Is this blog still active? Anyway, some recent stuff's come out that April actually wasn't black in the Mirage comics except for a non-canon guest story (a guy that knows the comics inside and out did his research on the issue). That and the curly hair she had was the popular perm of the 80's. Unfortunately, that just makes the change in the new show look like a bunch of forced diversity...
Unfortonately I havent been able to keep this blog afloat. But Im gonna do my best to keep up with this. Im so sorry for the late reply.
I saw April wasnt black, I did some research myself, so I believe ya. I wasnt to keen on April’s look, Im still trying to wrap my head around it but Ill get over it.
We will just have to see I guess. By the way you can find me @tmntfandom2018 and @mikibaby94 those blogs are where Im most active. My Miki one is where Im at mostly since tmnt 2018 hasnt came out yet. :)
