TMNT: Saturday Morning Adventures Continued #22. Preview & Discussion

The 87 show is it's own unique thing that has it's own style, and the comic, as a continuation, should continue that where it can. If this comic went full Archie, it wouldn't be nearly as fun because it would defeat the point and would be a BAD 87 continuation. But here, we get the best of everything; the 87 interpretation of characters, but with better writing, a bit of real continuity, and free of animation errors. We don't need to pretend the 87 show is flawless, but when the comic is TRYING to be the 87 show we can and should lean into it and join in on the joke.

Plus, it's just objectively funnier if he never takes off his mask, especially in situations where it doesn't make sense that he's wearing it. Like the episode where he became a white collar employee.
