I know this question is asked on everyone's user pages, but I've been thinking about the underlying reason for why I like Leonardo over the other Turtles. For me growing up, (with the exception of my little brother who was a baby at the time) I was the baby and I was treated like Michelangelo, taken the least serious and was the least respected. Now that I've been thinking about things, I think I understand why Leonardo was always my favorite. I looked up to him. He was the decision-maker. He had courage. Even in the face of fear, he found a way to overcome it. That's a pretty big deal because when I first started watching TMNT in 1987, I was only 7 years old. For a kid to have someone to look up to when the real world was crazy, was huge.

So my question to all of you is this: We all have our favorite Turtle, but why is it your favorite Turtle?
