I agree with the inclusion of Mona Lizard--I mean, Lisa. *cough* It just feel that in a universe so filled with only male mutants (and April being somewhat bland as character lately, and Karai disappearing, and Irma being... still recovering from that...) there's a real severe lack of ...the other gender.

I'd have Mona Lisa included rather than Venus, but only because I want to see Raph in *that* situation. (They could redeeme Venus and that would be nice... but not seeing her as a girl turtle. It would need to do something else. Also, I'm going to go all shipper craze here but... Karai was Leo's romantic interest, and if so, Venus would be, what, Mikey's? Can't say I'm a fan of Alopex, not for this story. Anyways.) I think Raph in love would be a sight worth seeing. Though I agree with another user here: it would be nice if they don't limit Mona to a love-interest role, and give her a nice spin and variation to her origins story.

Speaking of which, I was actually going to ask people here about good fanfics introducing Mona in the 2012 universe. The idea just grew too much on me, got the creative juice flowing. Now I want to know who else is writing something like that, and their take on the subject. (Fanfiction.net doesn't even put Mona Lisa as tag character....)

I would not mind Venus still being a turtle if she were to return.

And I would rather have both Mona Lisa and Venus make a comeback instead of just one of them.
