all iterations of raphael are lesbian to me. all of them. from mirage to mutant mayhem he's a lesbian throughout it all. none of her relationships with women have been straight. none. he was a lesbian for mona lisa and she was a lesbian for alopex and yep even in archie comics he was lesbian for mezcaal and ninjara. sometimes shes butch sometimes shes femme but raph is always a lesbian and always has been. nothing will prove to me otherwise. raph x casey? well, easy answer there. casey can be transfem or a butch or even a transmasc lesbian. don't even try me. the red of the mask is for the lesbian flag

Happy Valentine's day, please enjoy some good ol' angst because not everyone should have the right to be happy on Valentine's Day.
Honestly, it's up to you guys if you wanna view this as friends/platonic or shipping or both if you ship certain Leosagi but not all. Let's just say it's not a coincidence that the 03 one has red and pink as the background *wink wink*.
And before anyone starts asking questions, yes the first one is Leo. All the turtle's wore red in the mirage comics before they became color coded for the 1987 cartoon. Back then, you'd have to find the difference by looking at what weapons the turtle's had.
I hope I did a good job mimicking all those art styles. Especially Stan Sakai's artsyle that changed during the first issue with Leo vs. the recent.

Issue #9 of the mirage tmnt is “Pre-teenage mutant ninja turtles.” Eastman’s annotations say that they had wanted to “explore the ‘growing-up part’ of the TMNTs’ history.”
So they’re younger and goofier in this issue, but what’s interesting is they haven’t all landed on their signature weapons.
Leo’s only got one sword, Raph is using tonfa, and Mikey has manriki-gusari. Donnie has his staff. JUST LIKE IN RISE!! The show that’s sort of set up as a “pre” tmnt story!!
I imagine the people making Rise did this on purpose. It’s a neat callback!

I don't know. Just read issue 37 of Mirage Comics' TMNT and the painting will make sense. It is what it is.

Looking in the Mirage tag is so funny but I'm genuinely surprised that nobody's shown this yet. It's peak early Mirage where they were still figuring out how to make them emote, it's wonderful.
