The smoke signals mean war when Chief Leo hits the wild frontier. He’s not a Cherokee or Apache; this Mutant maverick is in a tribe all by himself – the Turtle Tribe! And Chief Leo’s got all the Indian instruments to make him a traditional wild west warrior. Don’t sneeze at his feathery ceremonial headdress or he’ll skewer you with his sewer spear. Watch the arrows from his quasi quiver. Then when it’s trophy takin’ time, Chief Leo uses his trusty totally Turtle tomahawk to give those forked tongued Foot fiends a close shave – very close. So fork over the wampum, dudes. Chief Leo’s worth his weight in horses and tree bark pizza.
From the Personal Collection of Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman, creators of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
