Whats up with all the negativety? This issue wasn't boring at all, it was really darn good! I guess people didn't like it because it didn't revolve around fighting: there's more to a good story that fighting folks!

I think this issue cointained a genius idea: a shrink who has spent his whole life telling people that strange creatures don't exist is actually confronted by a strange creature and then automatically snaps, thinking that all of the crazy people he's met were all right!

We finally see the story from a turtles point of view, Raph's. I woinder if Leo will narrarate the next ish, since they say he takes center stage in issue #6.

And of course some great writing and awesome artwork, I think this is Lesean's best work yet!

So Evil Turtlebot will be in the comic, I guess I'll just have to get his action figure now And who drew that T4 poster, it was frickin' awesome looking and is obviously wasn't Lesean style.

Also: SPLINTER! We hadn't seen him in this book yet, I really like how Lesean draws him.

I really liked this one, especially the end shot with Raph sitting there in the shadows looking bewlidered by everything that happened.

Splinter's not really there it's what Raph would imagine (or remember) him saying. It's funny when you see Splinter say 'whatever!' could just imagine that now

Actually, I'm wondering...

I know Raph was just imagining Splinter the first time we see him... but was he imagining him again too at the end? Splinter seeemd more 'real' there.

I love that "whatever' bit...

yeah, I saw that Splinter seemed kinda cloudy in the first one, but very sharp in the second one... hmm...

You can't read the scans there? *tsk* j/k!

*clears thraot, squints real hard at monitor* ...no, I don't bring my comics to work...

Splinter: You are beginning to develop ties to the outside world. You and your brothers. But you must NEVER forget who they are... and who you are.

Raph: How could I? We're never allowed to forget... we are ninja. We hide in shadow.

Splinter: No, my son, we do not HIDE within. We live in shadow. We are of it. It nurtures and protects us, as the sunlight does the surface walkers.

Raph: But... Master Splinter, don't you ever want something else, something MORE than that?

Splinter: Of course I don't, Raphael. *next frame* That's your job.


*Splinter walks away, to let Raph think about it.*

hey thanx guys! i'm glad you've enjoyed it over all! peter davids focusing on fleshing out the turtles a lot more, similar to the old series....

so expect intriging, thoughtful stories like these in the future from time to time...and the turtlenater promo...you'll just have to wait for issue #8 for that lovely arc with a special guest...and what a surprise from a speacial guest it is!

take care!

I have to say I really liked the issue. And I do like the idea of the turtles being fleshed out. They have been 15 years old with the same personalities for well over a decade. so it will be nice to see the charcters gain depth.

I really like the insight that was given for Raphael's personality and thought process in this one. As well as the conversation between Splinter and Raphael at the end.


Of course the art was incredible as always. and I can't wait until the next issue. and issue 8.. now my curiosity is all peaked n stuff. *hehs*
