Today I learned
That TMNT had a rival comic called Adolescent Radioactive Black Belt Hamsters.
Really.

the first time I encountered it was as a role playing game
This was years before it had any cultural recognition. I remember picking it up and looking at the box and thinking that it was fucking weird name for a role playing game
{edit} looked it up: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teenage_Mutant_Ninja_Turtles_%26_Other_Strangeness
It says you can make your character a pedophile, so better not let sockcooker know or he'll be hounding anyone who reviews it, bless his mentalist heart

Me and Scott Murphy from school did our own rip-off comic strips, mainly for each other's amusement.
I did the Psycho Mutant Sadist Hedgehogs (which is where my b3ta usernames were derived from) and he did the Bunnies Wiv Machine Guns. They were as deep and thoughtful as you'd expect from a couple of 12 year-olds.
