So the Triceratons move to Burnow Island where the utroms are and will meet Ch'rell and things will not go over too well.

I always love getting the solicits for the upcoming comics but I'd already seen most of these this time, oh well.
I wonder if the Triceratons' new neighbors could be the Utroms? Burnow Island could be facing a real estate boom |

I love the “neighborhood watch” sign on Kevin’s cover. It’s cute.
But why is there a giant turtle fist coming out of the top left corner of the cover? Is that a stamp of some kind? |

A reference? |

Jennika and Jones, badass allies with arms crossed. :tlol: I love it.
Also, yeah... Burnow Island, much? Sending the Triceratons to live with their former overlords isn't a great solution. It's a BAD solution. |

...Probably Ma'riell. She hasn't really been making the best decisions in making amends with former/potential enemies. From the way that sounds, Ch'rell's not going to let that fly. I'm not going to feel too bad for Ma'riell if Ch'rell takes control from her, especially if she makes a "third strike" in bad decisions. "Excuse me, Krang-senpai brought us to this place to get away from the Triceratons." Just...give them their own darn island, man. Hawaii's got one they're not using. There's plenty in the Pacific ocean. |

Also, why not give the Triceratons Detroit? Maybe they can fix that place up. :trazz: |

I think the difference is that Bishop arrived without a main-universe preview (as far as I remember) and Ch'rell did. Quote:

So the Triceratons are staying on Earth? It shouldn't be too hard to find them a suitable planet in Dimension X, right?

Yes, I remember now!
It's still kind of a weird way to introduce major villains, but I guess when people are busy on the other side... Speaking of that, what's taking them so long in acting on Burnow? Especially if the Triceratons are going to go there. |
