Original Note:
April O'Neil was introduced in TMNT (Vol. 1) #2, 1984. In it, she is drawn with straight hair and with a skin color vastly different from the one used for Baxter Stockman, a black character. In later issues, she gets a perm, a popular hairstyle of the time. https://www.cbr.com/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-april-oneil-origins/ http://tmntentity.blogspot.com/2018/02/was-april-oneil-originally-black-in.html
