Anyone notice that the manager of the (wish it was still S-Mart) store Ash works at is the same manager from the comics? Looks like he's going to be a deadite too, which is also in line with the comics. Awesome.
They already have Yondu from the original team. It would be cool to see another original Guardian in the movie, even if she is a supporting character like Yondu, and not a part of the official team. I actually am one of the few who do NOT want the roster to increase, and would rather the movie focus and develop the already awesome cast.
@tparks: I guess so, like cloaking tech instead of outright phasing and maybe invisibility tech instead. I expect they'll keep them stealing and selling high tech to criminals albeit in a contemporary environment. IDW have been good with the 80s fan service to Bebop and Rocksteady so there's plenty of reasons to think they'll be willing to give equal fan service to the 4Kids cartoon fans. I'm looking forward to The Pantheon getting involved more in the TMNT world myself given what the Casey and April mini series showed of them.
I'm looking forward to the Pantheon finally paying off in the story too. It will be nice to have some demon fodder that the turtles can actually kill without it being an out of character morals thing for them also. It will make for some nice action scenes.
I have to say though, that the Casey/April micro-series was by far my last favorite thing IDW has done with the turtles so far. It just seemed like nothing really happened for four issues, until the last two pages. Plus, if Casey is a star of a comic, I feel like he has to wear a mask, and kick at least a little random thug @ss, but he never even put the mask on.
@lvenger: What do you think of he Jammers being brought to IDW? I'm sure there will be some minor differences to the characters to fit the story, like IDW's done with all the other characters brought to the story, but so far I think they've done a great job of giving just enough fan service that most people don't care anyways. You have similar expectations?
@lvenger: Oh ya. Don't take my comment as a complaint. I'm very excited for Mikey's turn in the spotlight. Seeing the overly positive, always happy, most innocent, and the one brother to always step up when someone needs to help keep the peace in the family, and arguably the most loyal turtle to his brothers turning his back on what his family now stands for, is going to be a very difficult read, but in a good way. I just don't want to be a grown man holding back tears, because of some turtles and a rat. Lol
I feel like this issue is going to make me hold back tears, after the way 50 left off with Mikey, and him not fighting alongside his bros here. Stupid turtles making me feel feelings.
