Mutant Apocalypse Speculation and wishlisting thread

[JH24]

When the page loaded and I saw the crying gif in Vickey's post I thought for a moment it was about Mikey or Leo. That gave me quite a shock.

It's a shame ICK or Timothy aren't mentioned, but there are many characters in the series and if they had to show what happened to all of them there wouldn't be much story left.

They probably will focus most on the main characters, drop maybe some hints and info about the past years, and let the viewer fill in the gaps.

[Vicky82]

So with the Latin Spanish Voice actor for Bebop talking about the final arc, does that mean Bebop and maybe Rocksteady are going to be in the final.

Sorry about that

Namely - if its accurate to say that the arc occurs 50yrs in the future, then April would have been really quite old to be having a child that is seemingly only in its teenage years.

If we presume that Mystery mutant is roughly 15 - 18 years old, then it would have been 35-32 years after the crossover story that April gave birth. Assuming April is still 16 during the crossover arc (which is itself being kinda generous - she ought to be 17-18 by now), then she would have been between 48-51 years old at least at the time.

Admittedly there is the mutant factor involved, but April is mostly human, so assuming she's fertile at all, then she'd be well past most womens ability to bear children reliably/safely. Not to mention that it would mean that she and Don were a couple for DECADES before having a child.

The numbers just dont add up to allow Mystery mutant to be their child, Unless, it is genetic engineering (again - a bit late in the day to be considering starting having children?)

The only exception to this I can think of (aside from the writing team just shrugging and doing it anyway), would be that Mystery mutant is their child, but she was born much earlier than the apocalypse arc storyline - only to be then placed into stasis. After all, the Kraang stasis pod from Buried secrets is still around and known to both Don and April - and using it would even set up opportunity for a potential Superman reference.

Actually, it's very possible that April could have had this baby quite late. A woman doesn't just jump into complete menopause at a certain age (like 45) with fertility being suddenly non-existent. It's gradual, and it depends on how old the woman's mother and sisters went into it if/when they entered theirs. Peri-menopause babies are not unheard of, and might even be slightly on the rise because many women assume that fertility mostly ends at 45 (thanks WebMD) and stop taking birth control.

If April does end up intimate with Don, it's possible that she and Don use birth control for many years (not wanting to risk having a child that that might have severe genetic defects and/or fearing for that child's possible quality of life since being a mutant isn't exactly a cakewalk.) But April assumes that her fertility is now 'done' when she hits a certain age or starts going into signs of peri- menopause, and stops using birth control, and conceives this hybrid child.

Alternately, this could be a reincarnation of April too, or a baby mutant turtle that Donnie and April found/created with mutagen, and the adopted daughter wears yellow in honor of her 'mother.'

Interesting find from Reddy -

So Don is confirmed as a robot (though we do not know in what manner) and apparently April and Don never had kids.
Which blows the 'Mystery mutant is their daughter' theory away and right back into wild speculation territory.


There are some caveats to this however; Brandon has been known to give misinformation before...

And clutching at straws on behalf of the Apritello crowd, I guess its possible Mystery Mutant is a descendant, but was created after the two parents were already dead. Don being a robot for example, suggests his physical body underwent something pretty drastic. It would also explain the age/timeline problem.


On the plus side, at least Brandon gave a nice straight answer to April's mums fate.

What about Raph and Mona Lisa? they probably had children, given that these two never stopped kissing each other. hahah

[Tarris Vaal]

Well Mona Lisa is a very legitimate question. We have no indications at all what happened to her - even more so as she wasn't in the crossover ep.

Apparently the mystery turtle is

Spoiler:

Mikey!!!!!!!!!!!!



It can't be him, he looks so different.

Now that you mention it, the look is familiar to something we've already seen.

That might mean this could be canon?

Can't? He's just old and shrivled up because he lives in a nuclear wasteland.

[Tarris Vaal]

Possibly, but he would have lost a huge amount of weight (though if Don lost his entire body and is a robot, I guess technically Don wins that round)

What dissuades me from that theory though is the feet. The toes are radically different to how they look when they're younger.

Though it does have the knee pads...


I dunno, I'd happily accept that its not a Don/April kid, but for that to be Mikey seems really odd.

Mind you... Raph with beard....

[JH24]

If it really is Mikey then that gives hope Leo will be in it as well. But considering how they don't want to reveal much yet, Leo's appearance/role might be very different.

It was a shock finding out, he is my favourite character.

He's so skinny, frail and nervous, I wonder if he got captured and tortured.

[Redworld96]

Raph reached the same height as a Triceraton and has beard, some big sh^t happened to Donnie and he turned himself into a Robot, Mikey lost like 20/30 kilograms ...

come on, let's think what happened to Leo

Is it confirmed as him or just looking likely?

If you look at the link. Cee Willy, former episodic director of the show didn't say it was him but left some clues (blue eyes, orange straps and bandana)So it's obvious it's Mikey.

hmmm, they gotta stop giving it all away. Guess we'll probably get a glimpse of Nards before the finale unless they really do want to save that.
Bit mean to make Mikey all shriveled.

[Tarris Vaal]

At this rate Leo will be a brain in a jar

I'm already worried thinking about it. Imagination can sometimes be a scary thing.

It's almost as if, because of the apocalypse, the turtles have mutated a second time.

At this stage, it wouldn't even surprise me.

[Powder]

Maybe Leo will be on some blind meditative zen master sh*t or something.

I bet Donnie being a robot, might be a reference to the IDW comics, when Donnie's mind was transferred to Metalhead.

Or maybe he's not a rebot at all, but wearing some IronMan type of suit?
