I just have to start out and say, this book is so much fun! It makes me feel like a kid again. While the other TMNT books are tackling things that are a little heavier, this one has stayed light and exciting.
In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Dimension X, the Turtles are rounding up a few reluctant witnesses for the Trial of Krang. They are having to travel to the far corners of Dimension X to accomplish this, and its just been a fun little jaunt for us.
