Yeah I guess it would be more fair to say it's because it's an old-school Claremont superhero mag. I've not read a huge amount of his stuff, but most of it I have is like this. A fairly standard adventure takes place, with maybe one or two callouts to ongoing story elements every issue. It's a drip feed of info to keep kids spending their money on X-books every month. Something with more indy sensibilities like TMNT is just going to be different. (and probably better, but I can't say)
