IDW could go back to all red bandanas, maybe when they off Splinter and then future generations of Turtles could DEFINITELY pick up on that.... :Lol:

Going back to red masks would be an insult at this point.

How do you figure it's an insult? It's terrible so many people like something that was changed only because the cartoon people felt kids were too stupid to tell them apart otherwise...

Red evokes thoughts of Mirage, & the IDW series, while still very dope, has strayed very, very far from Mirage. I don't wanna see red masked turtles dealing with Krang or whatever Playmates mutant they decide to bring in. That would only further cement the idea that those sorts of things are all TMNT is or should ever be, as casuals would by extension even associate the original comics with Fred Wolfisms.

Not quite well considering I have autographs from the cast, hand-painted production backgrounds, complete series on DVD, virtually all the toys, walls collaged in posters, a tattoo of them... I'm a bigger fan of the OT than most people. Just 'cause I'm sick of its influence doesn't mean I hate it.

Zaps & I are talking. Move along, son.

Yeah man. For real. I'm the one that doesn't care at all at the Wolfs continued degredation of all further versions of Turtles.

I'd like to see Krang go away, never see or hear "Kraang" again...
Bebop & Rocksteady left naked on some animal planet, forever....
Shredder stay dead for a good, long time...
The creation of a villain or villains that have more substance...
Triceratons.
Utroms more and more... name one Krang but zero focus on him if you must.

Serious tone to the stories... Lets have some focus on the Ninja part, grow them past the Teenage part and stop mutating the masses for fun... Just throw a random two part comic stpryline of a future Raph, alone, grumpy as heck kicking small rodents and grumbling... of Mikey writing or drawing (and maybe mimick some of the current writers/artists lives)... Give Donnie a big invention that changes things but he has to let April or someone else take the credit for it... Leo get more training... Exile for something crazy.

I like linear tales.... but I also like short bits and pieces that don't otherwise add to the long game other than telling a great story. Which is why I dig the randomness of the Mirage tales... Tales of had some great stories, even if not all of them had proper conclusions...

This would be great for another comic incarnation be like this down the line, but I never want to see any of these things happen to IDW continuity. IDW is it's own thing now, Fred Wolf elements and all. It's far more lighthearted and full of hope than mirage, and turning it into Mirage-lite at this juncture would be an insult to both Mirage and IDW.

Nick has already brought over Alopex (though less smol), so I could see her appear in other versions easily. I also think an IDW-based film series should really be the route the next mainstream TMNT films should take, to match the other CBMs in the world. Toad Baron seems like a great idea to pick up for the series, alongside his Den of Delights and the remainder of the Pantheon. The reincarnation angle, Old Hob, the comic's set of mutagen rules...
