IDW Pairing of Leo & Mike

I would like to give high praise to the IDW creative team for the pairing of Leonardo & Michelangelo, which I feel like has been happening throughout this IDW series. The two really compliment each other nicely. Taking Krang on, showing both of their fighting styles nicely, was brilliantly executed in my opinion. That move Mikey pulled from the bottom while Leo attacked the top? Awesome!

Likewise, I think Donatello & Raphael also gel nicely in this series. I've always preferred a Don/Raph team-up of all the Turtles because their personalities also naturally mesh well: brains & brawn. They were never not done well together in my opinion, so I'm glad IDW has followed suit.

But with Leo & Mike, I feel IDW is creating a new bond between the two that might have been otherwise overlooked in previous incarnations. Maybe it's coincidence, but I also feel that Leo & Mike are the most fleshed out IDW Turtles.
