I'm so sick of Raph being portrayed as some sort of psychopath.
It's like writers don't even know what to do with him anymore. It's like they write him as "angry, rebel teenager" and that's all we have to know about him. Look, he yells, he grim, he patrools! Never seen that before!
Just look at how he's drawn, sharp teeth, red background, are you fucking serious, what's next, he's gonna kill Jennika because he looked weird at him?
Such a primitive way to write a character. It's not like Mikey is ALWAYS a party dude, he's being written different ways during the history. He likes cats, he's very kind soul, he tries to find himself, at some point he even goes in the different direction and starts living with Mutanimals etc etc. But Raph... always the same, and it's becoming even worse.
