Archie, what the hell is this graphic design.

Mutant War Thog @continuousnoise.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Never thought about it before seeing this figure, but I think every time TMNT has done a fifth turtle thing, the fifth turtle is a girl (as long as we're not counting Slash or Tokka.)

A boxed action figure of April O'Neil is a ninja turtle from the Archie comics. She looks about the same as the other four turtles, but she has a white mask, white elbow and knee pads, white wristbands, and a belt with a capital "A" on it. Her weapon is a giant sword wrapped in white tape that kinda looks like a buster sword.

A promo image of Venus from TMNT The Next Mutation. She's slimmer than the other turtles with human-like breast cups on her yellow torso, a light blue mask with a long, braided tail, light blue shin guards, and a light blue belt with a capital "V" on the circular buckle. She's given a thumbs up with her other hand on her hip while standing in a messy warehouse.

The cover of the TMNT Jennika The Fifth Turtle trade paperback. It shows Jennika crouched with her shell partially toward us but looking over her shoulderbehind her. She has a yellow mask, a black hood, black fabric wrapped around her torso, black pants, and boxing tape wrapped around her shins and arms. She weilds a pair of four pronged claws and it looks as if she's just finished clawing the crap out of the wall in front of her.

When you just gotta discourse about an art you dislike to cause problems on purpose.

A panel from Silver Surfer issue 6 depicting a humanoid figure in a red and green bodysuit with a yellow gas mask stepping off of a futuristic space transport about the size of a sedan and approaching a nearly nude, prone humanoid figure with pale skin in a rocky environment against a blue and cloudy sky. The figure in the gas mask is saying, "cringe, you lowly, brainless swine!"

This YouTooz Zoro figure got him looking like Kamui Fire Emblem Echoes.

A YouTooz figure in its cube shaped box seen through a plastic window on the box. It portrays Zoro from one piece in his attire from, I believe, the first arc, a short sleeved, green, shirt folded on the chest like a kimono and black pants. The figure has a big head shaped like an inverted tear drop. He has short green hair like usual and bushy eyebrows, but uses the brands signature eye style, having them shaped like thick, black curved lines. He's also got a dot nose and a thin, black line for a mouth.

The key art of Kamui from Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows Of Valentia. He's wearing a drab green outfit with wide pants, shoes that pount upward at the tips, a tan sash, and brown and green flaps of fabric that are trailing behind his torso. His outfit seems to be meant to evoke the image of a ronin. He wears a brown head band with a silver piece of metal cover most of his forehead. His hair is black and short but shaggy, a longer lock emerging over the headband. He has light, near pale, skin, a thin head, a long, hawkish nose, and shaggy eyebrows. Like the Zoro figure, his mouth is pressed into a thin line, and his eyes are so narrowed they appear as black lines with an upward curve in the middle. He's crouched with his right foot forward facing the viewer, and his muscular right arm is reaching for a sword sheathed at his side in kind of an iaido stance.

Was looking up a list of primates, and look who they got in The Philippines.

A screenshot of the list of primates wikipedia page showing the entry for the Philippine Tarsier. It shows a picture of a small, short and brown furred monkey-like animal with huge brown eyes and long digits clinging to what looks like a piece of green bamboo. Above the picture the name "Carlito" is printed.

(Carlito is the genus name for the animal, named for the conservationist Carlito Pizarras. )

Cool spider I got to see whole playing board games this past weekend. Labeled graphic since I know I have at least one mutual who doesn't like spiders.

A close up of a beige and brown colored spider with a large abdomen at rest on its web at night. It has many short, rigid-looking hairs sprouted all around its body, including its legs. Its four four legs are fairly thick and have a red-brown hue in the first segment. I believe it's some kind of orb weaver.

The same spider slightly less zoomed in. A green lawn can be seen in the background through the web here. The poor spider appears to be missing most its rear-most left leg only having about half of the first segment of it left.

Geez, kitty, just can't stop yourself, huh? Keep the little dude away from any mutagen. We know where that would go.

The cover of the comic, "TMNT: Best Of Old Hob." The title is shown in blocky, yellow text at the top of the page with a lime green background for the whole cover. Old Hob, a brownish furred cat with yellow eyes who has been mutated to have human proportions, is shown facing forward on the cover in mostly flat colors. He's wearing a dark brown duster, a light brown shirt, and an eyepatch the same color as the background. He has a slight malicious smile.

New starter's final form looks cool.

