Yeah, Mondo Gecko and Mutagen Man left town walking away from the Mutanimals disapproving of what Hob did as they were in the dark like Sally and Pete. I admit I am surprised Pete showed up out of nowhere since he was off the grid and not accounted for like Mondo and Seymour when he was in the background of Hob's place.

Don trying to explain their overcomplicated IDW origin to Mona is pretty funny. Kinda shows how ridiculous it became.

Gotta ease into that Don, ha!
I mean, the Turtles origin has never NOT been ridiculous and comic book stories tend to be that way when you just say them out loud like that...But yes, he just dumped about 3 or 4 different mind breaking bits on her at once. I’d honestly assume he was joking if I was her.

Yeah, Donnie you probably should have just started with telling her your brothers, father and you are animals. Then wait later on with the rest of brothers to explain to her about the reincarnation thing.

For Mona Lisa its so much to unpack. But with how everything has been going around lately. She will get around to it and realize anything is possible.

Awesome issue. There was alot happening in this one. I wonder if an alternate cover for a later issue is going to be a "change" ad for sally. I also wonder if this is where everything go's wrong and it's why future litas here. Hell I thought she was gonna pull a trunks and pop up with an antidote.

Casey Jones randomly clobbering the ant mutant over the head with his hockey stick made me laugh. It didn't even look like the ant guy was coming at him.

Look, whatever floats your boat.
Her whole tirade about the Turtles being different than the others was just so incredibly and unforgivably rude... Damn. Last edited by ChosenOne; 12-09-2020 at 11:52 AM. |

One thing I wonder is how were all these humans in contact with all these animals before they got mutated? There was a whale man there, a hippo, the poison dart frog guy...did all these people visit a zoo the day before the mutagen bomb went off?

Those are Fred Wolf/Archie rules, are they not? We don't really know how the mutagen works in IDW TMNT. Apparently no animal contact is required, even thought Bebop and Rocksteady's initial mutations seemed to suggest otherwise.

Alright, new issue, I’m going to revive an ill fated idea I’ve done in the past where I comment on every page of the issue.
Spoiler:
continued in part 2

Part 2:
Spoiler:
Overall, a lot of talking but we’re moving the plot along. I may complain about the particulars but I like the overall choice to have the turtles take direct action, even if I sort of want it to devolve into a dark street warfare plot with Hob and Sally battling for control. Mona was clearly affected by her parents’ rejection and felt a lot less overly optimistic here. Which frankly was welcome. I can see people not caring and the dialogue still has that odd feeling that I can’t really explain but overall I’m still in the positive camp for the main comic.

My personal theory is that the bomb was loaded with random DNA from various animals. Which I confess brings up many, many technical questions but I’m just going to assume the Mutanimals got them from their various raids of Null.

I really enjoyed this issue. Getting to see how normal people feel about Hob (pros and cons!) and the Turtles and mutation...
This is bringing me back onboard, Sophie. I know I've been pretty critical of Mutant Town so far, but this is working for me again! (Also, the elephant mutant was pretty great, LOL) The shipping elements are still super heavy and not at all what I want in a TMNT comic, but stories are starting to feel like they MATTER again.
