Spoilers n' Sh*t

EXCELLENT issue. The best one I've read so far (even though I've pretty much just started).

Jim Lawson's art style has finally grown on me. His details in the Raph/Leatherhead battle were fantastic. Though it's a shame Leatherhead lost since I was rooting for him. They seemed pretty equally matched, however.

Love the references to the Rat King. With him being confirmed for season 4 maybe this is a hint that we might see him again in the comic. That'd be great. Don's predicament seems to either be getting worse or better. He figured out what those giant monsters are but now they're coming for him.

The Mikey/Regenta stuff is same old, same old. He's flirting with her, she's acting snooty but seems to like him etc. Get on with it! At least there was a fraction of action (rhyme!) in this issue and a little more tension between them.

And Leo's story was decent enough. Three Moon Jaguar appears to have killed himself, though it might be a trick. There's also a mysterious book involved that Karai doesn't want Leo to know about. The Necronomicon maybe? Yeah, didn't think so.

All in all, I thought it was a great issue. The Raph/Leatherhead fight stole the show, though.