A serial numbered Universus card of Michelangelo from TMNT. It has a silvery, grayscale color scheme other than Mikey's wristbands, elbow pads, knee pads, and mask which are all orange. Mikey is smiling widely while in a leaping pose with his right arm reared back, about to strike with his nunchaku. It is sleeved on a yellow stand that says "POKEMON" in black text on the base.

Don't think I've ever seen a TMNT novelization before.

The cover of a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin novel by Erik Burnham. The cover is black with the mutant turtle last ronin on the cover grimacing menacingly. The ronin is wearing a dark gray hood and a black mask over his eyes. His skin is pale green and his eyes are completely white. He's also got a katana and bo staff visible over his shoulders attached to his back.

Wonder if people got refunded if the subbed to Sonic Boom considering it only got 11 issues.

An ad page from Sonic Boom issue 1 showing Sonic, Tails, Amy, Knuckles, and Sticks viewed from above, and they're looking up at the viewer with sassy expressions, each having would I would describe as a shit eating grin. The page advertises a monthly subscription to the Sonic Boom comic with a mail in slip at the bottom of the page offering a 12 issue sub for $27.99 USD and a 24 issue sub for $47.99 USD. Presumably most folks would have just subbed online back when this was published though.

Big Direct leak: CD-i Zelda remakes with live action footage. Pictured: Chen Jianbin as Ganon.

A screenshot from Three Kingdoms (2010 series) showing the actor Chen Jianbin in late Han Dynasty period dress as the warlord Cao Cao. He's seen from the chest up. He is wearing an iron breast plate and red robes, and he has a big beard and mustache, but the beard has a weird squared off shape at the bottom because he cut off part of it to try to disguise himself. He is wearing some type of Guan crown with a pin through it on his head that keeps his hair tidy. His lips are pursed and he is speaking: "If the Ma boy doesn't die, I will not have peaceful days."

This of course references the famous, "Mah Boi" line uttered by King Harkinian in Link: The Faces of Evil.

Grabbed this for a few bucks from a back issue box because I was kinda shocked to see Power Girl in a DCAU JLU comic. I kinda assumed Galatea was meant to be the PG of that continuity. They don't get into her deal in this comic nor does she use Kryptonian specific powers, so maybe she's human.

One of my favorite silly things New Teen Titans offhandedly established. Tamaraneans like Starfire are evolved from cat people. Seen here when a villain uses a de-evolution weapon on the Titans.

A panel from New Teen Titans, volume 1, issue 15, showing Robin, Raven, and Starfire covered in bubbly, green goo with yellow fumes coming off of them. Robin and Raven have taken on the jutting brows and coarse facial features associated with neanderthals, looking clueless and confused, while Starfire takes on the nose shape and cleft upper lip of a cat while her red hair turns into a kind of lion's mane shape.

Off panel, the villain, General Immortus, bloviates, "--very soon their neanderthal madness will overwhelm them--and they will crush the metal one for us." The metal one in question being Robotman, formerly of the Doom Patrol.

Geez, this s/he her/his stuff is super awkwardly written. Since you could easily make this plural (Jericho is possessing Starfire,) I feel like this must've been written this way to be like, "whoa imagine being a man in a woman's body fellas."

Three panels arranged vertically from page 17 of Tales Of The Teen Titans issue 47. From top to bottom:

Panel 1: Starfire is shown at a medoum distance flying through a blazing fire in a Superman flying pose, her extremely long hair trailing behind her. The narration reads, "S/he rushes forward, picking up speed, yet as the heat engulfs him/her s/he panics...He may possess Koriand'r's body, but he does not possess her knowledge or experience..."

Panel 2: Still flyong through the flames, Starfire is viewed closer, her body taking up most of the panel now. The narration reads: "His/her heart thumps wildly...The heat is getting worse. His/her flesh sizzles..."

Panel 3: Zoomed in close on Starfire's pained face now, the narration reads: "S/he almost passes out, giving in to the terrible, painful heat and fire...Jericho panics. He almost forsakes Koriand'r's body to the flames. His/her throat burns as s/he gulps for air, his/her eyes shut tight and s/he pushes ahead..."

I forgot Usagi Yojimbo was introduced in Albedo Anthropomorphics, haha.

