i.............. i don't know what to say about this
like they basically ruined shredder by the way they should of really killed him off
like making him turn good was still dumb but having him go turn evil again after everything would be very odd if you know what i mean

if they wanted shredder but evil again they should of just make a clone of him as that had happen before in the past if you know what i mean

Tatoruzu

MrSlash Yeah, I don't really like his "good guy" arc tbh

MrSlash

but having him go evil again would still be very odd after everything
like if they wanted an evil shredder again that's fine just make a clone of him that's all and kill off the OG one for good this time
that would of been a smart move in my opinion

I never finished the IDW run, so I can’t really say much. Based off looks, it looks pretty cool.

Kinda shocked they are bringing him back to being Shredder considering how cringe uncle he was acting during the Sophie run. Didn't finish that run but he was really out of character from the one appearance I saw him.

If anything I thought they would just unfreeze Ch'Rell and put him in a Saki suit if they needed a back to basics evil Shredder he seems like a good get out jail free card.

I think some things should be undone LOL

But we'll have to see how it pans out. Maybe it is a faithful continuation of IDW Shredder's character arc. I'm actually expecting that. I don't see any indication that this is Shredder returning to his turtle-hating days or whatever.

Or if you're talking about the reversal of Shredder's soft/kind uncle vibe, that was already kinda undone in the Armageddon Game anyway.

Tatoruzu But we'll have to see how it pans out.

that's the crux of it. it comics this is what they do. we just gotta wait and see if something cool comes out of it. ive only ever heard good things about dan watters.

If he does go back as a villain, I can imagine this is a big slap in the face to Tom Walz since he actually wrote some cringe poem about how good is redemption. But it's doesn't matter, I just care if the turtles finally aceept kill the bad guys. Like what Mark Grayson said "Being a Hero is bullshit". Let Leo cut off Karai's head becuase she repeated threats to his family and friends. Let Donnie kill B&R to get the justice he deserves.

LMAO I don't think I've see that poem before.

Let Leo cut off Karai's head because she repeated threats to his family and friends. Let Donnie kill B&R to get the justice he deserves.

There is a 0% chance of that happening in the main IDW run. Paramount would never let that slide
