Twisted ToyFare Theatre (TTT) was a popular, humorous comic strip in the monthly magazine ToyFare.
Publication history
Originally titled Twisted Mego Theatre, it predominantly featured 8-inch (200 mm) scale
Twisted Mego Theatre debuted in ToyFare's 1996 Winter Special. The strip ended when ToyFare published its final issue in January 2011.[2]
Collectively, the strips take place in a fictional world called Megoville.[1]
Many early Twisted ToyFare Theatre strips featured several DC Comics characters, though an early strip entitled "The Super-Friends" featured Spider-man insulting the DC heroes for their ridiculousness. DC later filed a cease and desist order, preventing Twisted ToyFare Theatre from ever using DC characters.[1]