The cover of Albedo Anthropomorphics issue 2 from 1984. It is a mostly black page with the title of the comic, issue number, volume number (1 in this case,) and the $1.50 price at the top of the page in bold and blocky, white text. The human proportioned, white-furred, rabbit-ronin, Usagi Yojimbo stands viewed from the side, his head turned toward us but his eyes looking somewhere beyond us with a severe expression, seen in the opening left by a partially open, Japanese-style, sliding door. The door is black, with its windows a medium gray that we can see some of Usagi's left arm silhouetted in, and the opening Usagi is standing in is colored bright orange. Usagi is in a light blue kimono with the fictional Mifune crest, three circles in a triangle somewhat resembling a paw print, printed on the left breast and near the left cuff. In a blue sash around his waist, he carries two Japanese style swords, presumably a long sword and a shorter companion sword. Usagi has his left hand on the upper sheathe of the long sword, flicking the sword out of its sheathe with his thumb, clearly expecting trouble. His long rabbit ears are bound in a white strip of fabric, making him look like he has a topknot. In the lower left, at the bottom of the door, white text declares, "Introducing Usagi Yojimbo." The, "Usagi," text is rendered in a calligraphic style as if written using a brush.

It is in a a dimly lit, but homey looking room with reddish atmospheric lighting. It is standing next to a metal wire stand that is filled with green and pink cream topped pastries with cherries on top. A large yellow banner behind has the following written in messy red letters, "yor mi frend," (you're my friend.)

Peaked at the personal growth rates in FE Engage, and I knew there was something screwy with Boucheron's strength and Clanne's Magic.

A partial screenshot of a table showing personal percentile growth rates for Fire Emblem Engage characters. It shows the following:

Alear has a 60% HP growth, 35% strength growth, and a 20% magic growth.
Vander has a 60% HP growth, 25% strength growth, and a 10% magic growth.
Clanne has a 40% HP growth, 35% strength growth, and a 10% magic growth.
Framme has a 55% HP growth, 30% strength growth, and a 25% magic growth.
Alfred has a 65% HP growth, 40% strength growth, and a 5% magic growth.
Etie has a 45% HP growth, 40% strength growth, and a 0% magic growth.
Boucheron has a 85% HP growth, 20% strength growth, and a 0% magic growth.

Clanne's magic growth is weirdly low considering he starts as a mage and has a starting strength of 1.
Boucheron's strength growth being 20% means that his good starting strength becomes less impressive as the game progresses since he gets a lot fewer boosts than would be expected for a normally strength focused class.

Now that we're getting a Godzilla X Sonic comic, I think it's time to bring this freak back.

A full page illustration from Sonic Super Special #12. It shows a mutated Bunnie Rabbot, grown to giant size, smashing through a futuristic, human populated, city with a furious expression as she regards the fleeing people beneath her while casually pushing skyscrapers to her sides away with clawed hands. Bunnie is a yellow furred, anthropomorphic, rabbit with long, floppy ears, a fluffy tuft of hair on the top of her head that ends in a spit curl, covering her forehead, and dark purple eyeshadow on both eyelids. Being a cyborg, she has a chrome, robotic left arm that ends in a large cylindrical cuff with a clawed hand coming out of it, and a robotic lower torso and legs, withmuscular looking calves and feet that end in curved, sharp claws. Different from usual, her open mouth shows too many teeth sharpened down to points, glowing red irises inside her green eyes, and gnarled fingers that end in sharp claws. She also has a long, thick tail with spines on the back of it meant to invoke Godzilla's image. Dust plumes above her and text at the top of the page reads, "Zone Wars: Giant Robotno Chapter 2. Run--run for your lives! It's--it's Rabbotzilla!!!"

You know what? Fuck you *desaturates your Darumaka*

A screenshot of the Pokemon Darumaka. Description from Bulbapedia: "Darumaka is a round, red Pokémon with short arms and legs and a stubby tail. It has an orange face and curly yellow eyebrows. It has three yellow ovals on its abdomen and a curvy yellow line on its back. Its hands and feet are orange with three digits each."

Darumaka has two round eyes with tiny irises and white sclera. It's smiling wildly while standing on one foot, in the middle of a little jig.

A screenshot of the shiny form of Darumaka. It looks the same as the previous screenshot but, other than its eyes and mouth, all the colors on its body are about 50% more pale.

It's just like playing May in regular Guilty Gear. Or so I've heard.

Four copies of the Guilty Gear Strive Universus card, "Mr. Dolphin." It shows May in her usual big orange pirate hat and orange hoodie summoning a cartoony, azure dolphin with pink blush circles on its cheeks. This is happening with her big red air ship in the background.

