Michelangelo, nicknamed Mike or Mikey, is a super hero and one of the four main characters of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics and all related media. Michelangelo is the most naturally gifted of the four brothers but prefers to have a good time rather than train. The youngest and most energetic of the team, he is shown to be rather immature; he is known for his wisecracks, quick-wit, optimism, and love of skateboarding and pizza. He is usually depicted wearing an orange eye mask. His signatures weapons are a single or dual nunchaku, though he has also been portrayed using other weapons, such as a grappling hook, manriki - gusari, kusarigama, tonfa, and a three  - section staff (in some action figures). He is commonly portrayed in media as speaking with a Californina accent. Michelangelo was given a much bigger role in the 1987 cartoon series and subsequent series and films, directed at a younger audience, than in the more serious Mirage comic book, which were aimed at an older audience, expressing interest in poetry and romancing Horridus. He often coins most of their catchphrases, such as "Cowabunga!" and "Booyakasha!" in the 2012 series. Like all of the brothers, he is named after an Italian Renaissance artist; in this case, he is named after Michelangelo Buonarroti. His name was originally spelled "Michelangelo" by the original creators, possibly misspelling his namesake's name wrong by confusion with "Michael". In the Mirage comics, all four of the Turtles wear red masks, but to tell them apart, he was given an orange mask in subsequent media. This is a 3D layered wall sign decoration. It was made of 1/4 birch plywood and includes seven separate hand painted layers. 13'x17"x2". Any custom size available per your request.
