Hey all. Being without internet and Turtles in general for a whole week, which drove me nuts, I randomly just started thinking about stuff I wanted to ask once I was able to use a computer again. My computer died (sorta) on me (motherboard), so I had to wait until payday to get a new comp, which was today.

Anywho, in your opinion, which medium do you feel that Mikey was the best portrayed. I've come across on this board how so many people have disliked his portrayal in like say the 2k3 series and stuff, and how he's the literal clown of the group.

Now, in my opinion, based on the mediums I have been exposed to, OT, Archie comics, Mirage comics, I'd have to say the OT series. I don't remember enough about TNM to comment on that (but didn't he hit on Venus a lot?). I felt that the Archie comics didn't focus enough on Mikey's character, 'cept for when he was taken captive by the government, and Mirage is a bit better, but still didn't focus on him enough and was overshadowed by the other three, but I am still early in the Mirage series. I'm only up to the part where the Turtles are about to head back to the city to look for Shredder from Casey's grandmother's farmhouse.

So, which medium, in your opinion, is the best as far as Mikey's character is (was) concerned, and why? Guess you can toss in the four movies too.
