The Johnny Turbo Story
WARNING: Contains excessive amounts of WTF moments and hilarity!

Spoiler: A sample page, to give you an idea of what you're in for - yes, this IS real
Image


To sum up the plot of Johnny Turbo; yes, folks, it's an ad with a plot - Johnny Turbo, grand champion of the TurboGrafx, goes up against the evil (and legally distinct) Feka Empire to prove that yes, the TurboGrafx really is the first ever CD-based games system!

...Yeah. You have no idea how funny (and unintentionally homoerotic - yeah, really) this is, especially for something meant as an advertising campaign marketed towards children. You have to wonder who the hell thought it was a good idea to slander Sega as a evil communist empire.

Here's the obligatory question though: why? Why did they even do this? Who in their right mind thought this would ever work?!

Also, what do you think of modern game ads, especially compared to this? :)

Please tell me you read them all and simply read faster than I do. I read these years ago, but I'm re-reading because I've forgotten so much. XD

I'm just getting to issue three... the people who made the comic were insane to even think something like this would work... :meekins:
I could have all of it finished by now but I'm reading the commentary too.

You want to know the best bit? Johnny and Tony actually exist. Keep reading.

...This could not possibly be more amusing.

Yes, I used the mafia goon pictures as a source for my av and sig. I've also taken to using that image pretty regularly. XD

B.O. PAAWWWWWWNCH!!

More people need to see this comic and be horribly mentally scarred by it. This will always be classic. XD

The big versions of the images have long since been deleted.

In other words, link the mini version or your image link will stay broken. ;)

This is less worse than the Doom comic.

Also, it'll never beat the Sega ad that had them grab a SNES, and then drop it off the top of a building. It was hilarious.

As far as who in their right mind would think that it'd ever work? I'm a wrestling fan. I've seen FAR more stupid stuff.
