#6 was pretty good IMO, I liked the tidbits they gave about [spoiler=]Parkour and Savate. Also MOTHERFUCKING MOUSERS! I hope Old Hob doesn’t get killed off so soon =(
My fav. line in the issue was Mikey’s “French dude rockin’ French-fu. Makes sense”.
One thing I found interesting was Leo arguing with Don; I don’t think that ever happened in any previous TMNT series, but I think it’s cool that they’re showing conflict among brothers like that[/spoiler]
The last issue was great.
latest TMNT issue
Spoiler
I don’t know why seeing Krang’s body in his new robot suit made me laugh but it did. 
In a good way.
Love what they are doing with the franchise. 
^Oi, spoiler tags dude!
[spoiler=]Yeah the latest issue was great, and Krang’s new look is fantastic and badass. Beats his weird gay-ass robot design from the 80s.
One thing I like though is much like the original comics, everything that happens is batshit weird and out of this world…and I LOVE IT![/SPOILER]
Yeah couldn’t help it lol! It’s on the second page though so I didn’t think it was a big one. Fixed with an edit though thanks!
Someone needs to make an animated feature or graphic novel with this level of awesomeness: http://geektyrant.com/news/2011/9/2/awesomely-hardcore-teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-character-ar.html
Latest issue was good but my favorite part was in the letter column - Donatello Micro next week!!! So happy my favorite brother is getting his spotlight. Can’t wait! Need to remind my comic store to get it, and to get me Mikey’s. But DONNIE!! 
So Bay making a new TMNT movie is happening? His idea for their origin is rather unnecessary IMO. On the one hand, if the Turtles’ origins originally had them as aliens when Eastman and Laird created them back in the 80s, would anyone have an issue with it?
The thing I’m more worried about with Bay making a TMNT movie is that it would have sexual and/or sensual jokes and such…which are totally unneeded.
Just my 5 cents ;3
Great interview with Peter Laird about his thoughts on the upcoming movie and TMNT in general.

Thanks for the link Sano, reading his impressions was quite enlightening and entertaining.
You’re welcome. I don’t have a big issue with the alien thing for the movie but Laird brings up a good point that the origin story changes drastically if they are not created by mistake.
They made Shredder an alien in the recent cartoon. It was fine because we got to see the Mirage Comics Leonardo / Shredder decapitation scene in a PG setting. So I guess for me it depends what the movie does with it.
Oh and yeah TMNT Infestation 2 was dope. A whole lot of Donatello.
Well…Shredder was a 1-issue throw away villain who was revived using worms so…the 2003 cartoon making him utrom isn’t a big deal really, since he a friggin’ badass armor.
Honestly, if the movie has sexual/sensual jokes or scenes, then screw it.
Anyways, TMNT Leo and #9 were terrific, I am loving this series so much, but man
#9
[details=Spoiler]Karai and the MOTHERFRIGGIN’ SHREDDER!
…and did Karai just call him ‘grandfather’? From past issues, Shredder doesn’t look THAT old to be her grandfather so I wonder if he’s immortal?[/details]
Started reading this series about a week ago and I’m up to #4. I love what they’ve done so far with Old Hob and the origin of the turtles.
I also picked up the 4 of the micro series but I’ve still yet to give 'em a read.
TMNT Color Classics #1 was cool. Haven’t read the first issue of Mirage’s TMNT in a long time. I hope they continue with these and go the length of the original series.

Is there a reason why I can’t find #7 at any of my local shops? I’ve been able to find all of them up to #9 except for that one…is it a really good issue or something? I was able to find it online for cover price, though.
I also picked up Color Classics #1 and I liked it a lot. I never read the original Mirage comics so I was really blown away when I read it.
I believe 7 is the first appearance of Krang’s real body so that might be the reason you can’t find it. Then again sometimes local shops just randomly sell out of the same product so who knows.

Wicked! Gonna read it last when I do my catch up tomorrow~
I just found issues 1, 2, and 4 in a 50 cent bin yesterday. They weren’t completely lousy. I actually thought they were fun reads, although fairly simple. Sort of an “Ultimate TMNT” for the modern day, I guess. I get that they’re trying to do something new but a part of me can’t help but compare this new iteration to the Mirage comics, where almost every issue was dense and packed with content. Right now this IDW series just seems like the kind of straightforward action/adventure comic that would be pretty enjoyable if I had a fat chunk of like 20 straight issues to read. For 50 cents a pop, though, I got my money’s worth.
You guys still reading this? Issue 13 was pretty sick and has signs of good stuff to come. I was pretty speechless at the very last panel, and it made the cover for 14 make a lot more sense.
