Infestation 2: TMNT #2 discussion thread.

I picked it up today (both covers). It came out to be not as good as I expected, but it's still a great read. It does indeed feel like a Mirage book in a way, and that is something that appeals to me a lot. The art, however, seems to be a bit more rushed than in issue 1. There's a big lack of backgrounds, the inking is less detailed (you can even still see the pencils in quite a lot of panels) and there's way too many panels where the feet of the Turtles haven't even been drawn (it can be seen as a style thing, but I think it's a bit too much). I really really love Torres' work, so this disapointed me a bit.

Still, this arc is for me the best IDW has done so far, and it's always a pleasure to read Tristan's TMNT. I hope we get more books from him soon.
