Daredevil and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TMNT Team-Up

As some of you may be aware, the stories of both the Turtles and Matt Murdock, have an implied connection; Matt being the young man that knocks the blind man out of the way of the truck carrying ooze, which later blinds Matt and brings the turtles as we knew them to life. As a huge daredevil fan, I have always wanted to put this team-up on paper. Since the creators of The Turtles, Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, have admitted to being huge daredevil fans themselves, I thought I would mention a few other similarities to the two stories:

1. Ninja Clans - The HAND and The FOOT

2. Daredevil's Master is Stick - The Turtles Master is Splinter

3. Both Elektra and Raphael are both donned in red and use the Sai as their weapon

If you know of any others please let me know.

The reboot of the Turtles will be coming out soon and the movie rights to daredevil are back at marvel. IMO a crossover between these two is long overdue.
When I pitched the idea of this commission to Scott he was really excited about doing it. He came back at me with several great layouts that, needless to say, were very hard to choose from. Scott is absolutely amazing; he managed to get the front view of all the main characters, the perfect coordination of attacks, the foot soldier facing you (so you can see his clan on his forehead), etc. I especially like Michelangelo diving in the midst and grabbing Kingpin.

Anybody else up for this Team-Up?


I hope you guys enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed the process from beginning to end.

Scott, Thank you so much for such an unbelievable job on penciling and inking this GEM.
