Not all of them have appeared on covers at once in the past. I think Sally was missing from one of the points that Mike was living with them.

*CyberCubed* · 07-30-2018, 01:55 PM

So it seems like issue #51 onward has made the Pantheon and Bishop the new main antagonists as replacements for Shredder/Krang. We also had to deal with the aftermath of the Utroms awaking on Burnow Island, the Triceratons coming to Earth, Leatherhead finally being introduced, and of course Splinter taking over the Foot in general.

Which goes to prove how minor the whole Darius Dunn/Street Phantoms stuff was, it seemed like it only existed to show Splinter kill off an enemy, but it seems like filler in the grand scheme of things. I feel like they spent way too many issues on that, and to a lesser extent with Darkwater and Agent Winters/Knight when those two were just written off the series quickly as well. They should have just stuck to Bishop EPF from the start.

It's probably also the reason Null's subplot and Karai making her own clan story arcs have moved at a snails pace, because they're generally left on the backburner while we had to deal with everything else. Since Hun/Baxter seem to be transitioning to good guys (or as far as we can tell), and Bebop/Rocksteady are just off on their own now, I would like to see the current subplots come to a head while we move on to some other stuff. Not to mention Ch'rell being around now.

I want more Madam Null. All Null all the time.

Yeah what even happened with the Street Phantoms? Seems like they fell off the plot truck a few miles back. At least the Darkwater thing had a resolution when they decided to no longer cooperate with Bishop. They could be a back up plot point that could show up later.

I'm currently interested whats going on between Casey and Jennika. Also the fact that the turtles had to escort an entire orphanage of children back to the Foot Clan HQ. I'm pretty sure this is the first time they've been exposed by so many normal people at once isn't it? Like...not counting time travel incidents.

Also am I the only person who thinks Null's plans to make a mutant labor force a really stupid idea? Mostly because these mutants have sapience? Krisa (the snake) is already turning against Null. Because Free Will is a perfect asset for super slaves.

*CyberCubed* · 09-10-2018, 01:01 PM

The Street Phantoms were defeated and Splinter said he'd let them go as long as they no longer interfere with the Foot Clan. It was in the issue he killed Darius. I thought it was pretty obvious that was closure for them.

True I guess I'm just so used to bad guys returning for round two after such a defeat. But I had forgotten that Splinter took their technology so that's impossible.

I think Null’s goal is to refine and alter the Mutagen so that the results don’t have free will. Like with that weird monster that attacked the seal that wasn’t sapient. Is it possible Wyrm will become shark worm Shredder?

EDIT: What I take of the Tokka and Rahzar picture is that Rahzar seems to be going the former human route like in 2k3 and Nick, given his torn attire.

Sophie Campbell · 09-10-2018, 07:31 PM

Wait what, Rahzar?? Where???

I think it's best to let Sophie answer in her own words, but consider that that post is from May of 2017....

I would rather Groundchuck and Dirtbag find their next role in the TMNT multiverse.

*Utrommaniac* · 09-11-2018, 08:39 AM

There's a simple solution to those questions (and...other Playmates shout outs)

Oh you're talking about my own drawing! Haha. Yeah that was just for fun, not official IDW stuff! I drew Rahzar wearing pretty much the same gear he had in the movie, kneepads and armor made out of junkyard scraps, he definitely isn't formerly human.

Until they appear its their unofficial official IDW look!

Want to tackle Groundchuck and Dirtbag next?

Indeed, Chuck. You may remain in our stable- erm, barracks, until you are called on for by the Null Group. The sole mutant currently requested is “Venin”, aka Montgomery aka Fishface. Who else will accompany him?

*Utrommaniac* · 09-11-2018, 11:33 AM

I pretty much just plucked randomly off Playmates from what I knew really weren't around

(It's also been a great pain to not just...do an entire thing of Emperor's New Groove gags.)

What are you waiting for? How about some "Alice In Wonderland" gags tossed in there, too?
