So, Dave Franchini talked up those new TMNT comics at Zenescope, huh? They're thinking of giving the Turtles a darker twist. I'm down for change, but I hope they don't forget what makes the Turtles special. They've got this cool camaraderie, and I'd hate for that to get lost in all the spooky stuff. I guess it's all about staying true to the heart of TMNT while trying something new. Fingers crossed they find that sweet spot.

Reading about Dave Franchini and Zenescope Entertainment was quite a surprise. They took Cinderella and turned her into a serial killer in the comics! Can you believe it? She started off a bit quirky and ended up all dark and evil. It's pretty wild how characters can change so much in stories. Dave's journey from intern to writer is also impressive. Starting from anywhere and making your way up is pretty cool, don't you think? That is a quiet creative way to have creative use for a public domain character.

So, Dave Franchini got into comics through going to Wizard World Philly Comic Con. Sounds like a blast! I remember the excitement of going to my first comic con, even though it wasn't as big as Wizard World. It's cool to know that these big events can have a big impact on people's lives. And Dave started out in sales and then became an editor and writer. Sometimes you just gotta jump in where you're needed, right? Plus, his idea to sell damaged comics for a dollar turned out to be a hit. Who knew?

It's fascinating to learn how he began writing for Zenescope. He wasn't even aspiring to be a writer; he worked in computers and sales. But he was so into the comics that he pointed out errors and even suggested new concepts. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, he was given the opportunity to write a nonfiction essay about sharks, which led to his writing fiction as well. It demonstrates that if you are passionate about something and continue to demonstrate your enthusiasm, you may end up doing something very amazing. If you ask me, it's a really great story.

Dave Franchini's journey into comics is fascinating. He wrote his first comic with his grandmother when he was eight years old - Ninja Turtles and Batman, can you believe it? And he's now an important member of Zenescope Entertainment. He made it work despite not having studied creative writing. I believe it demonstrates that if you have a passion for something, you can find your way into it regardless of what you studied in school. It only goes to show that you never know where your passions will lead you.

I agree, Dave Franchini's path into the world of comics is truly captivating. The fact that he began his comic journey at such a young age, collaborating with his grandmother on Ninja Turtles and Batman, is quite remarkable.

Not really a huge fan of comics, but i am indeed excited to see other comics picking up steam besides the DC comics.

I'm totally vibing with that. Dave Franchini's comic journey is seriously captivating. Picture this: a young gun diving headfirst into the comic world, even teaming up with his own grandma for some Ninja Turtles and Batman collabs.

I know Dave Franchini, I have read his few books but I don't remember the titles though. I am not a fan of comic books, therefore, when my friend introduced me to this writer, I read a few books and just passed it. I found the interview really interesting.
