[ChosenOne]

To the person who asked the other day how many turtles we're up to now, that would be eleven: Leo, Raph, Mikey, Don, Slash, Slash clone #1, Slash clone #2, Jennika, Lita, Future Lita and Tokka.

And some folks say there aren't enough turtles in this comic about turtles...

[CyberCubed]

Well at least future Lita is only a temporary addition until whenever she goes back to her time.

[Mutant Ninja Anole]

Huh, I was wondering when the Jennika/Karai confrontation would happen. She tried to kill her but just led to her life and body being totally altered, perhaps forever. Frankly, I feel like Karai got off way too easy in the City at War arc, she has a lot to answer for, given how many people, including Splinter, are dead in large part because she wanted to murder a bunch of orphan children.

[CyberCubed]

Essentially Karai won City at War. Splinter died, she got full control of the Foot Clan again, the Dragon was defeated, Bishop died, and Kitsune and Shredder left as well.

Karai got everything she wanted, besides the orphan kids teleporting to Dimension X with Fugitoid.

[MikeandRaph87]

#114 mentions Bebop and Rocksteady, but Razhar and Tokka are on the cover.

The Last Ronin#3 mentions unexpected allies from the past, but we also see Casey's hockey mask like he is dead. Maybe we have to read the flashback in #2 before we know who it is.

Huh, I guess wasn't considering Lita and Future Lita to be separate characters, but if it works in DBZ I guess it works here too. That being said I wonder if Lita's tessen-fans are a subtle nod to those used by Venus, probably just a coincidence though.

Also am I the only bothered that Jodie is weirdly inconsistent with Jennika's feet? On the cover above and in 109 she has 3 toes but in 111 she has 2 like the rest of the turtles. I guess the cover could be an older picture and I know in early designs Jenny had 3 toed feet but since her introduction she's almost always had 2 toed feet.
It's silly details to get hung up on I know, but you'd think that the artists are given consistent instructions on each characters basic appearance details.

And all three Slashes are dead (AFAWK), and Tokka could very well be a one-arc wonder, so the tally at any given moment isn't really that high.

Yep, I was this close to calling her Mirai Lita.

Gotta ask, though: if Future Lita can go around with just her pink face markings, why can't Alopex do the same and we have to look at that godawful green bandanna? Yuck... That thing looks really, really out of place on her.

I see there’s mention of allies in The Last Ronin... -prays that among them is Leatherhead-

I inquired about Leatherhead, Bebop, and Rocksteady as they were depicted on an alternate cover of #1, however Tom said that it was just a cover and the three characters were not involved in the story at all.

[AquaParade]

So issue #3 of TLR was not pushed back. Interesting.

Mirai as in Studio Chizu's Mirai? Pretty good film but I haven't seen it in a while, kind of obscure outside of Japan too I would imagine, although anything Ghibli-esque probably isn't hurting for fans either.

Mirai Trunks, since you mentioned DBZ.

[frank_one]

Why is there an "Issue one" text on the covers of The Last Ronin #3?

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

That Sophie cover for #114 is hella good.

[lonewarrior20]

i'm wondering how much trouble natsu's getting into hanging out with these three. heck i'm surprised they haven't convinced her to get turned into a mutant, then again what kind would she be?

A mutant Gila monster, of course. Incorporate her tattoos into the skin pattern.

[Mutant Ninja Anole]

Seeing N’sho-v in clothes makes me realize I never got around to reading the B+R mini, though I had heard about him being a mutant now. Is he “Far enough along” to pass for a citizen in Mutant Town?

[CyberCubed]

Natsu's not gonna be mutated ever, I assume.

[Mutant Ninja Anole]

I doubt I will ever say, “I hope this person doesn’t get mutated” but she doesn’t need it.
