" it is tremendous. Everything is covered, from the first Turtle drawing to the upcoming blockbuster film, via toys, TV shows and Vanilla Ice's Ninja Rap. Full of interviews, the book is a particularly useful tool in finding out the stories behind some of the lesser known chapters of TMNT history. Perhaps most exciting, it features lots of leaflets and press releases and such stuck onto the pages, like a demented scrapbooker has been enhancing stock in the warehouse. This book is must have for Ninja Turtles fans, or for people who like things that are brilliant. Just don't expect me to lend you mine." -- Den of Geek what makes this book truly great is the way Farago''s writing immerses you in this franchise''s history. You can tell he had a more than extensive interview with all of the talent and guides us through every era in an engaging fashion Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Ultimate Visual History is a must buy if you''re a big fan of the heroes in a half shell. Even if you think you know plenty about the franchise''s history, this is still an engrossing read that''ll shed so much more light on its story and the constant supply of artwork and inserts is thoroughly entertaining. It''s a very well-made collection that''s full of treats and the trip down memory lane kept this TMNT fan smiling virtually the entire time. If you love TMNT, I strongly recommend adding this to your collection." -- Comic Vine almost a museum on the printed page. Farago puts together an impressive packa≥ even the text shows enthusiasm for the subject and appreciation for their creators and stewards." -- Red Headed Mule Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Ultimate Visual History a gorgeously detailed coffee table book written by San Francisco's Cartoon Art Museum curator Andrew Farago, is exactly what the title promises. It explores, across some 192 pages, everything a fan could possibly want to know about Michelangelo, Donatello, Leonardo and Raphael If you're a series fan, an armchair comic book historian or simply a geek looking for a coffee table book to rival the famed Transformers Vault in both overall comprehension and phenomenal pack-ins, then pick up your copy today." -- GeekDad Any fan of the turtles, of any iteration, are going to love this book." -- Nerds in Hell "Bottom line is, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Ultimate Visual History is a must have and companion guide for any TMNT fan." -- Alien Bee such a well written and expertly laid out book that it would be hard to imagine a fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles not wanting to pick up a copy of the book." -- BioGamerGirl This is a Ninja Turtle Bible...It's beautiful, it's well-constructed, it's glossy." — IGN after looking through it for just a few minutes, we want to let every Shellhead know that this book will blow your mind.

Synopsis
Discover the complete story of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for the first time-from their humble beginnings in black-and-white comics created in a home studio in Dover, New Hampshire, to their multimillion-dollar breakout success, and their position as four of the best-loved characters of all time. Featuring interviews with every key figure in the Turtles' evolution, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Ultimate Visual History presents the tale straight from the mouths of those who were there, including co-creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, animation legend Fred Wolf, creature effects maestro Brian Henson, and even the man behind the "Ninja Rap," Vanilla Ice. In visually stunning detail, this book explores each iteration of the Turtles from the past to the present, including the hit animation show from Nickelodeon and the Michael Bay-produced live-action movie from Paramount starring Megan Fox. Bringing together the rarest art and artifacts from three decades of TMNT comics, TV shows, and films, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Ultimate Visual History leaves no shell unturned!, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Ultimate Visual History relates the amazing story of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, from their humble beginnings in the pages of a cult comic book, to their enduring status as cultural icons. Beginning with the creative spark that led comic book artists Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird to envision these unlikely heroes, this lavishly illustrated book tracks the Turtles' phenomenal explosion in popularity as they became mainstays of kids' TV and the protagonists of one of 1990s' biggest box office hits. The Ultimate Visual History also looks at the periods when the Turtles briefly slipped out of fashion, showing how enthusiasm for these evergreen warriors was kept alive by new comic books, animated shows, and, of course, some hugely imaginative merchandising, Discover the complete story of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for the first time-from their humble beginnings in black-and-white comics created in a home studio in Dover, New Hampshire, to their multimillion-dollar breakout success, and their position as four of the best-loved characters of all time.
