Wild Things : As the TMNT stand on the roof of the building that Cudley the Cowlick dropped them off on, they are assaulted by a bizarre flying bat creature! We're introduced to two new characters, the bat man named Wing Nut and his faithful sidekick, a mosquito-like being called Screwloose. Wing Nut was trying to break the skylight windows on the building that the Turtles are standing on, but he hit Raph in the head with a rock by accident.

With their story told, Wing Nut makes his escape... but is quickly gobbled up by Cudley the Cowlick! When Cudley brought the...
