Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures #22

Eastman and Laird's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures #22 brings the shell-raising action in style, with a cover by Gene Colan depicting a rooftop showdown where the armored Shredder looms menacingly overhead while a giant "Acme Traps" mousetrap device dangles in the chaos below. Two of the Turtles and a red-haired young woman scramble at street level, all eyes locked upward in a mix of alarm and determination — and the story title "Rat Trap" makes the ominous implication of that oversized trap delightfully clear. A solid 1991 entry in Archie's Adventure Series, with interiors written by Dean Clarrain and illustrated by Gene Colan — an artist whose moody, kinetic linework brings real energy to the Turtles' world.
