The revamped Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series begins and continues with each issue featuring a lone turtle brother. This third chapter focuses on Leonardo, a leader who is forced to sit quietly and reflect before traveling to the Ganges and unwittingly attracting the wrong kind of attention.
This is another great issue, and Jason Aaron’s approach of slowing down the pace and focusing on one brother per issue gives us some great insight into the characters.
Once the action gets serious, it gets even more shocking, especially in the shocking climax that leads to the next Donatello issue.
Cliff Chiang’s art is great and his use of color is great. Leonardo’s trademark blue bandana color in particular seems to permeate strongly into the panels of both the narration box and the artwork itself.
So far, this is a very good start to the new TMNT series, one that promises to do things a little differently and move the decades-long legend of the Turtles into the background a bit. Freed from the reliance on vast characters and intricately intertwined story threads, it’s great to see the brothers get a chance to breathe and let their different characteristics shine.
