This week, we welcome back friend of the pod Penn Genthner to talk about our childhoods. By which we mean, of course, the TMNT. While we all loved the cartoon, all played with the action figures, and all LARPed around the playground, none of us had read the comic -- which with its gritty black and white art, retained a mystique promising strange and violent adventures. Perhaps a TMNT more suited for adults?

Did it deliver? Was the nostaliga strong enough to pull us through six volumes of childhood memories?
