Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Micro-series #8: Fugitoid

Hm, it sounds like this Fuigitoid actually willingly transfers his mind to a robot body, whereas in Mirage it was a freak accident that left his human body destroyed and had his mind in Fugitoid's robot brain.

If Prof. Honeycutt willingly transfers his mind to a robot body, could his human body still be kept around somewhere?

Temporary mutation doesn't sound very irrevocable to me.

I would wager that Krang destroyed his body before he discovers that he had transferred his mind over to his robot body.

I like the idea that Honeycutt willingly does this as opposed to being one of the many "incidental/accidental" events in the Mirage universe. It makes perfect sense if you're desperate and on the run. Though I always liked the idea that in Mirage it was a more perilous situation since "robots have no rights!" Hopefully they keep that angle somewhere since Mirage never really did anything with that idea beyond that first story arc. Could lead to some really interesting events...
