    I really wish I could say more about this issue, but you just need to go out and get it. If you don't like cool action sequences and superb drama, then at least give it a shot for another take on April's rockin' new hairdo. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Therapy - Cody "The Thorverine" Ferrell Apr 23, 2014

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles continues to be one of those books you have to pay attention to month in and month out. City Fall got a lot of people talking, but what comes next seems to be the main event. Read Full Review

    All in all this is a good start to get into the series. For new readers the last two story arcs and latest mini-series are mentioned that readers won't feel lost in what's going on. Casey fans are going to love this issue as this is more of a Casey story. For TMNT fans out there, who doesn't love a good Casey story every now and then?It's a well made comic and helps eases readers, especially TMNT fans into the comic series. Read Full Review

    IGN - Jesse Schedeen Apr 24, 2014

    Santolouco's art was one of the highlights of the "City Fall" arc. While this script is relatively quieter and doesn't really push his action-based storytelling to the same degree, his moody environments and expressive, stylish character designs are as eye-catching as ever. It's very good to have Santolouco back in the saddle even as the Turtles return to their home turf. Read Full Review

    Comics: The Gathering - louis whiteford Apr 24, 2014

    Issue 33 was some pretty good stuff. I wouldn’t recommend newcomers to start here, it’s a pretty dense jumping on point, but I would recommend the newcomers to get caught up. Teenage Mutant Nijna Turtles is a great comic right now, and it’d be a shame for someone to miss out on what might be the best incarnation this series has ever had. Read Full Review

    Comic Vine - Gregg Katzman Apr 23, 2014

    I'll be blunt: this is an issue every Ninja Turtles fan should pick up. Yes, it would be preferred if you could read the last two arcs first, but not everyone can afford that luxury and enough is done here to make this pretty new reader friendly. The team's back together and this issue delivers a whole lot of build-up. You can feel the tension rising and just enough is delivered to give you little teasers of what's to come. Plus, the shift to focusing on Casey gives the book a nice amount of heart and hopefully this is something that'll become a big factor as the story moves forward. To top it all off, artist Mateus Santolouco is back on the book, and the first scene should help you understand why I and so many others adore his work. This isn't a book that simply moves from one story to the next one without any repercussions. Everything this team has endured is adding up and it certainly shows in this issue. Seriously, don't miss out on this, TMNT fans. Read Full Review
