I would not expect this out of IDW. I love this ridiculous concept. Will this be in continuity however?

Orange weapons? Yup, there's no other way.

Right?
It's like the subject heading for the emailed proposal just stuck. I kind of love it.

Bates, Weaver, Campbell? We're not worthy!

Not familiar with anyone else involved, but I love getting new artists in on the action. Wonderful concept too, and I hope I don't get too used to this weekly thing lol.

Did anyone else think of this when seeing the concept?

That promotional image reminds me of the SNES box art for Turtles in Time. Nice job on IDW's part if intentional!

The summaries don't seem to mention Bebop/Rocksteady transporting to other universes, I wonder if those are just art scenarios for the covers.

This is just the weirdest most awesome thing ever. EVER.

I would never have come up with this idea in a million years. I am stoked, envious, and just so damn impatient for June.

I can't speak on the other ones, but that Bebop & Rocksteady title spread with the Mirage Turtles I did isn't a cover, that's interior art.

Vintage Playmates Turtles art may always be my favorite Turtles art.

Why can't it be June already?


Eww. Come on deadpool? Deadpool is gross, redundant and unfunny. Bebop and Rocksteady are gold.

I meant in terms of the self-referential, satirical shenanigans Deadpool has gotten up to in recent years ("Deadpool's The Art of War" comes to mind).

While I don't expect any fourth-wall breaking in this mini, from the covers and solicits alone we can already infer there will be a ton of opportunities for metahumor and such. It's a wacky story starring the franchise's traditional comic relief characters that won't take itself, or everything else, seriously at all.

That's Deadpool-ish enough for me. But it's just a term of comparison anyway.
