Podzilla is the name given by Michelangelo to the giant mechanical spider created and driven by Baxter Stockman in the Panini comic of the same name.

History[]

Stockman attacks downtown New York the Podzilla. The Turtles witness his attack on the news and go to confront him. After Stockman trounces his brothers, Mike attempts to subdue him with a pen, which he had assumed to be a gadget invented by Donnie, despite the latter's insistence. Since the pen was just a normal pen, he too, is knocked down by Podzilla.

Stockman begins gloating, but then realizes that his enemies can't hear him with the windshield up, since he forgot to build a speaker system. When he rolls it down to continue mocking the Turtles, Mikey nails him with a water balloon, enraging Stockman. He rolls the windshield back up and the Turtles attempt to knock Podzilla over by wrapping grappling hook ropes around the legs, but the legs are too powerful and it simply flings the Turtles around. One of Podzilla's pedipalps sprouts a blade and it cuts the Turtles loose, sending them crashing in a heap.

Stockman uses Podzilla to lift the Turtles up and begins gloating again, forgetting that they cant' hear him. When he rolls down the windshield again, Mikey breaks the pen and squeezes it so that ink spurts Stockman in the face, covering his glasses and blinding him. Podzilla drops the Turtles and topples off of the rooftop, striking the street below.
