But were getting what looks like rehashed stories. The upcoming issues sound very much like what happened in Mirage and adapted by the first movie and 4kids series.

Do we really need to see the Mirage stuff rehashed a third time? I'd like to see some stuff taken from it, but not everything.

Do we really need any stuff rehashed? Even with the new twists did we really need an origin or setting up the basics of Mousers and Foot ninja if we're essentialy leading to the same status quo that we've seen throughout every version.

I'd say the vast majority of people who would be inclined to pick up a TMNT book from IDW would have experienced these stories before in one form or another so you could argue we're the only audience that doesn't need it.
