ID from alt: Three of the turtles in April's apartment, they are carving pumpkins. One finished with his, sits on the couch (wearing red blue 3D glasses, i think), and says "Halloween is such a blast." One is still carving his pumpkin, and the other holds his up, grinning and says "YEAH! The only night of the year we can be seen in public!" END ID]
i dont know whats up with the glasses.... they're all so cute tho

[ID from alt: The turtles in April's second hand store. Three of them walking in to check on the third. Who is stuck under a books case. He wears a skull cap style mask. The one wearing glasses says "We heard the noise- what happened?" Another helps lift the bookcase and says "Did Klunk do this?" And the one under it says "Three guys... two got away!" END ID]
I think the hood mask is either a... costume? its probably not a inking error cause. its in multiple panels.... maybe its like... wearing old clothes from your childhood as cozy clothes...
Tumblr media
ID from alt: All four turtles geared up and striking menacing poses. Mike says "Look, friend, we don't want any trouble..." Don on point says "Just pay us the two dollars for the figure and we'll leave. Leo is silent with his hands on his hips. Raph says "Two dollars! Two dollars!!" END ID]
now ofc we the reader know its a mystic statute that must be stolen to unlock its magic. they think someone paid some folks (one who they saw die [again the reader knows its from poison]) to rob their friend for an item that runs you the same as this here comic would....
Tumblr media
ID from alt: A cop speaks to the turtles while looking at a clip board. He says "O.K. You kids run along now and continue your trick or treating!". The one on point has a almost 3 shaped mouth and says "Yea... er ...Yes Officer." The two others that can be seen in detail have smirks. END ID]
just adorableeeeee. honestly.
