Though, I must ask why Dr. Xeinos is the tagalong Utrom, rather than say, Glurin, who might be more suited to a Donatello story? Was there need for one more female character along side Jhanna and April, and Xeinos fit the bill? Would she have answers to the turtles origins that Glurin does not? Is it because of her medical training? All of those things? I'm happy to see her get some spotlight, though.
Andrew may have a better answer for you but knowing him & his previous work I'd say it's due to Image's Vol. 3 being his main squeeze. Integrating elements of it into other material is kinda his thing (I'm with it, yo!).
