Spoiler Warning

OK... this is what i've been waiting for. This issue is the closest they've had to a really good TMNT in Vol.4 for such a long time. The whole time I was like "yes...Yes...YES...YES!...YES!!!" As far as I can see they've gone back and started resolving pretty much all of the plot points that have been left hanging, some of them (like the vampires) which have been hanging around for what seems like years. Also good news is the fact that it looks like the Mike in prison thing might be resolved sometime in the new year, judging for Leo's curiosity.

Seeing MechaDon, Gameraph and the vigilante Casey take on the vampires and essentially frighten them into defeat was so incredibly satisfying. It's a shame you don't see more of what happens to them in this issue, but then again, so much happened in this issue compared to previous ones I can't really complain.

Mike's subplot seemed like it was going somewhere but only ended in Mikey getting more beat up and Seri pretending she doesn't know her and we don't have the slightest clue why. This was IMO the most dissapointing part of the issue, mostly because I thought that Mike was going to bust out due to the cover. But this was I suppose only a minor loss.

Shadow's little adventure tailing the rednecks was interesting. Although I never did find Jay likeable at all so I don't really care about what he's doing. The best part is byfar the reintroduction of that wierd alien businessman. Maybe we'll finally know what he was up to... eventually.

The subplot that concerned me the most was Leo's, byfar. Yes! were finally getting resolution for those crazy sword wielding guys that tried to finish off the Foot... Battle Nexus!?

At first I thought the whole Battle Nexus thing was just a nod to the new animated series, but judging from next issue's cover it seems Leo will in fact be travelling to the Battle Nexus. At first I thought "Why? The Battle Nexus is something made pretty much for the new show." But after a bit more contemplation I thought, "Why not? Maybe Leo won't get screwed out of winning this time!" That is if he participates in the beat down festivities after all.

All in all this is possibly the best issue of volume four yet. Or at least the best one in a very long time. It just flows so much better than all the previous issues. Things are actually get done, now that they've finished talking about getting stuff done. I give it a 8/10. It's very good, but no where near as great as let's say... An issue of TMNT from volume 1.
