I had no idea Laird had instituted a "no deaths" rule for the future era stories. Kind of odd that he apparently instituted it AFTER two stories that vaguely alluded to the Turtles dying had been written.
Also interesting about the April robot being a standin for an "alien girlfriend" Raph was going to have. Though I was more excited that Berger wrote the last panel with the allusion that Mikey never made it back from his Volume 4 space adventure (even though his appearance in "Swan Song" says otherwise).
