HEY, KID, YOU'RE
A LONG WAY
FROM NICKTOONS!

Some TMNT stuff was always meant for grownups.

Gizmo is a black and white comic book series created, written, and illustrated by Michael Dooney first published by Chance Enterprises, publisher of Domino Chance, and later published by Mirage Studios in May 1986. It tells about the story of two space adventurers: Gizmo Sprocket, a robot with a cool attitude, and Fluffy Brockleton, an anthropomorpic dog. They are accompanied by Soto, a sentient, pan-dimensional space vehicle that resembles to a trailer truck. Gizmo has crossed over with the character Fugitoid from the TMNT series.
