Episode 2
Saturday, 28 March, 2026
Shellheads, this week we’re diving deeper into the weird, unfinished, and wildly ambitious era of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles history—Mirage Volume 4, issues #5–8.In this episode of Ninja Turtle Nerds, we break down the escalating tension in Donatello’s solo arc as he continues navigating a bizarre future filled with sentient tech, fractured timelines, and moral gray areas that feel way heavier than your average sewer adventure. Meanwhile, Michelangelo’s storyline keeps twisting into unexpected territory, blending introspection with some truly offbeat TMNT storytelling that only this era could deliver.We talk about Peter Laird’s evolving tone during this run, the experimental pacing, and how these issues start to hint at bigger, unfinished ideas that never fully pay off—but are still fascinating to explore. Is this peak Mirage weirdness, or a glimpse at what could have been the boldest TMNT saga ever?Grab a slice, settle in, and join us as we dissect one of the strangest chapters in Turtle history.
