Looks like casey's being "haunted" by his father.

Do Lita and the kid ninja's feel like some cutesy kid sidekick add ons to a cartoon show to anyone else? The problem is this is a comic and not a kids cartoon...I have no idea why they added a bunch of cute ninja sidekicks here.
This honestly feels like something a cartoon tries to add to appeal to kids more, but there's no reason for this in a comic book aimed mostly at adults. |

I guess 4 Turtles, 4 sidekicks. Still a stupid idea. What the hell happened to you IDW TMNT? I re-read older issues where they killed Shredder and whatnot and like.... what happened to you?

IDW gave reigns of the series to the Twitter trans furry fanfic writer.

My reaction to all the happy-go-lucky cutesy in this preview: Oh, for f*ck's sake...
Diggin' Casey's development, though. Like father, like son? |

Lita's team just feels like set-up for a children's spinoff or something. Again, feels more like something a cartoon would do setting up cute sidekick characters. It's not really needed for a comic aimed at adults.
I forgot what's supposed to be happening in this issue, doesn't Raphael go after Baxter in this one? |

Gotta love the Raph/Casey interaction. "How DARE you talk about my girlfriend the way guys actually talk about each others' girlfriends? I'm mad at you now!"
Actually, it's only barely realistic, especially from a New Yorker. Switch Casey's line about "You keepin' her in line?" to "Y'pop her butt yet?" and THEN it'd be realistic dialogue.

April is on the run after discovering a scheme with dire consequences for Mutant Town. Meanwhile, the Mutanimals take drastic steps that will put them on a collision course with the TMNT! No mention of Raph at all and the 'Story so far' inside the cover basically says that April is pissed at Baxter and has gone to warn the turtles about his plan for Mutant Town. Raph's stuff might actually be related to Hob/ the Mutanimals as he was involved with them when the bomb went off.

I've been on many a show where the guys booked it to entertain the guys in the back and not the paying customers. Easy trap to fall into.

Not really sure what you mean by “special” other than fans of the current run? I suppose the people not clapping are the “special” ones on this forum?
