TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES [Comic-Con@Home]: Shell-ebrating 30 Years!

Wise man say: “forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza.” It has been 30 years since the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film (and really, let’s be honest, the best one) and Comic Con@Home decided to bring us, what I’m sure they thought was a cool idea, the producer Kim Dawson …
