I kind of feel you on this. It's not the best issue ever, but I enjoyed it for what it was. Art definitely felt rushed often, but considering how busy Kevin is and how long this book was, I don't blame him, it's just unfortunate.

It actually reminded me a lot of the Unmentionables, only it wasn't quite as much of a faux-caper this time around. But the goofy humor was there as well as, unfortunately, the total lack of focus around the turtles. Not enough turtles was definitely my biggest disappointment, but there were some really cool moments with the Shredder, and there were some moments that made me chuckle out loud, like Raph's constant harping on Casey and his bat.

Overall, it was a solid blast from the past, just unfortunately, not the best part of the past. I know Eastman & Laird have their fair share of goofiness, but I'm hoping to see a more serious Eastman tale sometime in the near future!
