Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutanimals #2 Preview & Discussion

[Allio]

I'm one of those that really doesn't care of the whole gender issue...I mean, I watch shows like Ever After High and I don't complain of the lack of good male characters (which they have only 1) it just comes with a demographic (I mean, you don't complain that Mahou Shoujo don't have guy characters)

The thought process: "Hmmmm, I think I'd like to make the IDW Null a woman."

And one e-mail to Bobby later, it was approved.

It's super refreshing just to have a cast where EVERY character is really fleshed out.
And I'm digging pajama Herman. XD

Thank you so much -- and yeah, pajama Herman is great!

It's "radically" stupid for me. Deal with it. It's my right to contradict the prevailing opinion.

Well, the women in this comic are great so it's awesome to see more. Especially villains!

I've been able to easily introduce a lot of my friends to TMNT through the awesome character variety. :3

Dude chill the deuce out. Nobody in this thread has said anything that should concern anyone to the degree that you should feel the need to lash out at anyone.

Wow.... now I feel downright sexist. When I first saw the female Null, I never saw her as 'THE Null' if you wanna put it like that. I honestly thought she was one of his associates or underlings or whatever, because hey, why waste his busy schedule for a simple interview when he can have one of the company manager do it for him, right?

It wasn't til I saw all the posts (and of course the official IDW guy's confirmation) that it finally dawned on me that the girl actually is IDW's new take on Null.


As for Lindsay's attitude and failure to ask why there's a demon lady in the room.... you kinda sorta don't ask those kinds of stupid questions to someone that casually mentioned the amount of pressure needed to crush a human skull.... I kinda think she knows what to and what not to ask.

That is a very good point.

I get the feeling Ms. Null's skull can take more than 8-lb per square inch of pressure.

Just starting my review for this, and there is SO much to talk about.

Then I remember I don't do spoilers and have to scale it all back.

All I'll say is I completely understand why Paul loves page 6 so much.

Loving this series so far. It's being so much more than a cool story.

Reading it back that is quite the tease, so my apologies.

But it's less than two days away so you should be OK?

Be strong! You can get there!

[corvus]

You guys..
"Whys her skin red?"
"What's with the horns?"

It's New York! That's why.

I couldn't find the thread with the solicit for issue #3 of the Mutanimals so I figured this is the next best place to post this:

That is some seriously awesome art. I never liked Mondo Gecko, but IDW has changed my mind.

I just like the bit of foreshadowing we get from this cover, look between Slash's legs...
