Michaelangelo: For Justice and Pizza

Weapon of Choice: Nunchucks,
sometimes tonfas.

Namesake's Landmark Work: The ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, no question.

Mike's a happy kinda turtle. He's the fun loving one, the one always up for a party and some pizza. In fact, as has become part of the cannon, there's little he won't do for a pizza. I think he once ate a live bat for a pizza. Was almost to full to eat the pizza after that.

I'd love to tell you some kind of tale of woe about Mike. A tale where in there's the love of his life, a girl of such beauty (at least for a mutagen changed reptile), and he and she are able to live for a while in peace. This girl, though was hunted. She had dark and sinister powers after her, all because she was the daughter of some ruler from an alternate dimension.

You know how those things go. The daughter gets kindapped and ransomed so that there can be money made for a political uprising in some OTHER kingdom halfway across the multiverse from where this girl and her kingdom are situated.

As generally happens in the tales of woe, somewhere along the way everything goes wrong. The ransom doesn't take place. The kidnappers get angry. The girl ends up dead. Mike then gets really sad, has a pizza, and weeps silently to himself. Tis a sad tale of woe.

And of course, I can't tell you that tale of woe since it never happened. Sounded convincing though, didn't it?

No, seriously, Mike is a happy guy. Hell, even in the dark and brooding Image series, while everyone else was beat, turned crazy, made to lead the foot, made into robots, made to lose limbs... somehow Mike survives unscathed and even is able to find a little love and happiness. It's his gift, I guess. Donnie is smart, Mike finds the happily ever after.
