TMNT Adventures Volume 16 (final Archie TPB) now listed for pre-order!

Busta Uppa · 03-20-2018, 07:55 AM

I've been searching almost every day and a listing finally popped up:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/1684053714

It's said to include issues 67 through 72.

Not especially newsworthy but I've been paranoid this whole time that they might not finish the run. Glad that won't be the case!

v15 is currently slated for June; v16 currently says December but I expect that to change as the dates for these TPBs have almost always gotten pushed back.

Doesn't sound like they're going to include the TMNT Meet Archie back-up reprints from #71 and #72, just the main "How the Turtles got their Weapons" story, which was the length of 1 issue broken up in two.

So Vol. 16 is really only going to have 5 issues of content length to it. Kinda skimpy for $19.99.

It's 6 issues actually. Also, these trades almost always drop in price by at least a few dollars by the time of the actual release.

I don't care personally, but I'm very glad for the Archie fans that this is being completed.

Such as it is, missing those issues from the world-trotting story arc, missing "Year of the Turtle", et al.

Wow, 6 years of reprints. I'm glad I supported it monetarily, even if some decisions didn't make sense. These are fun to have shelved, but I'll be glad to stop waiting six months per book. Thanks for the heads up.

Wow, has it really been six years? I knew it was a long time but man, time flys when you’re waiting for new turtle trades :p

Still hoping they sneak a Forever War coming soon ad at the end of the final trade. But, then again, hoping on false hope isn't beyond me.

They still can collect Year of the Turtle as well as the other specials and mini's they skipped over, like the Armaggon 3-parter or the other Mutanimals issues. I think this just means the main ongoing is done which is true since it finishes up to issue 72

They did Future Shark. Which other 3-parter do you mean?

I think he meant the Merdude miniseries, where Armaggon was the main villain (sorta).
