Older characters from TMNT lore that you think will fade away into obscurity?

Only because Casey and April taking care of a kid makes everyone seem older than they ought to be. I actually would not be surprised if some version showed a future version of everyone and Shadow was involved.

It's an interesting character concept, it's just that you can't explore the character without having everyone in the series be "too old" based on the "Unwritten Rules of Comic Book Storytelling", which clearly state no main characters be shown as older than 30 or else become too hard for the target audience to relate to. So I think she'll be used again, but only in a "flash-forward/possible future" scenario.

I think a lot of the secondary villains from the 2003 series will be forgotten; a lot of them were fairly generic and left little lasting impression.
