Possible easter egg on cover 14-B ?

Hey everyone I was looking at the cover for 14 and noticed on top of splinter that it says Henson St

Anyone think this is referring to Jim Henson (Muppets, Sesame STREET etc)

Who also did the animatronics and puppetry in the first 2 live action movies?

Here is the cover in question

Is that a reference to anything? If so I'm not in on it lol

Now that I look at it, it seems hard to believe it wouldn't be a reference

I meant with any resemblance or connection to the the ninja turtles... Obviously I have heard of the expression you break it you buy it.

It might be less of a reference and more of a subliminal message to shell out your $3.99 for this comic!

I don't know about the best, but it's definitely one of them! I think it's one of the best TMNT covers ever! Only thing is I'm not a huge fan of Kevin's current Splinter, with the narrower face. But that's definitely a minor complaint. I dig the new patterns on his robe though.

I agree with Matches 100%. One of the raddest, but not #1. I agree on Splinter too, which is why when I commissioned him I specified a profile shot, haha.
