    Comic Vine - Gregg Katzman Aug 28, 2013

    Everything is heating up this chapter and the next one has the potential for some massive and explosive payoffs. The team continues to make the heroes lovable and there's all kinds of exciting drama building up with the villains. Toss in two cheer-inducing reveals and even more praiseworthy art from Santolouco/Pattinson, and this is yet another excellent chapter of the book's first big event. At this rate, there's no denying "City Fall" could become one of the best TMNT stories. If I wore a hat, I'd tip it to the people over at IDW for creating this. But I don't have a hat, so hopefully this 5-star rating will express my appreciation just as well. Read Full Review

    Nerds On The Rocks - Josh Raj Aug 28, 2013

    Overall, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #25 is a bridge issue that really does not feel like it is just filling space. The art is great with the exception of the turtles, their round heads look odd. Many turtle fans will be excited to see what happens on the final page of the issue. This story has been great and hopefully the quality will continue going forward. Read Full Review

    Though secure in your knowledge that some endings simply have to happen, at least you can still enjoy the fact that the road has plenty of twists and turns left in it"and it'll be plenty scenic, too. Read Full Review

    Unleash The Fanboy - Harrison Rawdin Aug 28, 2013

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #25 continues to tell the story of City Fall while maintaining a strong presence within the greater trials and tribulations of the mean green fighting machines. Through the potent storytelling and the strong grasp of it's own soul this issue certainly comes recommended. Read Full Review

    Razorfine - Alan Rapp Sep 5, 2013

    With the promise of the addition of Rocksteady and Bebop, and more of Alopex and Karai, the full roster is filling out nicely. My only real complaint with the comic is the inconsistent art from artist Mateus Santolouco whose style is at time distracting. Worth a look. Read Full Review

    We move from point to point, letting Santolouco stir the pot by showing the desperation of the Turtles and Leonardo's inner struggles in another strong issue that sets up future fights to come. Read Full Review

    Casey Jones' dad has seemingly had enough of being seen as an alcoholic lowlife, but exactly what he plans to do about it remains to be seen. Will he avenge Casey's injury? Further punish him for his insolence? His sudden breaking point was mentioned almost as an aside, although I can definitely see it coming into play in a major way soon. Read Full Review
