TMNT Just Turned 2 Beloved Animated Characters into Pure Nightmare Fuel

Warning! This article contains spoilers for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #143 A number of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fans were introduced to it through the classic ‘90s Saturday Morning Cartoon, where they didn’t just meet the heroic Turtles themselves, but also the wacky characters they’d encounter with every adventure. Among them were fun, toyetic mutants like Bebop, Rocksteady, and Leatherhead, but there were also more obscure mutants who the Turtles had to face-off with – mutants like Groundchuck and Dirtbag. Now, Groundchuck and Dirtbag have been adapted into the current continuity of TMNT comics, and these once beloved animated characters have become pure nightmare fuel.
