Blast from the Past #355: Pencil drawing for Archie TMNT Adventures #35 cover

This may get confusing, but I think that I will continue to number both TMNT-related "BftP" material and non-TMNT-related "BftP" material in the same sequence. Since I split my original blog, "palbog", into two entities -- one devoted to TMNT stuff and the other to everything else that I want to show and tell -- it has been a little hard to keep track of what goes where. But I think with practice it will work out just fine.

One of the odd things which seems to have happened is that I have lost the ability to search this blog, which I have used in the past to avoid as much as possible the embarrassing happenstance of posting the same thing twice (something I have done several times in the past). I'm not sure why that search function is not working -- it may be some arcane cyber-artifact of the blog transfer process -- but I did discover that I can search from the "Edit" page. It's a little clunkier, but seems to work.

In any event, I did do a search to see if I had posted this piece before, and it appears I had not. I suppose I could be wrong... I hope not. Please feel free to let me know if I messed up!



This is my pencil drawing for the cover of issue #35 of the Archie Comics "TMNT Adventures" comic book. I am pretty sure that Ryan Brown inked this one, as he did many of my Archie TMNT covers. -- PL

  1. This drawing holds sigficiance to me. The issue before (#34) where they are all falling from a mountainous cliff was my verry first comic as a reward for learning how to read. This one was the very first I ever bought myself.

    I know Ryan and Steve mainly handled TMNTA,but did you have any involvement with the plots?

    Cool!

    "I know Ryan and Steve mainly handled TMNTA,but did you have any involvement with the plots?"

    I don't know if Ryan did anything other than ink some of the art in those books (including a bunch of my covers), but as far as I can recall, I did not have much, if anything, to do with the plotting. I may have discussed a few plot points with Murph, but I honestly cannot remember. -- PL

  3. I loved this series (obviously as I have all 72 issues).
