Official Episode Discussion: S2 #9 "The Kraang Conspiracy"

I don't see April as a mutant. I know they call her a half human half alien mutant. In this series a mutant is a person or creature who has come in contact with Mutagen and is transformed into something else.

And from what we know is that her mother had been experimented on sometime before April was born, so the changes to her DNA may have occurred before she was conceived or when she was in utero.

The only reason they are calling her a mutant is because at this point there is nothing else to call her. And more is likely to be revealed as Donnie and April, as well as the other Turtles and Casey look further into this. And hopefully Kurtzman would be able to shed more light on it as well. Particularly if it turns out Kurtzman is an Utrom.

It would be a good homage to Secret of the Ooze if it did turn out he wasn't really human. Because in early production scripts of SotO Dr. Perry was supposes to have a scene at the end where he opens his shirt and reveals that he's really an utrom.

And that's a scene I can see slipping at the end of an episode the next time Kurtzman appears.
