TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES
Iāve stated throughout 2022 that my favorite mutant story since 2020 is IDWās Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, spearheaded by the great Sophie Campbell. Itās partly contrarianism against all my loyal X-Heads, but itās also how I feel. TMNT #101 kicked off the āMutant Townā era of Turtles comics, and Sophie Campbellās run during this stretch simply does not miss. While the X-Men are building a mutant nation in the Marvel Universeās Krakoa, the Turtles are helping establish āmutant town,ā but on the more local level the questions, considerations, and explorations are honestly more succinct and engaging. Plus, whether itās Campbell on art or not, Turtles comics simply look fantastic, with Ronda Pattisonās colors ensuring vibrancy and tonal consistency no matter whoās drawing.
