And if you tick them off or happen to be on the opposing side... well, that's when you find out why the trope is called "Affably ''Evil''."
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Except for a short time when they've had a falling-out in the ''Bebop and Rocksteady Destroy Everything'' mini-series, they're always together.
* ThoseTwoBadGuys: The clearest example of this trope in the comic.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: They're almost identical to their original cartoon counterparts, with one very important distinction: The original Bebop and Rocksteady were pretty much harmless bumblers. ''This'' incarnation of Bebop and Rocksteady are ''extremely dangerous and lethal'' bumblers.
* AffablyEvil: They're pretty easygoing for the most part, mainly just wanting to have fun. Unforunately their idea of "fun" tends to involve a lot of violence and destruction.

* BlackAndRedAndEvilAllOver: This incarnation of the Shredder wears a much more practical black dougi beneath his bladed gauntlets and boots, with a red sash for a belt. When he's feeling ornate, he'll accentuate this motif with a blood-red cape.

** EmpoweredBadassNormal: It's been implied in issue #71 that Kitsune, via her rituals involving purified mutagen, were meant to resurrect him as something ''much'' stronger than a mere mortal. [[spoiler: All the better for her eventual plan to use Shredder as a vessel for her father, a dragon.]]

* HiddenDepths: Despite his ruthlessness, and extremely strict treatment of any minions who fail him, it's implied that Shredder ''is'' secretly hard on Karai in order to encourage her to improve, and genuinely loves Kitsune. [[spoiler: He confirms both of these things before he commits seppuku.]]
* MarathonBoss: In his FinalBattle with Splinter and the Turtles in issue 50, he manages to handily defeat all four of the latter - though not without taking some hard blows along the way - before dueling the former on equal footing. All in one match-up. [[spoiler: Though it should be noted that the turtles were likewise worn out from their fight with Shredder's lieutenants.]]

* AintTooProudToBeg: In issue 50, she calls out for help when [[spoiler: Leonardo slashes her wings off, leaving her grounded.]]
* [[ArrogantKungFuGuy Arrogant Kung Fu Gal]]: She's a deadly warrior in combat, and she doesn't hesitate to look down on her enemies.
* AxeCrazy: Considering that she spends half her lines in her introductory issue voicing her interest in devouring the Turtles, it's safe to say she's not the most level-headed individual.
* BreakTheHaughty: For all of her savagery and cruelty, she's left humbled and self-loathing after [[spoiler: Leonardo cripples her wings in issue 50]].
* DarkActionGirl: The most prominent one besides Karai after Alopex defects.
* DeathSeeker: Come issue 12 of the ''Universe'' spinoff, it's implied that [[spoiler: Koya has become this following the death of Shredder and the loss of her wings. When a lightning bolt hits the tree that she was perched in, she laments that she survived.]]
* FeatheredFiend: She's one of Shredder's more ruthless enforcers, mutated from a falcon.
* IcyBlueEyes: She has these.
* ImAHumanitarian: Implied to be as such, considering how she frequently voices her intent to feast on her opponents' innards. Somewhat justified, in that she used to be a bird of prey before her mutation.
* JerkAss: She'll be rude and dismissive of anyone whose name isn't Shredder or Bludgeon.
* NonMammalMammaries: Averted - despite not wearing much besides her greaves and a loincloth, Koya lacks a visible bust.
* OnlyFriend: Implied to have a mutual version of this with Bludgeon.
* RightHandAttackDog: Implied to have been this back when she was Shredder's (non-mutated) pet hunting bird.
* ToothyBird: Despite being mutated from a falcon, Koya has visible teeth whenever she opens her beak.
* UndyingLoyalty: To Shredder; considering that she was once his pet falcon before her mutation, this makes sense. [[spoiler: Said loyalty doesn't necessarily extend to Karai after Shredder's death, as she refers to the former as "a spoiled rich girl." Nonetheless, she follows Karai.]]

[[folder:Oroku Saki/ 'The Shredder']]
[[quoteright:210:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/shredder.jpg]]
The ageless leader of the Foot Clan. He is revived from seeming death by his grand-daughter Karai to lead the clan into a new age of prosperity. The Shredder is a ruthless leader who seeks complete domination and the destruction of his reincarnated rival Hamato Yoshi and his turtle family.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: While he's certainly nothing to take lightly in other media, he's often been depicted as making use of high-tech weaponry and/or using cheap shots to combat the Turtles. This incarnation of him relies on pure martial arts and classic ninja combat, and can easily take on all four Turtles at once. He even forces Krang, an alien in a suit of PoweredArmor, to a draw.
* BadassNormal: He's got nothing but pure martial arts skills, and he still manages to fight Krang's PoweredArmor to a stalemate.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: See GracefulLoser below.
* GracefulLoser: In issue 50. [[spoiler:After being mortally wounded by Splinter in their final duel, he chooses to FaceDeathWithDignity and commits {{seppuku}}.]]
* Really700YearsOld: Back in medieval Japan, Oroku Saki's lifespan and youth was extended for many decades with a magic potion made by his lover Kitsune. The potion was actually derived from ooze supplied by Utroms (later the basis of the mutagen that transformed the Turtles and Splinter). Desiring "true" immortality, Saki had Kitsune conduct a magic ritual using undiluted ooze to preserve his body for centuries, until he was revived in the present day by his descendant Karai.
