As a dedicated fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) comics by IDW, I was deeply saddened when Raphael and Alopex, my favorite couple, broke up. Their relationship was not just a subplot; it was a reflection of my own personal love story. Just like them, my boyfriend lives far away in the UK, but our love for each other transcends distance.

Raphael and Alopex were more than just characters on paper; they were symbols of hope for many fans who found solace in their unique bond. Their breakup left us heartbroken as we had grown to adore their perfect mutant couple dynamic.

Alopex's departure from the series after TMNT allied with Shredder has left a void that cannot be filled by any other character. We understand that there are hints at them rekindling their relationship later in the Armageddon Game storyline but waiting is not an option for us.

We urge you to bring back this beloved couple sooner rather than later - before the series ends or once it gets relaunched in July. This is crucial not only for continuity but also to honor Alopex's character development throughout her journey with Raphael.

We believe that every character deserves their happy ending - and Alopex deserves her Ralphie back. Please consider our plea as we sign this petition out of love and respect for these iconic characters who have touched our hearts deeply.
