Is Shredder in Hell having production delays? I'm curious if the schedule for the next 4 issues is set. Seems to be some confusion as to when these issues are planned to come out.

For example, in Terminator 2 the T-800 is programmed to protect John Connor and adjust his parameter based on his orders but only does so because that's what he's programmed to do. If he was sent back in time with no orders, he'd probably just stand still naked outside the biker bar. So what exactly is Metalhead trying to accomplish if can't actually care about anything? |

Can they, though? In order to reach a decision, you must first care about either of its possible outcomes. How can you care about something if you lack all emotion? Answer: Metalhead 2.0 (and similar characters in other works of fiction) cannot be as dead inside as they believe themselves to be.

You got my brain thinking. That’s a good thing today. Thanks. My two cents is as follows. Decisions can be made with a flip of a coin. Appearing to take emotion out of the equation. But it was basic emotions that drove to the decision of flipping the coin in the first place. Coin scapegoat maybe. I think even in terms of sports the emotion of the coin flipper comes in to play. How soft or hard the coin is tossed could determine heads or tails. Or what if someone switches the coin on you. Someone else’s emotion has impacted your decision.

Ha, yes, expect delays on this book. #2 was just approved to print yesterday, so that will be in stores in 3-4 weeks. #3 will be in April if things proceed as they are now. Basically, this book will be sprinkled throughout the year. Not ideal, I know. But hopefully worth the wait.

We don't have specific ages assigned, we like to not tie ourselves down to something too specific in case we need to adjust for a story reason later.
But in my mind, Leo is 19, Don 18, Raph 17, Mike 16. If you want to add a year space somewhere to give poor Tang Shen a rest, go for it. But it was back in the day, so yearly births weren't unheard of. |

To kinda piggyback on that, how much time had passed from issue one to now? Feels like 2-3 years to me, just wondering if there is an official answer. Thanks!

No official measure, but that sounds about right to me. I can't see Mike much younger than 14 at the series start.

So physically the Turtles are under 10 while mentally from reincarnation in their mid-teens?
Isn't the timeframe from being muatated to first fight in #1 around 15 months, and being sea turtles that small when April names them, they're still juveniles. |

I suppose it all depends on how young the turtles the TMNT were mutated from are. But that's not a question we have any interest in answering.

So the news that IDW will start publishing Usagi just hit. I was just wondering if you could shed some light on Stan jumping ships? I know you were the editor on the crossover less than two years back. Will you have anything to do with Usagi from now on?

I'll be editing the Usagi book!
I can't really speak to Stan's reasons for the change, sorry! |
