IMHO they already did a great job with his character in season 1.
I agree, the superheroes was one thing I never really liked about the 2k3 series. I have nothing against them, but even just their presence took a lot away of the turtles' abilities and like you said uniqueness/role. Enemies like (Utrom) Shredder could easily have been defeated by them.
It's strange how in 2k3 they created a gritty world which has a lot of similarities to real life, and then throw a group of superheroes into it. I respect that decision, of course, but I always tried to pretend they didn't exist.
I liked the idea of Mikey wanting to be a superhero, it was fitting for his personality back then, but without the "real superheroes club" part.

I think that has more to do with Peter Laird being a fan of superheroes in general. As for me, I liked that superheroes existed in that show. Maybe I'm just a fan of comic books and superheroes, though. I mean, Batman lives in the same universe as Superman, Wonder Women, JL, etc., and he's not even a legit superhero. Strange and abnormal things happen in Gotham City (Killer Croc, Rahs Al Ghul and the Lazarus Pit, Humpty Dumpty).
