Should Leatherhead be evil or good?

Personally, I sorta lean towards a more evil Leatherhead or somewhere in the middle. I'm not the most knowledgeable on the OC, but what intrigued me about its depiction was that Leatherhead was just a pure villain instead of an ally to the Turtles.

Mirage/ Image Leatherhead either tended to be in the middle or an enemy on occasion (Tales vol 2#50 or TMNT vol 3 #18) though, one of these he was brainwashed.

The 03 & 12 cartoon incarnations basically were the same character, except that the 2012 incarnation was trying to escape from the Kraang/ Dimension X this time instead of wanting to transport to the alien dimension.

I have no knowledge on the IDW incarnation.

Honestly, I like Leatherhead best when he's a victim of circumstances beyond his control; whether it's struggling with his mutation or the loss of his "family" in the Utroms. He acts as a nice foil to the turtles and shows the dark side of mutation.

My favorite direction for Leatherhead or any character in his archetype is a person trying so hard to be good, only to have his attempts foiled by the inherent rage and violent instincts within him. As if his conscious desires a normalcy that his subconscious consistently denies him of it. Think Merkava from Undernight In-Birth as an example.

it would kinda cool to see Leather head tring to be good

i always prefer him as a good guy because leatherhead never was a bad guy in the original mirage comics

the 2003 and 2012 are the best versions of him
