Who is your favorite Ninja Turtle?

[Mozenrath]

Simple enough question. If you like April, Casey, etc, most, fair enough, but I am keeping it to ninja turtles for the poll.

I've always been partial to Raphael, though I lament that 1990 TMNT may have done his arc TOO well. It means we keep on getting that story again and again, making it seem like that's all Raph has going for him. (Though, he's not just the angry guy. The movie did do a good job of including the Rob Paulsen wise-ass streak, too, something often lost in other adaptations)

I think that IDW's Ninja Turtle comics have been great for many things, but their handling of Raphael has been one of their best qualities, between expanding on his relationship to Splinter, his friendship with Casey, etc. He's not just the angry guy, Donny's not just the smart one, Leo's not the "boring leader", and Mikey's got more going on than just being fun-loving.

I like all of them, though, when done well. How about you folks?

The same Turtle since I was a kid, Mikey

[mizerable]

Leonardo or Michelangelo... although I also liked Donatello.

I never cared for Raphael, in fact everyone I knew when I was a kid thought he was usually the lamest. Focusing on him as a brooding asshole in later years didn't help matters either. Plus he sucked to play as in the NES game. f*** Raph.

Raph is the correct answer that all winners pick
Mike and Donny are incorrect but still acceptable
Leo is for losers

[Hit Girl]

Donatello

[Captain Stud Muffin (BLM)]

Raphael of course

Angry and a smart ass tho he's had some really good story lines

[Oh Cry Me a Screwball]

Donatello was my favorite in Turtles in Time.

[Malcolm]

Raphael. Sarcastic 87 Raph to be exact. Not the broody Wolverine wannabes(especially not the 2k3 sourpuss), except 2012 Raph.

Leo was always my favorite as a kid.

[BayleyTiffyCodyCenaJudyHopps]

I don't dislike any turtle, but Leonardo has gradually become my favorite over the years. When I was a kid it was Donatello.

[Mighty Attack Tribble]

Leo. He had twin swords, for crying out loud!

[BayleyTiffyCodyCenaJudyHopps]

Also, shoutout to Ninjara, Jaguar and Man Ray from the Archie TMNT comic. The Mutanimals series was my shit.

[The Unconquered Sun]

Pizza!

[YAKMAN is ICHIBAN]

I had Leonardo stuff as a kid and named my first pet, a hamster, Leonardo.

So, Leonardo. As a nerd I do have a strong soft spot though for Donatello.

[Hypnosis]

Donatello.

[Kevin Hamilton]

Correct answer is Donatello

[Deleted]

As a kid it was Michaelangelo but he's a bit of a douche to be honest, so Donatello now.

[Milkman Norm]

I was Don one year for Halloween.

I have been a Raph man since 1989. I used to throw hands over who go to be Raph.
