While Leonardo and the Foot bring the fight to the Savate ninjas, the other Turtles call upon all of their allies to prepare for War. City Fall continues to escalate when Splinter crosses a line by helping Old Hob get his revenge!
The pace slows down a bit when we're with the "good" turtles and understandably so. This allows the storyline to expand even more and with all of these factors shuffling around, you can really feel the conflict is reaching a boiling point. Meanwhile, the slower pacing with some individuals is countered by some legitimately exhilarating action scenes that you simply cannot miss. Dark Leo, Splinter, Shredder... they all get some time to show off how talented they really are and it's downright awesome. To make matters even better, this is all presented with some truly praiseworthy artwork. 'City Fall,' can you do no wrong?! Read Full Review
Overall, TMNT is back and this story will hopefully get more attention and people wanting to see this story on a big screen. It is one that needs to happen. The current creative team is doing a fantastic job in telling fun exciting stories, and as readers we should enjoy the ride. Read Full Review
Overall if you call yourself a turtles fan then read. Start reading this series as it will not let you down. Month to month IDW's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series can only deliver. It hasn't really had a bad issue that will take you off of the series which is impressive. If there is one book you should read it's IDW's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Read Full Review
As the calm before the storm, the issue accomplishes much of its preparations for next month's blow-out, though it short-shrifts certain characters and storylines in the process. Read Full Review
City Fall continues to please. Read Full Review
Things are certainly looking bleak for our heroes as Leonardo (still struggling a bit against Kitsune‘s brainwashing) continues to help Shredder with his master plan. However, it appears Karai (perhaps with the assistance of Alopex) may have plans of her own. Worth a look. Read Full Review
Teenage Mutant Jinja Turtles #26 is an outstanding issue that stumbles only slightly on the road toward what should be an engaging follow-up next month. Recommended. Read Full Review
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles continues to impress. With this kind of writing, there is no limit to where it can go. Read Full Review
I think I was most surprised by Splinter here. This iteration has a flawed splinter who is not so perfect and I love it. Again with the strong dialogue that breathes life and individuality as well as a comforting familiarity Into these turtles.
