Jab’s Reviews: TMNT (Pizzaface, The Mutagen Man & Muckman)

Pizzaface – Shredder’s crazed culinary creator – had a plan to become the most powerful pizza chef ever. So he zapped himself in his Retro mutagen oven, hoping the energy would bake him with badness.

Jab’s Reviews: TMNT (Rocksteady & Bebop)

ROCKSTEADY & BEBOP:-Among the most iconic “Idiotic Henchmen” in TV history, Rocksteady & Bebop started life as a pair of goons in a vicious street gang that were sent to assault reporter April O’Neil, who was investigating the Foot Clan’s activities.
