It's been nearly forty years since Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird created the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Beginning life as a throwaway gag between aspiring comic artists, the Turtles quickly became an unexpected smash hit. This gave way to multiple animated series, numerous film adaptations, plenty of videogames, and a wave of action figures -- all keeping the spirit of Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo alive for generations of fans.
