Shouldn't Leonardo pair up with Mona Lisa?

Maybe not as a couple, but they could be good friends.
Wouldn't it make sense to have Leonardo befriend Mona since Leonardo da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa (a bit of an in-joke)?

Raphael was probably easier to pair up.

Funny you should say that, Because Leonardo has been paired with Mona Lisa, in a couple of fan art at DA before.

I see the logic there. I doubt we'll ever see Mona Lisa ever again though...

Mona Lisa is sort of like Mondo Gecko, Mutagen Man and Muckman, people don't care for the characters as much as the idea of the characters.

Except for the hardest of hardcore fans, that do care about the characters.

Just based on name? Meh. If she'd stuck around they'd at least have known each other still.

The hardest of hardcore are the 1% of the 1%, I seriously doubt that many people care about Mutagen Man or Muckman for those single episodes they appeared in. In the case of Mondo it seems the excuse both Nick and IDW had for bringing him back was to have a character with FW/Movie Mikey's persona without the risk of having Mikey himself look shallow and outdated. The fact they cast Robbie Rist in the role enforces this idea.

As for why Mona Lisa won't return, the role people want her to play is filled out by Alopex in the IDW series and the Nick series won't have her because Ciro has some really weird ideas about girls in cartoons.
