Lee, also called Lee the Eel, is a character appearing in the Tales of the TMNT. She is a member of the East River Three.
History[]
A goldfish, eel, and seahorse lived in the East River with other sea life, all around a giant pearl nestled in an oyster shell. They considered it their home, until the sky fell. Superfly, tangled in the wires of his assimilator, falls into the water. Goldfin becomes caught in a vent of the assimilator, and both Lee and Mustang Sally try to pull him loose. When the assimilator hits the bottom of the river, the jolt helps free Goldfin, but it also sets off the assimilator. Superfly doubly mutated, but the fallout from the assimilator also mutated the three partners. Splinter and April Fight a Goldfish
Trivia[]
- Lee's jaws and overall shape resembles a moray eel, which are not "electric".
- Electric eels live in South America and, despite their name, are more closely related to catfish than eels.
