It’s morphin’ time—wait, wrong show! But the power is still on as we explore the brand-new crossover Turtles of Grayskull where two beloved 1980s franchises—He-Man and the Masters of the Universe and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles—join forces across dimensions.


We begin with the Turtles’ gritty comic origins from TMNT #1 (1984, Mirage Studios) by Kevin Eastman & Peter Laird before fast-forwarding to the Nickelodeon era and an animated introduction to Renet the Time Mistress. Then it’s onto the main event: the recent Turtles of Grayskull comic by Tim Seeley & Freddie E. Williams II, where interdimensional time-knots, ooze-infused heroes, and a power-hungry ninja villain bring Eternia and Earth crashing together.


Along the way we discuss nostalgia, collectible toys, how the Turtles and He-Man evolved over decades, the surprising depth of this crossover, and what future mashups we’d love to see next.
