And that's kind of my issue with Jennika and the whole over abundance of mutants. I mean I was fine with Slash and the Mutanimals, because the were only a handful of mutants but now it seems like there's going to be a whole lot more coming.

To me, the TMNT being four and only four was... kind of part of who they are, but then again this is coming from someone who tends to favor Mirage and Image more. IDW kind of had that at first, but then they started re-intergrating characters from the Fred Wolf, 4Kids and the Nick series... which I was okay with at first but... I dunno now.

Just... there's too many Turtles, and I think that kind of makes the TMNT less unique. Gotta agree with Sugilita here with that. Well, to be fair, IDW never pretended they weren't going to add more mutants to the mix. The very first scene of the very first issue introduced a brand-new mutant character who is still an active party today, and the inclusion of Null mutants happened quite some time ago.
