I think the style may be based on the video below.
(Just a hunch though)

There are worse styles to emulate than those of Jhonen Vasquez.
I love his stuff, and this short is one of my favorites.

Also they will not be able to use the short name April. Now it will be racism.

* Hate commencing in three, two, one ...* Personally, I would get behind the idea of Leonardo being the "trickster" of the group. I like a character with charismatic and jester-like traits. In my opinion, those are great attributes that would help make a character more dynamic. Subsequently, I would also accept Raphael leading (and hopefully, guiding) the group. It's a welcoming and appreciating change. I hope that they won't disregard these changes. Last edited by Papenbrook; 02-20-2018 at 08:59 PM. |

Well at that rate lets just make Splinter a female mole rat that's a former pet from Alabama.
The "charismatic and jester-like traits" have been owned already for a long time. By Mikey. |

In what capacity? What he wanted was what we've always had, & we know very little about the new one.

April being a teen again was an easy guess, it worked well the first time and with the show aimed at kids it makes sense for April to be the same age as the Turtles.
Of course April looks to have some magic cat creature/pokemon or whatever that is, so it seems like she'll have "powers" similar to Nick April but in a different manner. Instead of telepathic powers, her cat is probably going to transform into weapons like that glowing bat she has in the artwork. |

Not really. April is still a fighter. And now instead of a teen, she's a kid.

Personally, I'm kind of half expecting the "cat" to talk and essentially be this show's version of Spike from My Little Pony. Some kind of go between communication tool with some leader of Magicland.

I just thought the mystical powers were in the weapons which they would be to do with the mystical world they go to.

I've asked a lot of people who are pleased about the new Leonardo Spin, and most of them haven't been able to tell me what it is about Leonardo that they like aside from the fact that he's the leader. That's less a personality trait and more at job description. So I'm more than willing to give this a chance and maybe give the old boy some life outside of being the substitute teacher.

I found that the Nick cartoon did a great job at giving Leo a personality. Before he did come off as a "stoic leader" with no other character traits.
I mean, Raphael is still my favorite turtle, but Leo does come in as a close second. But I've always adored the idea of Raphael being a potential leader. Him and Leo always came off as the same. Like the two sides of one coin. But I didn't like that in Nick version where they discarded that aspect by making him a panicking wimp when he took lead.

The glowing green bat suggests to me that April has mutagenic powers.
I wouldn't be surprised if those powers are similar to GL. |
