People blame Fred Wolf April for being too much of a Lois Lane character, but what is she in every other series?
Mirage: She's mostly a background character thoughout its entire run. I don't really blame them because she wasn't involved with the Turtles adventures much in this series, but she really doesn't do all that much.
4kids: April was mostly treated like a second Donatello in tech support. Again, she was left out of a lot of episodes because she wasn't the damsel in distress but couldn't be involved in all the action either. They did start to have her learn how to fight but that didn't last long beyond Season 3 if I recall.
Nick: She's basically Jean Grey. A human with psychic/telekinesis powers. She even had her pheonix moment in the series.
IDW: She's a good friend and helps the Turtles, nowadays she's working on the Pantheon, but again she's mostly in the "research" role support ever since Secret History of the Foot Clan.
Then in the movies and Archie she was a reporter again. So really, every other version of April is literally treated like something else too.
