Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures Comic Eastman and Laird's 5th Print 1988 G/VG

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures was a comic book series published by Archie Comics from 1988 to 1995. Co-creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird provided the characters and initially the covers for the series, but the main creative control of the interior stories was quickly handed to other writers and artists. 

• Covers: Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird provided cover art for the initial issues of the series.
• Creative Handover: After the first few issues (specifically by issue #5 of the main series), Eastman and Laird handed over the writing and interior art duties to Mirage artists like Ryan Brown and Stephen Murphy.
• Original Characters and Direction: Under the new creative team, the comic shifted from adapting the 1987 animated series episodes to developing original storylines, which sometimes incorporated social and environmental themes.
• Separate Continuity: The Archie Comics series is set in a separate continuity from Eastman and Laird's original, darker, black-and-white comics published by Mirage Studios. The Adventures series was aimed at a younger audience, in line with the tone of the popular animated show it was initially based on.
