Let's compare Raphael's Girlfriends of all the series. - Page 3

*TigerClaw* · 02-08-2019, 05:51 PM

Raph is the only Turtle of the group to have a Girlfriend throughout all incarnations of TMNT. I wonder if the Raph from Rise will get a girlfriend in that too.

And he's only 15–16 something.

It's a few seasons in, so technically he might be an adult-teen at that point. (Even though in that case April and Irma's age group is still out of his league.)

While they don't seem to age or ever acknowledge it, by the time Zach comes around in the same season 3 they treat him like a kid, not a similarly aged a peer. Carter though late in the series is treated more like a peer. (Though the Turtles could technically be some years older than him.)

Zach maybe lied when he said he was 13 (almost 14)?

Zach has so much untapped potential as a villain that it's not even funny.

Because he found the turtles' lair?

~~Leo656~~ · 02-09-2019, 02:53 PM

Because he was once their trusted ally, privy to literally all of their secrets, and has since all but been abandoned by both them and history.

There's some great meta-fictional stuff to play with there. Much more interesting than having them run into him in his mid-20s, still being "friends", and trying to have awkward catching-up conversation after running into each other at Starbucks.

*IndigoErth* · 02-09-2019, 03:01 PM

Zach, the next PD movie villain. You abandoned me, now I want revenge. Would have been far more interesting than Eric Sachs.

Or, throw a twist in there... Zach becomes Rat King, similar to '87 version in look and general vibe. He tried to live in the sewers like the Turtles, wanting to be like them, and started playing with rats in hopes to create his own rat sensei, but mostly he just went nuts.

You just blew my MIND. Have an Iron Sheik gif, my treat. You've earned this.

Camel Clutch on a CAMEL. That just ripped a hole in the Space-Time Continuum!

Or let Zach be abandoned by the turtles. To get revenge, he joins the Rat King and becomes the Rat Prince, ready to take over when the Rat King dies.

This is great. Now all we need is some bozo with $100 million and absolutely zero standards, and we're runnin' this thing.

I'm happy if they leave Zach alone and don't contrive a reason to turn him into a villain because fans who outgrew him don't like him any more.

~~Leo656~~ · 02-09-2019, 07:31 PM

When did I say I didn't like him? I'm the only one trying to get him booked at all!

Sometimes ya gotta make a heel turn to freshen up your character. Especially if you want that Last Big Payday.

*Original TMNT Cartoon Fan* · 02-10-2019, 08:09 AM

In the Archie comics, you also had Michelangelo and Oyuki Mashimi as well as April O'Neil and Chu Hsi (Warrior Dragon).

~~Leo656~~ · 02-10-2019, 09:05 AM

Good call. I wonder what Oyuki would be up to now, sometimes.

She became a correspondent some years into the future.

Geez, man, that's some Scrappy Doo level $hit there.

Yes and you know that went down well with fans for that movie.

With Lotus Blossom you could sure see it that way, Karai however...

Karai never completely turned back human, she always remained a mutant.

*IndigoErth* · 04-04-2019, 08:52 PM

Even then he didn't have the hots for the snake form, just when she looked like her normal self. Esp when she got it under control and could totally look like herself again.
