Al'falqa

Emerging from the pages of Archie's beloved Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures in 1992, Al'falqa is one of those intriguing Copper/Modern Age figures who inhabits the wilder, more expansive corner of the TMNT universe that the Adventures series made its own. Created by Dean Clarrain and Chris Allan, this rare character shares the page with Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Splinter themselves — genuinely rarefied company. With only a handful of appearances to their name, Al'falqa is precisely the kind of deep-cut discovery that makes digging through back issues such a rewarding adventure for dedicated fans of the era.
