Gleefully loud and eye-popping, TMNT: Bebop & Rocksteady Hit The Road #4 delivers a hilariously over-the-top adventure with some wrapped twists and turns! Rocksteady and Bebop steal the spotlight from the Teenage Mutant Nina Turtles as they trail off onto a road trip full of carnage and mayhem.

Bebop and Rocksteady’s trail of destruction has got them a lot of attention… including from the government who’s sending an army to stop them!

Here are 5 reasons why you should get TMNT: Bebop & Rocksteady Hit The Road #4:

5) What Happened Before…

In the first issue, Bebop and Rocksteady just want one thing; they want to go home. On their road trip to New York, Bebop and Rocksteady didn’t realize the government was chasing after them, with Special Agent Reavenwood leading the troops. The madcap duo then became the henchmen for Savanti Romero.

4) The Writing!

Writers Ben Bates and Dustin Weaver sideline Bebop and Rocksteady, focusing more on the antagonist, Special Agent Reavenwood.  A freak herself, Reavenwood is a failed experiment who has embraced her mutation. Letterer Shawn Lee highlights the humor behind Reavenwood’s tough-talking dialogue, as she over-analyzes her enemies.

3) The Artwork!

As I mentioned before, artist Ben Bates illustrates Reavenwood with a bulky size and small head. She looks like a football quarterback who took one too many roids. In her solo issue, she is presented as an inquisitive detective, desperately searching for every clue.

2) The Colors!

Colorist Brittany Peer dips some eye-popping hues on Reavenwood’s outfit. In a pitch black suit, Reavenwood wears a purple shirt with matching eye shadow. She has long blonde hair with some black streaks.

1) A Hilarious Read!

While retelling the story from a different perspective, TMNT: Bebop & Rocksteady Hit The Road #4 delivers the action and comedy in all its glory! I can’t wait to see Reavenwood’s confrontation with Bebop and Rocksteady!
