Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are back. New animated adventures will start Saturday mornings exclusively on premiering Saturday February 8. According to Fox, the new version sets itself apart from the
past by staying close to the original comic books' strong graphics and rich stories; combining serious “butt-kicking ninja action and irreverent humor.” TMNT was launched in 1984 as a 40-page comic
book created by Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman. From the late 1980s through the early 1990s, kids entertainment was dominated by the original animated adventures of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
(TMNT). Now, Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo and Donatello return to television -- backed by the same team that turned TMNT into a mega-hit.
