You’d think the Ninja Turtles would love Halloween, since it’s the one day when everyone else looks weirder than they do. And you’d be right! The 2003 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series brought us “All Hallows Thieves,” based on the similarly named comic book story. Our heroes attempt to spend a peaceful evening carving jack-o-lanterns, only to end up chasing a couple of robbers who are after a magic statue.
Finally, the latest Halloween episode comes courtesy of Iron Man and His Awesome Friends. In “Iron Friends Trick or Treats!” Tony, Riri, and Amadeus build a trick-or-treating robot that ends up going on a candy-stealing rampage. It also features the Vision in Groucho Marx glasses, because why not.
The second half of the episode, “Leaping into Fall,” also has a fall food emergency: Iron Spider forgot to get pumpkins for their pumpkin party! Time for a trip to the pumpkin patch, but they’re not the only ones looking to have a gourd time this autumn…look, it’s no worse than the jokes in the episode.
