Tales of tmnt

[Stefano]

WHen is it comming out and what is it aabout

[Roseangelo]

There is no release date yet.

It will likely contain stories that will fill in the time cap between the end of Volume 2 and the start of Volume 4.

[Stefano]

ok thanks i think its gonna be pretty cool

[Nate]

Yeah, hopefully it's like the old ones.

[stnthmn]

Is this liek a graphic novel or something. Someone give me some details. All Turtles stuff goes fast here so I need details for my friend at the comic store to hold me a copy.

[Stefano]

i want details too

[impetus]

The original Tales was bimonthy and alternated with TMNT, prolly these will be the same. So there will be a new Mirage TMNT book every month!

Tales Volume 1 was 7 books long and were not necessarily in any particular order. Some of the stories took parts of the TMNT continuity and elaborated on them. Rat King, Radical, Complete Carnage, and others were introduced in the book.

Tales Volume 2 will have stuff from the "skipped" years since Mirage Volume 2 and perhaps more recent stuff as well.

[Stefano]

sweet i wonder when they come out. Will it be the same drawer inker etc. for tales as it is for vol 4

[Karpo_007]

I don't think any real info have been given yet.

Almost certainly not, as they are already busy with a bimonthly schedule.

[Cascadia]

No info has been given out except for what the cover may look like for the first issue of Tales of the TMNT.

[Karpo_007]

I think someone said it's supposed to start this year.

Peter has given many clues and hints if you read his comments in the comics, website, and letter pages.

[Stefano]

It was officially announced that Vol. 3 (Image) was completely nullified.

[Stefano]

was cha ocho in volume 3? Im just starting to get into comics i was too young to read them back in the day. I have all vol. 4 and some vol 1.

[Aztec General]

Cha Ocho was never introduced until Vol. 4. Although Laird has said he will explain his beef with Leo in Tales Vol. 2.

http://www.planetracers.com/blast/newtales1cover.jpgIt's a good cover. And the bandanas are red! Yeah!!!

[impetus]

there was also reference to a "werewolf incident" which will prolly show up in tales

[Nate]

You expected other wise? It's Mirage .. they like.. made the TMNT .. with red headbands.

[Karpo_007]

Yeah, and Mirage will always stay that way. Right now I like both ways.

[impetus]

AHAH!!!! yes, both right, the true/best TMNT were published by Mirage (obviously) and have red headwear. However, Mirage has not ALWAYS followed this rule. Non-continuity break on issue #22

*smacks forehead*
Okay, granted that I don't have that actual issue, just the Collected Book, but how come I never even noticed that he wears a purple bandana on the cover?!

[impetus]

It bothers me. As does Mark Bode's depiction of April as a reporter - in a Mirage book. Number 32, I believe

[Karpo_007]

Siple answer: It is a guest artist issue. Mark Martin's issues are parody of the TMNT, they have no connection to the continuity.

[Sparvid]

It bothers me. As does Mark Bode's depiction of April as a reporter - in a Mirage book. Number 32, I believeIt doesn't bother me with these kind of stuff in issues that are not in continuity (or issues that can ignored without any trouble), but I don't like that Mike and Don basically turned into their cartoon counterparts in the second Leatherhead story...

[Karpo_007]

Yeah, the whole art was cartoony too. But Berger has proved he can draw gritty TMNT too. I have color print in a portofolio that poves it.

[impetus]

heh heh - they don't bother me MUCH. I just meant the out-of-continuity stories are published in the Mirage line under the same title.

Berger is awesome!!! My fav mirage artist.
