volume 4 issue 9 question
 

So when is issue 9 comming out.

Mirage is releasing each issue on a bi-monthly basis, so the next issue will be out in April.

yea but the next issue will contain both 9 and 10 (look at the recent blast from the bast) so is it still coming out in April?

Good question...

Unfortunatly you have that mixed up. #9 will be a regular sized issue, but #10 will be a the supersized issue including the portion that was originally going to be #11.

Ahh.. I didn't remember that either.

yep dis is gonna be one confusin' schedule I guarowntee!

What I want to know is who is he killing off? It looks like it'll be April, but rereading #8, Raph mentioned something about Leo and Ocho finishing things for good...

Well Laird did say that they were going to kill off a significant figure, apparently much more then the Shredder. Here are the possibilies...

Leonardo
April O'Neil
Splinter (with Leo taking over as seen in the 3D pilot)

I didn't think that Ocho was a key figure in the series. But chances that Leo is going to die? I dunno, I can't see the turtles being a threesome.

I doubt it will be one of the turtles. Splinter April and Robyn are realistic choices.

So Casey loses yet another one...

It's a strong possibility that April will be the one to go. Though it would be kinda ironic considering she was the first human friend they ever made.

Watch Laird somehow kill off Shadow to save April. Hell, maybe even Casey...

I seriously doubt it would be either of them. Besides, I wanna see how Shadow deals with Jay after she learns what happened.

No way not Shadow or Casey, or any of the turtles, Im going with Splinter, and if it is, boy will this forum b busy!!!

I say it's Splinter as well. I mean, He's old... plus did anyone watch the 3D pilot showing Leonardo telling Splinter that he'll take charge? I mean that *was* written by Mirage wasn't it? I'm sure it'll also be in the new cartoon series as well.

I don't think it was written by Mirage, it was just a presentation video made by Rainbow studios[I think] To sell a show. It is clear That Splinter does not Live forever, but I think it's too early for him yet...

I dunno, i think he's making it seem like april woudl be, but she's too obviouse, here's what is possible
Splinter
April
Shadow
Robyn
Fugitoid (he was prety important)
casey
or some of the mutant friends.

We also have to remember that the person who's going to die will have as much of an impact if not more as Shredder.

I've got a sneaky suspicion that Splinter will be the one to go, scince he's real old and he's taught the Turtles everything he knew. There is no real importance for his character, but I would rather have April or Shadow die.

dats a' good point, he don't even live wit dem dere turtle boys nomoe...

Yet he still takes care of Shadow. And who else thinks Jay was really there to cap Splinter? can we say 'infiltration' boys and girls? I knew we could... I got five bucks that says he's a foot plant... Get close to Shadow, get in good with the family. Kill Splinter. Get closer to Shadow while she's grief stricken. Meet mom and Dad. Meet the 'extended family.' And then, once their location is known, Karai sneds the strike force and then BOOM, City at War II starts up... And Leo gets to ice both Ocho and Karai, in a dazling show of swordsmanship.
