The reason for Li Yang’s inclusion into the TMNT Playmates Toys fold aside from creator’s Dave Garcia and Monica Sharp’s friendship and association with Mirage Studios was also that at some point P.K. was to appear in the original TMNT cartoon show!! This is very similar to the effect of the deal made with Stan Sakai and the now iconic cross-over history that Usagi Yojimbo and his friends have had with the TMNT. The actual mini-series would span four issues and a hand full of fun crossovers between 1986–1990. Khan signifies furiously : “I AM CALLED KHAN AND I AM NO ONE’S PET!”
