Can't believe we are getting #63 this quick! I am curious if we will see Splinter's motives for his surprising move. That is the highlight I am looking to see.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and wager this is the last arc the Turtles spend with the Foot Clan. Safe bet at this point.

*neatoman* · 10-07-2016, 08:12 AM

Hope they'll save Harry... Or not... Whatever works out best in the longrun.

*CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy* · 10-07-2016, 08:31 AM

This is everything I want. And the covers for this story arc have been BEAUTIFUL. Especially this one.

Totally, man.

I'm really curious what the solicitations are going to hint at for the story arc coming after this and the holiday issue.

The Alopex issue is up next, if I recall. Then the solicit for #67 will probably be plenty spoilery but it won't matter, seeing as how we'll already know the end of Chasing Phantoms by then. Funny how well this whole thing plays out.

We are getting two consecutive one shot stories with the Christmas themed story and Alopex in Alaska,right? The n3xt arc will startvwith #68.

#63 - Chasing Phantoms, Part 3
#64 - Chasing Phantoms, Part 4
#65 - Christmas story
#66 - Alopex story
#67 - New arc begins

Or at least I think this is it, could be wrong.

Correct.

Based on Mateus' art, the next art is Bishop hunting down the Mutanimals and the Turtles.

*CyberCubed* · 10-07-2016, 12:08 PM

The next arc may very well be Bishop's attack on Burnow Island against the Utroms. Or at least I hope so, I'd rather them get back to the Utroms/Fugitoids problems and see Bishop go all out after them.

The Pantheon arc will probably be on the backburner for a while, and we know Leatherhead meets Hob in the next Universe story. So other than that there's not much else to go back to other than the Utroms/Fugitoid and Bishop attacking them.

Technogeek29 · 10-07-2016, 01:27 PM

I love Harold, have I said that before?

I've I thought at any point I was going to be killed anyway, I'd be pretty snarky myself. And hello Mirage Splinter it's been too long.

*CyberCubed* · 10-07-2016, 01:36 PM

Its kind of interesting the woman is totally fine with Harold being kidnapped and working for criminals. I think she's not as innocent as we assume.

*Utrommaniac* · 10-07-2016, 02:04 PM

Quite a surprise this is coming so soon. Probably because October ends on a Monday, so some releases have to be pushed back a little bit.

And again...someone apologize to Michelangelo right now for not taking his concerns seriously.

I'm pretty sure the Mutanimals story is a mini. Which is good, because it probably wouldn't contribute to the main plot overall, and would just be an unnecessary detour.

Not only that, but it's already been established in the main series that Bishop knows about Burnow - and not the mutanimals. A colony of aliens is probably going to be his first priority over the mutants that were created by their presence.

*CyberCubed* · 10-07-2016, 02:17 PM

If the Street Phantoms story is only 2 issues more, I wonder how this will all play out. Darius will likely escape/get away, or maybe the Turtles won't even see him. They'll likely rescue Harold at the end, I'm guessing the woman will stick with Darius.

I wonder if the Street Phantoms will be straight up murdered like The Savate.

Can you post a link to Mateus's page?

Pretty sure it's not a mini. But we'll see. I agree, Bishop has a lot of different targets to hit, but the main one SHOULD be Burnow Island. Not sure why he hasn't made a move there yet.

I still think Jennika will assassinate Darius Dun at Splinter's command. The final straw that severs Splinter and Turtles.

.

Maybe in the future, but right now he's too new a character to be killed off so quickly.

Not necessarily. If his sole purpose was to lead a force antagonistic to the Foot Clan and then have his death showcase Splinter's divide from his sons... what would be the point of his sticking around?

Characters are brought into a narrative for a specific purpose, Cubed. Sometimes, a character just has to die.

*CyberCubed* · 10-07-2016, 03:59 PM

Seems like a waste of potential to kill off Dun so fast, he seems like a character who will be around for a while. That's why I said I wonder if the Street Phantoms would be literally killed off, as in dying rather than just being defeated.
