Plot
Distinctly different from the grim, violent, and dark MIRAGE comics from which the Turtles originated, this version of the franchise has remained the longest running, and most memorable, version of all. Four turtles fall into the sewers and are befriended by Hamato Yoshi a Japanese man sent to New York who was forced to live in the sewers. One day he sees a strange green glow which transforms the four turtles into human-like creatures. Hamato (now Master Splinter) changes into a giant rat from the green glow and teaches the turtles the skills of the ninja as they team up with Channel 6 news reporter April O'Neil to battle against Yoshi's arch enemy Shredder and Krang, an alien warlord from Dimension X.Cast

Return of the Shredder
Just when the Turtles believe themselves rid of Shredder, tin-grin is able to persuade Krang to return him to earth.

Using the trans-dimensional portal to return, Shredder quickly reunites with Baxter Stockman, and recruits a local ninja school to disguise themselves as the half-shelled heroes so as to keep them busy long enough for him to kidnap Splinter.

The green machine succeed in taking out the Faux turtles and, following clues, are lured to Shredder's lair, after a decisive battle with Baxter's Rat-catcher, the ninjas are able to rescue splinter, but shredder and his scientist sidekick escape to fight another day..Writer: Fred Wolf / Christy Marx

The Incredible Shrinking Turtles
While practicing their martial arts in Central Park, the Turtles witness an alien spaceship crash into a small pond. The Turtles dive in and rescue the pilot, and he warns them that they must find the "Three Fragments of the Eye of Zarnof" - three peices of his space ship. The alien tells the Turtles that when the three pieces are joined together, they will bestow power unknown to any earthling. He gives them a Crystal Converger to help them locate the ""Three Fragments"" before they fall into the wrong hands. And then he vaporizes. But not before Shredder has overheard and seen all of the above. Shredder, once again, contacts Krang for reinforcements, but Krang reminds him that he will get no help from the Foot Soldiers until he can deliver the Turtles on a platter before him.Writer: Fred Wolf / Larry Parr

It Came From Beneath The Sewers
While the Turtles and April O'Neil scour the city for the Second Fragment of the Eye of Zarnov, Shredder sheepishly reports to Krang that he has lost the First Fragment and needs Krang's help. Krang agrees and, with his hi-tech equipment, locates the Fragment just outside the city near where a traveling carnival show has pitched their tents. Meanwhile, the Crystal Converger has led the Turtles and April to the same carnival. But before they can locate the Fragment, it is found by two small boys. While April unsuccessfully tries to get them to part with it for three dollars, the Turtles are mistaken for performers and find themselves entertaining an appreciative audience. When April finds the Turtles they're in an effort to raise more money to purchase the Fragment, but by then Shredder stumbles upon the boys and simply steals it.Writer: Fred Wolf / Larry Parr

The Mean Machines
After the batteries died in the alien crystal converger, Donatello, using spared circuits from the space ship, builds a tracking device to help locate the second fragment of the Eye of Zarnov. On the streets, the tracking device picks up the signal and leads the Turtles to a branch of a bank where a hold-up has just occurred. The Turtles thwart the would-be bank robbers, while Shredder and Baxter Stockman, who had followed the Turtles, locate the second fragment and return to Shredder's secret hideout. Shredder immediately contacts Krang and tells him of his recent acquisition and of his belief that if he were to hook up the second fragment to a computer, it will give them unlimited power. Krang is doubtful of Shredder's ability to succeed.Writer: Fred Wolf / Michael Reaves

Enter: The Fly
Shredder attempts to use the world trade center in an experiment, but the failure of Baxter's essential new device, plus the interference of those heroes in a half shell, prevent the villain's plot from succeeding.
