I was heading out to do some grocery shopping this afternoon when I decided to do a quick check of email on my phone. I was not expecting it, but one of the messages was from the local printer who was handling the printing of TMNT #32. He said the books were all printed, and I could come and pick them up.

Which I did. And here they are.

..

NT Volume 4, #31 can still be seen on this blog at the following URL: **http://peterlairdstmntblog.blogspot.com/2010/10/tmnt-volume-4-31.html

There is a very good chance that #31 will see a physical printing, but it probably won’t be for a few months. .. ..

I think the plan is for Shellback to have exclusive sales for a short time, then the remainder of the copies will go on sale via the ***Mirage website. — PL

GRUNTS #1 :: “THE LESSON” – A TALE OF THE TRICERATON MARINES (( 1987 ))

GRUNTS #1 :: "THE LESSON" - A TALE OF THE TRICERATON MARINES pg.1 (( 1987 ))

☣ ☣

–>> In honour of Veteran’s Day & Week, i’ve uploaded from GRUNTS #1 :: “THE LESSON” – A TALE OF THE TRICERATON MARINES (( 1987 )) .. and ONLY that single, classic story from Mirage’s ’87 anthropomorphic war-anthology one-shot.

Pencils/ script / story by Peter Laird

Inks by Ryan Brown

Letters by Steve Lavigne

☣ ☣

One of my all-time favourite Peter Laird side-stories. ::

GRUNTS #1 :: "THE LESSON" - A TALE OF THE TRICERATON MARINES pg.1 (( 1987 )) ** For your convenience in reading, i’ve given the entire story it’s very own set on the t2z – flickr. **

During a rest break from combat in the dirty barracks within the ZOGNEB ARZAK SYSTEM the overzealous ZAD and a small band of his fellow, young Triceraton Marines are gloating about their strength & might and the weakness of their mammalian enemies.

Ol’ Sergeant Zule soon puts a stop to the brave but naive bands’ smugness with a tale about when he was young Triceraton Marine and a vicious encounter & the hard lesson learned from facing an enemy mammalian URSID.

–>> Tokka tries to keep personal projects posted on GGM  to a minimum ( but he also swore he’d stop talkin’ about himself in the 3rd person years ago as well ), but you TMNT fan-folks may appreciate this more than most.

tOkKustom :: TMNT: C.A.W. 20th Anniversary Hoody ii

This custom hoodie was made to celebrate the 20th anniversary  of one o’ Mirage Studio’s most popular story arcs in TMNT history; and the final one that put an end to the original Volume one of the Mirage Turtles FOREVER : “City at WAR“.

tOkKustom :: TMNT: C.A.W. 20th Anniversary Hoody v

Ripped from an old t-shirt .. the classic “C.A.W.” logo features on the front, and one the back the iconic Eastman & Laird image a vicious Shredder Elite choking the life out of one of the warring Foot Soldiers. One of the most memorable panels from TMNT v.1 #50.

The Hoodie goes up a tad small when the hood is actually pulled up over my noggin, but it’s not to bad. “Blood”,”ooze” , street grime & spray, Three-toed dragon symbol stencil, and some very worn battle-wrapping around the arms pay a small nod to the Shredder Elite Guards themselves.
