The Ninja Turtles’ leader is dispatched to wander the Earth in training and meditation. In the process he saves many lives and proves he possesses one virtue after another, so it’s a shock for the poor amphibian when he gets to the monastery where Master Splinter’s teacher learned his tricks, and he gets pounded. Beaten, humiliated and crushed, he goes out in search of the final virtue he must learn, only to realize even within his family he removed himself from the community. Sometimes you have to leave for no other reason than to be able to come back. Swell art by Dario Brizuela, good story by Murphy, even if the dialogue feels odd at times. Not bad, just… odd.
