This year's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Annual is a light and overpriced read. While not a poor book, it overall lacks a story with enough depth or craftsmanship to justify its $3.00 price jump.

Yea, this is a friggin great issue.
Very simple story, using maybe ideas we've seen before, maybe a little bit of Last Ronin vibes, but the execution is so, so good. I already wanna see more of this new future guy, he seems like he's been through a lot.
Using Santos as the artists means you're getting some of the slickest anime esque action around and it works well for this book.
Only thing keeping this from being a 10 is that some of the premise is a little too similar to Last Ronin.
