This is an interest book for TMNT fans, but I wish it had more information on the development of the turtles and their history. The book focuses mostly on the comics and Eastman's sketches. It has early drafts of the characters. In that sense, it isn't really an autobiography at all, but rather more like a scrapbook. Fans of the 1987 cartoons will be sorely disappointed. I hope someday Eastman and Laird come out with a definitive memoir. This book is great for fans of the comics, but isn't the memoir ... Read More

Great art book that chronicles the character design, thumbnail sketches, prelmins, pencils and inking for the TMNT issues that Eastman and Laird worked on together. You won't find any of this elsewhere short of owning all the original artwork, and even then you won't find the prelims and notes. A must have for fans of the comic and aspiring indie comic artists. I believe there is at least one treatment that documents the process of how some of the stories were generated, but the emphasis is really on ... Read More

I've been a rabid nut of the Turtles since I got my mitts on the Eastman & Laird comics in the 80's, so all this time later I couldn't believe my luck when I came across this book on Amazon. Bought it immediately and have been drooling over it ever since it arrived!

This book is a great book. Thanks to my wonderful girlfriend, and her choice of getting it for me. All in all, it's a very interesting book, the only complaint I have for it is that it should have a little more actual context. In other words, more words. I didn't like the fact that after a few chapters it gets kind of repetative because of the lack of reading, if your into just the comic book sketches then this is it for you. If you want some more depth to the actual writing, then you probably won't be fully ... Read More

It's been a longtime in the waiting but it's finally here. A massive HC compilation into the making of one of the biggest indie blockbusters in the comic book genre. Co creator Kevin Eastman shed's light on the making of the 1st dozen issues or so from the 1st TMNT series. Included are sketches, doodles, notes, etc. Hopefully Peter Laird decide's to put out his own art book too at some point down the road along with all of Mirage Studios' great works. 'nuff said!
