I've never been a fan of making one turtle clearly better than the others. In my mind, that's what separates TMNT from a lot of those other 80s action cartoon shows. There's no He-Man, Lion-O, Optimus Prime, or "Black Lion" that almost always dominates the screentime. They're more like the Ghostbusters. Each character has their own strengths and weaknesses, but their chemistry and combined efforts is what make them special.