Below the art in an orange textbox, the card effect reads, "Blitz: This attack gets +1 damage for each Ally attack in your card pool." Mr. Dolphin is an Ally attack itself, so the implication is you're meant to play multiple copies of this card consecutively to power up the next one similarly to how some Strive players spam Tostugeki in the fighting game. Fittingly, the quote at the bottom of the description is:

"Totsugeki!"
-May

I don't know sign language, but supposedly Joey is saying he's gay here with the double chin tap gesture.

A page from Convergence: Teen Titans showing Jericho, a pale skinned man with reddish-blonde hair and mutton chops, and Kole, a pale skinned woman with short red hair and a diamond shaped stone in the center of her forehead, standing in fron of an easel with a painting on it in a large room. Jericho is wearing his usual costume, a roomy long sleeved white shirt with a deepy purple tunic on top of it with tight blue pants, purple boots with gold cuffs, and a blue sash around his shoulders with a pair of gold fasteners near both shoulders. Kole is wearing a short blue dress that ends high up on her thighs, and a short translucent blue cape that's fastened to her by a wide, scaled, azure collar that extends to her shoulders, and gold and black high heeled boots that go nearly to her knees.

Panel 1: Jericho and Kole touch the painting and luminous, crystalline tree sprouts from the canvas, extending beyond the bounds of the canvas itself.

Panel 2: Jericho, with downcast eyes and an uncertain expression, touches his right pointer finger and thumb to his chin, making a U shape.

Panel 3: Kole turns to Jericho and says, "I know...I always should have...And I know how hard it was for you. Your parents...who they are...Both warriors. Fighters. Your brother too."

Panel 4: Kole embraces Jericho around his waist. Jericho's arms are still at his sides as if he was not expecting the hug. Kole continues, "And you...you're an artist. And you're so good. Maybe they couldn't understand what they were putting you through. But I do."

Panel 5: Jericho hugs Kole back, a tear rolling down his cheek as he smiles, and Kole leans her head into his chest, beaming. Kole says, "And I still love you...And you never have to hide from me."

Panel 6: The pair are viewed from the opposite angle now, showing a purple couch and a guitar leaning against the wall. The other Titans are seen through a doorway. Kole says, "Or them."

I've mentioned this before, but I think some resellers must think First Hunt is the full game and not a demo cart that came with early DSes. The fact that the label doesn't even mention First Hunt here makes me think I'm right.

A Metroid Prime Hunters [First Hunt] cartridge encased in plastic inside a glass case at a Gamestop. It's priced at $27.99, a ridiculous asking price for a common demo cart.

Key thing to remember when writing Casey Jones: he doesn't read.

A panel from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Casey Jones issue 4. It shows Casey's hand in a fingerless, black, glove holding a green-covered and weathered copy of the book The Adventures Of Pinocchio by C. Collodi. A faded illustration of the puppet boy waving at the viewer is above the book's title.

Casey is thinking, "Oh, dope! When did they make a book of this?"

Reminds of this Bob Kane story from Mark Evanier's blog, haha. www.newsfromme.com/2021/12/21/a...

A screenshot of Mark Evanier's linked blog post showing the text:

After years of drawing roughly the way Kane might have drawn the comics himself since 1953, Moldoff felt lost. It was like "Draw it like Bob Kane but if Bob was drawing in a style he never drew in" and Moldoff hated the job. For one thing, it took longer to pencil a page that way but no raise in pay accompanied the new marching orders. For another, Schwartz asked for way more redraws than Schiff had ever demanded on the "old look" pages. He asked Kane and then Shelly had to do them…with at least one famous exception which Julie Schwartz described once on a panel I hosted at Comic-Con…

One time when Bob Kane dropped off pages, I asked him for a quick revision on one panel. Batman was punching someone and I wanted it to be a Marvel-style punch with a big fist coming right out at the reader. Bob said, "Okay, I'll take the page home and fix it and get it back to you tomorrow." By now, I knew he was going to have some assistant redo it so I decided to have a little fun with him. I said, "No, I need to send this story off to the letterer right away. Just sit down at a drawing table down the hall and redo the panel. He was turning pale. He said, "No, I need my own drawing table and my own art supplies to work." I said, "Come on. It's just one fist. The great Bob Kane should be able to knock that out in two minutes."

I kept after him until he finally agreed to do it. He took the page and went off down the hall to where there were some drawing tables for artists to work at. It took a half-hour or so but he finally came back with the page and the fist was perfect. He did a real good job. I was impressed until later, I found out what happened. He sat there for twenty minutes, erasing and redrawing, erasing and redrawing. Finally, he paid Murphy Anderson ten bucks to redraw it for him.

