Some TMNT stuff really isn't for little kids. |
In Archie Comics' Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures, The Paleocha is an elderly human woman who leads the Coipacú tribe who live in the Brazilian rainforest. The woman speaks the "forest language" and invites the protagonists to supper. Later that evening, Jagwar translates the Paleocha's story about a new creature that has appeared in the tepui—a half-man, half-wolf! Jagwar also relates that pirate-miners have discovered this paradise and have begun to kidnap their young men and make them into slaves. The Paleocha seeks the help of the turtles to stop the pirates and save her people. After completing their mission the Turtles are welcomed back by the Paleocha and she gives Donatello a gift to thank the turtles for saving her people. Don is honored to receive the present, which is the leader's ancient staff. The Paleocha than asks to know more of the wolfman, and he explains that his name is Dreadmon—but at this moment, he'd rather be eating than talking.
