In this episode of Turtle Tracks, host Brian VanHooker talks to a guy who was with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles since the very beginning: Ralph DiBernardo of Jetpack Comics in Rochester, New Hampshire. Ralph talks about his role in supporting his friends Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman with their first issue of TMNT and what they were like back in the early 1980s. He also recounts seeing Eastman and Laird reunite at Jetpack after not seeing each other in years. To visit the Jetpack website, head to https://jetpackcomics.com/ and when you do, tell 'em Turtle Tracks sent you! (this doesn't get you a discount or anything, I just want you to say it)