She's at her school desk with an English test in front of her. She's looking at a, "NO NO" branded eraser in her hand that she was just loaned by her friend Mio. She already has her own "NO NO" eraser on her desk.

Wow, they're just now getting around to putting Garcia in FE Heroes? Been years since I played regularly, but I would've figured they'd have had to have made everyone from the mainline games playable at this point. Art looks really good though. Kinda shocked Dozla got a unit before him.

New art of Garcia from Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones for Fire Emblem Heroes. He's in his standard outfit, consisting of a dark blue, leather chest plate with shoulder straps to keep it on, olive green and dark green two tone pants, light brown combat boots with dark brown soles, a reddish brown belt around his waist as well as another belt connected to that one that supports a leather pouch at his side, and a red sash tied around his hips with the knot and two flowing loose bits of fabric on his left side.

Garcia himself is very muscular and lean with a broad face, large nose, small and dark eyes, a wide smile, thick eyebrows, a beard that follows the curve of his jaw and ends in a small point at his chin, and charcoal colored hair, trimmed short a neatly combed back while still looking like it has some volume. Two stray locks of hair hang down over his forehead, just above his eyes.

He's standing straight with his legs slightly apart and his lead foot turned toward the viewer in a stance that seems to communicate he's ready for action. His right hand is balled into a fist and held against his waist, and his left arm is bent downward slightly with his first pointed mostly at the viewer. He's viewed at a 3/4 angle with only his left ear visible from this angle while still being able to see the rest of his face.

Unfortunately, the artist for this piece is not yet publicly known to the best of my knowledge, but they are usually credited in Fire Emblem Heroes itself.

Reading New Teen Titans issue 2, and I never considered that, "humans only use 10% of their brain," myth might come up in something from the '80s. Always kind of assumed it started when I was growing up. Would be really funny if this was just some cape comics thing that got spread around as real.

Two panels from New Teen Titans volume 1, issue 2.

In the first panel, Grant Wilson, a pale skinned, muscular, blond man with chin length hair lies on an operating table while in an orange shirt. A person in a blue hazmat suit is lecturing him, "Then we shall do so once again! Human beings only use 1/10th of their brain power capacity. We have learned that the Terminator increased his capacity to 90%!"

The second panel shows a close up of the hazmat suit's mask while the wearer continues, "We are going to increase your capacity to 100% Just imagine the power at your disposal when you are finally ready to destroy the New Titans!"

A screenshot of Emblem Ike from Fire Emblem Engage floating in the main Somniel square. A clear, blue sky with only a few clouds is in the background, and just behind Ike can be seen the tailor's store front with its blue-shingled roof, and behind that is a swimming pool with pool chairs and end tables beneath a blue rood held up by white columns.

Ike is in his Radiant Dawn Costume with a dark green bandana around his forehead, a read cape clasped around his right shoulder, a jagged blue and yellow pauldron on his left shoulder, a brown and blue sleeveless shirt, and a leathery brown shoulder pad on his left shoulder of the kind archers tend to wear. A ghostly light blue aura surrounds him.

Ike is saying in response to Lapis asking if he's ever had bear meat, "Yeah! Bear meat tastes great! We were hired to hunt them often, so I used to eat a lot of it."

It definitely feels like someone on the dev team wanted to put a trans character into the game. Presumably "transitioning" to a flier class, having a pretty non-gender conforming style, and nearly having a trans flag as his color scheme implies a lot the game never gets into.

A screenshot of Rosado from Fire Emblem Engage from the hips up. Rosado is thin, wears a tight, black top with a diamond shaped opening just below the neck as well as silver plates of armor on his arms and hips, and he has thigh-length, light blue hair with pink streaks through it that end in ringlets. He also sports a pair of hair buns on the top of his head, swirled through with blue and pink, that are shaped like little horns as well as a big pink bow and the back of his head. He has blue eyes with pink highlights, thin eyebrows and overall soft facial features with pale skin. He's smiling cutely with his hands clasped together by his face like he just saw something adorable.

I don't get this gag. How is Captain Kintsugi any harder than, say, Captain America to pronounce. If it's just to show the kid's awkward growing into superhero-dom, it's and odd way to do it.

A panel from an Amazing Spider-Man comic where Spidey is handing a round, silver and gold shield back to a costumed, teenage hero in a silver and gold padded jumpsuit, a silver headband, orange visor-style glasses, and black shoulder length hair. The silver and gold clad kid looks dejected and is saying to Spidey, "Kintsugi, sir. It was Captain Kintsugi the first time we met, but people kept stumbling over it so... Still a work in progress."
