Yeah, i'm as involved in it as I am with the Batman crossover. Which is not very much: facilitating approvals with Nickelodeon and providing notes on very rare occasion.

But everything i've seen looks really fun, and that's coming from someone who aged out of Power Rangers right before it got going and thus has almost no attachment to them.

I'm sure you're all pretty busy, but I don't want to miss anything. I love hearing interviews with the team.

Uh, we did some sort of podcast in the spring... i'm blanking on who it was with but I think it came out recently. But nothing major, no. Most of that effort has gone into the Oral History.

So with TMNT crossovers being rather successful dating back to the two Ghostbusters crossovers, technically 4 Batman crossovers (with the Nick/B:TAS one too), now Power Rangers....and now that IDW publishes Marvel superheroes like Spiderman,etc....what are the chances of a Spiderman/TMNT crossover next year or in the future?

Seems like the next logical conclusion.

I think we'd all love that here, but Marvel has been pretty ironclad on no crossovers with anyone, at any other companies. Anything can change at any time, but there looks to be zero chance of it happening as of this writing.

How about a crossover with Hellboy?

*Ninjinister* · 07-15-2019, 04:05 PM

Why doesn't Jennika seem to be in MMPR/TMNT? Just a matter of timing?

I wonder why and how this even happened. They did some pretty awesome crossover comics in the 90s and the early 2000s. They still do some video game crossovers (such as they may be) like Marvel vs. Capcom. Thousands of people loved Amalgam just for the sheer ridiculousness and were hoping there would be something for the series' 20th anniversary and then... nothing.

Meanwhile all of their competitors are going absolutely crossover crazy.

But we have to have Daredevil involved

Was IDW's involvement required to any degree when it comes to the PR crossover, or could Nickelodeon go to Boom on their own?

Mike Lowrey · 07-15-2019, 04:25 PM

Was Jennika the assassin that killed Professor Miller in issue 46?

Has Hellboy crossed over with anything out of the Mignola-verse? I dunno, maybe!

Yeah, they didn't know about her until everyone else! It's not our universe anyway, so makes sense that she wouldn't be there.

I don't know the intricacies of the business side of it, so I can't answer that question directly, but I think just good practice to involve us to the degree we're involved.

We haven't said so definitely, but I like to think so, yes!

I know he did with Batman. He was also in the Injustice 2 game with the Turtles as well.

Will Jennika turn into Venus? Or you’ll introduce Venus later?

Love what you guys are doing, keep it up!

Thanks! No plans for Jennika to turn into Venus or for there to be a Venus.

Very serious question time:

Does Jennika have three toes or two like the boys? And will the bow and arrow in the concept art be staying?

I ask because most of the printed or approved-to-be-printed stuff shows the character with two toes and just the claws, but there is one variant cover that looks like it might keep three toes... these are the serious questions fans are dying to have answered!

#95 has her with two toes. As for the weapons you'll have to see what she uses during the course of the comic!

Gotcha. Cheers!

I believe at some point someone asked me about the out-of-print TMNT IDW Collection Vol. 4... it will be back in stock sometime in August.
