I don't. I could care less if the Turtles fight other humans, though I'm sure they will now that Karai has been confirmed. And we know they'll keep fighting the Foot and the PDs, who technically are part of a gang anyway. We don't really need mobsters this time around.

Yeah, but why should they have to this time around? Remember, this is a new show with new things. I think having the PDs and the Foot are enough. Plus, you have Karai, Shredder, and even Baxter to fight the Turtles. We don't need mobsters.

No offense, but are you autistic? I'm not trying to be mean or anything. Just curious.

You seem to overreact based on posts in the forum. I'd like to know why.

If you notice the only post I attack are yours since they make no sense. And if you notice, I'm not the only who gets on what you post.

The mob really has no reason to get involved. Their fight is mostly against a street gang... and a ninja clan and alien robot army the rest of the real world knows nothing about. Unless the Turtles start fighting regular crime and take down some big time drug dealers or whatever, the mob has no real reason to even know the Turtles exist.

I could care less if the turtles fought gangsters and normal humans, because, they're, for the most part, boring. I don't mind the purple dragons though.

Instead of seeing the Turtles face endless mutants, I'd prefer some more human characters thrown in the mix.

I hope we at least get Hun.

I wouldn't mind Hun, but why have Hun when you have Dogpound, he basically is the new Hun.

I'd rather have more non-humans so we are more likely to get toys of them, don't need a toy of random gangster guy.

So no no Gangsters, it's kind of played out as well.

The turtles fight plenty of humans. They just suck at fighting, and only take a hit or two to knock out.

That's why it sucks so bad to see Bradford and Xever mutated, because they were the only formidable human regulars. If the mutants used martial arts, I wouldn't be bothered so much. But it's less fun to watch a ninja fight a monster, in my opinion.

If it were up to me, the Foot ninjas would be a few formidable fighters (maybe even few enough to name), instead of an endless supply of worthless goobers. Like what if Shredder had his own band of four skilled pupils that were an even match for the turtles?

But only if he made them dress like those 4 guys he dressed up as evil turtles in the fw cartoon.

So they could know their enemy by being there enemy ha.

No they don't, unless you consider the Foot Clan mobsters.

In mean in the series history:

Mirage: There have always been tons of human gangsters and criminals they've faced over the years. Many in Tales and the Image series especially.

Original toon: Big Louie, Pinky Mcfingers, Don Tortelli, etc.

4kids: That mob boss guy from, "Long Raph and cub," he came back during the City at War arc.

Archie: The Dog Star gang

IDW: We're seeing the start of more urban gang war in the series, especially with the Savate Ninja's.


I'm sure Nick will have a mob boss eventually.
