Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures #21
Space Junk, Face Funk, Cyber Punk, Thief:
A U.S. spy satellite falls from its orbit and crashes into a pile of U.S.S.R. space junk, becoming entangled with a radioactive canister. The two fuse together in their descent towards the earth below. A man is watching the news in his cabin in the woods and becomes frustrated and angry with all of the reports dealing with mankind’s effect on the failing environment. He lifts his TV set and carries it outside, where he tosses it into a garbage can – suddenly, he’s struck with a blast of light and energy…Moments later, we see that the woodsman has been transformed. He’s now some sort of hybrid between man, television and satellite!” What goes around, comes around,” the creature states, “What comes around… goes around!” With that, the cyborg morphs into a ball of fiery energy and flies off. The TMNT are working out in the sewers, still concerned about their missing brother, Raphael. Splinter and April are using the computers at April’s news office to do research when one of O’Neil’s co-workers arrives. Splinter hides while April has a joyful reunion with her friend, Malcolm, who thought she had been killed. The man asks April if she’s investigating the reports of the fallen spy satellite, but O’Neil states that she’s interested in something else. Malcolm politely excuses himself so April can get back to work. Splinter wishes to leave, and April sits at the keyboard to save her work – only to be pulled into the screen of the monitor by the cyborg! The Sensei tries to pull April free, but he’s too late and is blasted by the satellite dude. Later, Splinter explains to the Turtles what happened. Donatello hacks into the news station’s computers, attempting to trace where April was taken. Meanwhile, April is surprised to discover that her abductor is interested in having her interview him. The man states that he’s about to destroy the world’s communications systems – when April asks why, he tells her to grab her camcorder and he’ll explain everything. The fellow stands and explains…
