"Traps, Turbo, & Terror!" Ninja High School Featuring Speed Racer#1 (September 1993) with credits to Mark Levine/Ian Ward (script), William Jang/Dan Schaefer/Albert Deschesne (art), Joseph Allen (colors), and David Lanphear (letters)
Nearing the end, so let's look at one of the first crossovers NHS did. In the early 90's, NOW Comics had the rights to Speed Racer and thus we have Ninja High School meeting the cast of Speed Racer.
This is the day of the Quagmire 1000, the biggest race ever! Such a challenge must be meet by Greg!
Yeah, Greg. In the NOW series, Speed was simply a nickname, so more often than not character called out for Greg Racer.
As the race prep is underway, ninjas opt to steal RNC's latest laser weapon. Is the Car Acrobatic Team responsible?
The interior art, man, I'm sure these guys were nice and professional but the Speed Racer series didn't have the best visual take on the character. Manga ish but not quite so characters are left with giant heads on stick necks.
