With this new #1 they Modernize the Origin a little bit, and introduce April O'Niel, Casey Jones, and Baxter Stockman. I'm a Big fan of the Old school Ninja Turtles. When I heard that Kevin Eastman was to be heavily involved with the new series by IDW, I jumped at the chance to buy it! Let me tell you, they did not disappoint.

The action starts off with the turtles and Splinter fighting a mutant cat named Old Hob. Fans will automatically notice that Raphael is missing. Don't worry, he's in it, just not in the beginning. Old Hob escapes while reminding the others of Raphael, who is, apparently homeless. He's stumbling around looking for food. He then comes across Casey Jones, and His Abusive and Drunk father.

As for a first issue, It's pretty easy to get into. Also, If you're expecting a kiddied down Nickelodeon version, Don't Buy it. There's some swearing, and Blood. I only wish it wasn't $3.99!
