All I wanted in the world

You have to wonder if Spike WAS a box turtle.  I mean, look what he mutated into.  When L, R, D & M mutated, it was from their original turtle form into mutated versions, but they still looked like themselves as normal turtles.  Not so with Spike.  I mean, he looks like an alligator snapping turtle to me.  Google one of those babies and cringe because they are fearsome and look fearsome, too.  Plus, they are giants!

This is great art.  They both look sad, but that is probably because they can never go back to the beginning of their relationship when life was simpler and they were true buddies of the heart.
