Doubles are inevitable and sometimes they are upgrades, and then you've got the one to give in trade or be a display copy! What better than a Space Usagi issue, and or, some others eventually that take to heart the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and sometimes that means A Ninja Kicking Rabbit, get you some! Whether it be the animated new series or the classic cartoon? We need Usagi Yojimbo to keep us making the ninja expertise with our nostalgia for our kids, a kind of bonding for sure!
The 9.8 copy of an issue is in my TMNT Vol 1 set, as it should be with the other showcase gallery, but with doubles, it can give us an opportunity to showcase copies that were worthy of being picked up twice!
Sometimes it take two to get it right, but when in the case of "these Turtles" and the mutant ooze, you then need to double down again to four. Add in mentors and the team is complete, even with some outsiders joining the fray. It is good to have an "in" with the media, which worked well with comics like Spider-man, but these TMNT are also wanting to lay low. Save the now different color bandana they are common enough between them to be able to switch up roles to maintain efficiency or one would think, but their personalities are true to form with banter between them that makes for a kind of "turtle soup" with what tactics play out in the end. Brothers rib each other, and a turtle with some oozing personas are no different, especially those of the teenage mind.
