Planned TMNT Collected Books (Trade Paperbacks) From IDW

rich — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 04:25:06 +0000

We’re starting to hear a lot of great information from IDW about their plans to collect and re-issue all the legacy TMNT comics from Mirage, Archie, and Image. This news broke over at the IDW Publishing Forums late last week but if you want a nice breakdown of the information, Roseangelo (of NinjaPizza fame) wrote up a nice little article that summarizes things. For me, the best part about this news is that Bobby Curnow stated, “Essentially we’re looking to release everything…” So cool. A whole new generation of TMNT fans is in for a wild ride.

I’ve added these planned TPBs to a new section appropriately titled “PLANNED” in my “Upcoming TMNT Comics” list to the right. There are no new TMNT releases for the new few weeks but stay tuned…I’m sure there will be some new covers or breaking TMNT news to share.

BREAKING NEWS !! TMNT Micro-Series #2 Michelangelo Global Conquest Edition

rich — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 19:42:34 +0000

Hey TMNT fans!! I just received word that the TMNT Micro-Series #2 Michelangelo will be getting a Global Conquest Edition just like TMNT #1-5 + Raphael. Although the Mikey micro was not initially planned to receive a Global Conquest Edition, it’s being created now primarily due to international demand for it. Since the original Dec. 28 release date was right on the cusp of IDW’s ability to distribute internationally, many international shops never received it. So, in effect, this is basically a 2nd printing (just like the other TMNT Global Conquest Editions) that ensures the international TMNT audience gets to catch up with the IDW TMNT story line(s).

As for a release date, Mar. 7 seems to be a good bet but that’s not yet official. As always, I’ll keep you updated if anything changes.

Here’s the cover for the TMNT Archie 100 Page Spectacular from IDW. Collects the three issue mini-series from the TMNT Archie series. This is the same content as the 25th Anniversary Edition of the same book published by Mirage a while back (although I think the cover will not contain the “25th Anniversary” stamp). Available on April 25, 2012.
