Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Discussion

Does anyone know if they're going to keep doing the Micro-Series one-shots? I know April is coming up, but after that they'll have run out of characters; will they start doing Raphael #2 etc?

I don't know anything but I was kinda thinking that since they did a micro for Splinter, Casey and April they might flip the script and do micros for Hob, Krang, Stockman, Shredder and Aloplex.

Issue 12 was pretty sweet. A good way to end the first year of the new turtles. I myself am happy to see a new artist come to the book, I hope it proves to be better then Duncan. Also have you guys seen the TMNT Annual? All the art is being done by Eastman! That's a must buy for sure. Here is a pic of it for anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

I hope not. This is one of the things I hate about mainstream comics. I will drop the series if they continue to have tie in books with relevant plot twists.

My copy of Ultimate collection vol 3 arrived. In perfect condition this time.

After Aprilis the Fugitoid but it's not known who will be next, hopefully a Saki/Shredder one. The first micros could be seen as the "Heros", these current 4 as the "Support" so the next four should be the "Villains".

My Ultimate TMNT vol. 3 came in this weekend and looks good like the others. I do wish the numbers on the side were all consistent. Why make the first volume with a rd lettered number one and the other two volumes have white lettering for the number on the spine?

I was under the impression that Mirage still retained the rights to the Fugitoid, and that's why the Ultimate Collections omitted the Mirage Fugitoid one-shot. But if IDW is doing a Fugitoid one-shot then they must have the rights, which makes me wonder why Fugitoid #1 was omitted from the Ultimate Collection.

I'm pretty sure when Nickelodeon bought the turtles they bought the rights to all the turtle content, including Fugitoid.

Laird said Viacom also got the good professor because he is so intertwined with the Turtles.

The reason his solo outing was not featured in the Ultimate Collection is because the events of the comic were recapped quite well in TMNT #5, although Fugitoid is an Eastman/Laird comic.

Anyone else picking up and enjoying the Color classics reprints?

I picked up #1, I don't know why. I guess because I have so many different copies of so many different reprints of that issue I figured one more couldn't hurt. But I prefer the series in black and white. I do like that they are reprinting the series though.

no but i looked through some, the colouring job is horrid!

[jetter_cheeze]

I thought it was a bit amateurish too, but the feel of it reminds me of coloring from the 80s.

[Captain Craig]

Everyone still getting this and the micro series?

Read issue #13 and really enjoyed how this felt like the first "family" issue. Each turtle unwinding after the events with Shredder and how it tied back into the Casey micro from the month before.

Read April micro #7 and that was also a great read. Is this perhaps a first appearance in this series by Tokka?

That wasnt tokka, it was slash. As referenced by the palm tree he took out of the aquarium.
