesTMNTVol1_int_TalesTMNT 10/29/12 4:32 PM Page 11 TalesTMNTVol1_int_TalesTMNT 10/29/12 4:33 PM Page 12
