  3. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3 Mutant Nightmare with Pierce Lydon (Spawnography)

    By 2005, Konami had made three TMNT beat-em-ups based on the 2003 animated series, which is the kind of commitment usually reserved for tax filings or long-term relationships. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: Mutant Nightmare landed that November on GameCube, PS2, Xbox, and Nintendo DS as the trilogy’s closer, and Konami sent it off in style by giving it the series’ first E10+ rating, as if four years of shell-based violence had finally crossed some invisible threshold of Too Much.

    The game loosely adapts the show’s third season across four “Episodes,” which means the Triceratons invade Earth, Agent Bishop kidnaps Splinter for reasons that presumably made sense to somebody in a government facility somewhere, and Shredder shows back up to remind everyone that retirement isn’t really a thing that happens to ninja warlords. Along the way you can pour experience points into skill scrolls, transform into a Dino Turtle or an Ultimate Turtle depending on the mood, and, if you clear the first Episode, unlock a modified version of the 1991 arcade classic Turtles in Time, which is Konami’s way of saying “here’s the good one, in case this one doesn’t land.”

    Joining me to sort the Triceratons from the Foot Ninjas is Pierce Lydon of Spawnography, the podcast where he and George Marston work through Todd McFarlane’s entire Spawn mythology one hellish arc at a time. Pierce has already survived one trip through the Play Comics gauntlet with me on Spawn in the Demon’s Hand, so they know exactly what they signed up for this time: showing up, being extremely knowledgeable, and getting talked into yet another licensed beat-em-up nobody asked for.

    So grab a ninja scroll, pick a turtle, any turtle, and let’s find out whether Mutant Nightmare sent Konami’s turtle trilogy out on a high note, or whether the Triceratons should’ve just stayed home.

    Learn such things as:

    • When is it appropriate to make a game without the most iconic villains?
    • How much can you cram into a game when you know it’s your last one?
    • What magical things can you find at your public library?
    • And so much more!

    You can find Spawnography on BlueSky, and Instagram, and of course those Apple Podcast, YouTube, and Spotify places. Or you can find Pierce as a wonderful human on Instragram @lapsed.punk.

    If you want to hear Chris talk with Karrington Martin about the lessons we learned from children’s media and how crazy it is that we’re supposed to just forget about that now that we’re adults, then Sugar, Spite, and Everything is Fine is probably something you should check out.

    A big thanks to Glitterjaw Presents and Byrds Eye View Comics for the promos today.

    Intro/Outro Music by Backing Track, who knows the difference between ooze, slime, and muck. But doesn’t want to tell us what the difference is.

    ¿Sabían que el personaje de Sabrina la bruja adolescente nació originalmente en las páginas de los cómics en el año 1962 con una personalidad sumamente maliciosa y egoísta?

    Décadas antes del estreno de la popular serie de televisión de acción real en 1996, el guionista George Gladir y el dibujante Dan DeCarlo crearon a Sabrina Victoria Spellman para la editorial Archie Comics. Su primera aparición ocurrió específicamente en el número 22 de la revista Archie's Madhouse, publicada el 1 de octubre de 1962. En estas historietas primigenias de la Edad de Plata, la joven no poseía el carácter bondadoso ni la brújula moral que caracterizó a la adaptación televisiva, pues utilizaba activamente sus encantamientos mágicos para amarrar hombres de forma caprichosa, realizar venganzas personales y atormentar a las alumnas de la secundaria que le desagradaban. Otra discrepancia notable con la famosa producción de los años noventa radica en la mascota de la familia, el gato Salem Saberhagen; en la obra impresa original de esos años, Salem era retratado simplemente como un felino ordinario de color naranja que carecía por completo de la capacidad de hablar y no poseía el trasfondo histórico de ser un antiguo hechicero castigado por el Consejo de Brujas.
