Who Did The Bite Of 87

The Bite of ’87 is an infamous event in the history of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The event occurred at 3 a.m. on the night of April 25, 1987. It was during this early morning event that The Shredder made his first appearance in the Turtles’ lives and launched his campaign to capture them.

Before this fateful night, the Turtles had been living peacefully in their sewer home, unaware of the outside world and going about their usual ninja training. But one night, the Turtles heard shouting and laughter coming from the sewers about a mile upstream. Wanting to investigate further, the Turtles emerged from the sewers and stumbled upon a group of Foot Clan ninjas led by the Shredder.

The Shredder had come to the sewers with one goal in mind: to capture and enslave them. A fight ensued, and the Turtles bravely fought off the Foot Clan, though they were outnumbered. Unfortunately, during the course of the fight, Michelangelo managed to get pinned by the Shredder. The Shredder prepared to make Michelangelo pay for his "impudence". Just then, the Shredder sunk his sharp, metal teeth into Michelangelo’s shoulder, leaving a nasty bite mark.

This one act was the start of a long, tumultuous war between the Turtles and the Shredder. Though the Turtles managed to escape that night, their uninvited guest left a lasting imprint on their lives. This attack, which is now commonly referred to as The Bite of ’87, is considered to be the moment when the Turtles truly understood the threat posed by the Foot Clan and the Shredder.

Since then, The Bite of ’87 has become an iconic part of Ninja Turtles lore. It has been featured in multiple iterations of the series, from the original cartoons in the 1980s to recent movies and video games. The Bite of ’87 and the notorious villain who did it will be remembered in the annals of fandom forever.
