Look, I know giant walking and talking dinosaurs discussing peace treaties with the alien brain-looking creatures does not sound super intriguing, but trust me, it is great. Paul Allor wrote a fantastic two-part story that will have definite repercussions in the TMNT Universe as a whole. With some great artwork by Mark Torres and Ronda Pattison, this has been a wonderful little tale of politics. The backup story in this issue is good, nothing crazy. but nice little story with some fun art. Read Full Review

this story was a nice surprise. it had me in suspense till the end, and really utilized Donatello as a character very nicely.
there was even a pretty shocking twist towards the end and set-up a nice ambiguous conclusion between the Tricertons and Utroms.
Paul Allor did more with this 2 issue arc than Tom Waltz does within a 4 to 5 issue arc of the main series.

interesting Back-up with Leatherhead. it was pretty much just to catch us up with where he's at both physically and emotionally.
