This was going to be soo simple, like...just one layer of color and that was it, but I got carried away. When I finished I wasn't sure if I wanted to put the conversation there but then it wouldn't make scense why Venus is sad .

And of who are they talking about ? OF WE, THE FANS, OF COURSEE!

Mona is trying to cheer up Venus after all the bashing that her character is victim of.

...-o- but Mona wouldn't know about not been liked! , she is soooo beloved by the fandom, amazing what this girl accomplished with just a cool dessing and one episode in the series.

...XD I'm been a little hypocrite drawing something like this, because I also used to hate Venus. I still don't like some things about her, and what the producers were trying to do including her in the series, but some fanwork of others artists here, in deviantart ,have changed my mind a little bit about her. Besides is not like is the girl's fault that the show where she was included sucked so much.

But we, the fans, can make things better for her, like some are already doing ^_^.

...and yeah, I really like how this came out, it has it's mistakes, but whatever. (...D: I forgot the yellow part in Mona's tail, I hope you can forgive me!)

...I write too much in the comments, I know.

Finally, some pro venus work that addresses the hard facts!

I remember not minding Venus when I was younger with my only gripe being she didn't wear like--a bra or anything. I always thought it was weird that they could get away with that,but I wasn't complaining about it either.

She had some really great physical attributes, like her bandana being braided and the use of bicep bands instead of elbow pads. Top that off with her constant confusion of Western culture (calling the Sewers 'the toilet') and lots of mix ups with phrases 'this is cold!' instead of 'cool' or 'we were milked!' instead of 'creamed'.

She had awesome potential, but the backstory of 'oh btw, there was a 5th turtle, lol you guys didn't need to know' was kind of lame and simple. I hope she is reintroduced in the new Nick series with perhaps a better, more original backstory. Mona too!

I personally don't see why people don't like her but I am one to jump into the middle of things so I don't get a lot of what the gee wunners say

I always thought Venus had potential to be a cool character when done right. Shame Peter Laird hates her to the point we could never see that happen. Baffles me more as to why he even likes Bay's idea of making them aliens since that defies what they are in the first place.

I do find it a bit odd that Peter Laird likes the idea of the TMNT being from a race of aliens, since technically, that WOULD probably include Venus...

Poor Venus. She was short lived, but I actually liked her.

I never hated Venus My focus of blame went stait towards Saban but seriously if you are going to give one of the turtles magic powers then give her a spell that would make them human for part of the episode

i remember watching that show when i just was becoming a teen, it had a strange mix of Power Rangers & TMNT 3 feel to it, but i still liked it. i think some people who hate Venus for being a girl turtle are being a little sexist, & those who say her character is bad because of her not knowing American terms should look @ Teen Titans and tell me if that characterization of Starfire doesn't work. great art, and i hope people will be nicer to Venus.

This all the way! Also look to Omi from Xiaolin Showdown! The confusion of english terms and saying is what made those characters interesting and fun!
