With all of his brothers carving out new lives and relationships for themselves, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #123 offers readers a Leonardo story as the Splinter Clan‘s leader feels a bit lost, runs into an old friend, and has a night that changes his outlook on things. Leo’s always been my favorite of the Turtles, so I’m happy to see him highlighted here. The unexpected night out with Casey Jones, also feeling a bit left out with Raphael busy elsewhere, turns out to provide a fun single issue with a look into Leo’s mind.
We get a trip to a fight club, an introduction of a character teased earlier, Casey and Leonardo dealing with some street trash, and Leo thinking through finding new connections outside of his family. Not complete without a tie-in to the ongoing story, we also see the return of Old Hob luring away the weasels. What new trouble is he up to?
