Yes, we've been talking about him doing something in the mid-70's of the ongoing, so that's a while away and things could change by then. Maybe something sooner if it works out. I know he loves TMNT.

More of a process question here. How do you go about bringing in a new character or pitching a brand new character to the franchise for the comics to everyone at IDW?

Also a second question if you have the time; With the massive success of the Batman Crossover has there been any discussions of another crossover comic in the future with DC or maybe even Marvel?

[ChosenOne]

Roughly how soon can we expect to see more of Leatherhead, be it in the main title or in Universe?

[turtlefanforever]

Celebrities often get to guest write comics, like CM Punk did with Marvel. Will there ever be a celebrity to guest write and issue of IDW TMNT?

I think you should be seeing him again before the end of the calendar year.

None planned at this time.

Thanks for answering!

Is "Amazing Adventures" able to resolve loose plot threads from the TV show the writers of the show will not?

I can talk more about that after some news is released in the coming days at SDCC.

I think it could, yes, if the show writers had no intention of returning to it.

Kind of good timing with my last question about new characters considering TMNT Universe 3.

How does one bring up the idea for a new character in the franchise at IDW?

[neatoman]

So Bobby, what are your thoughts on this short?

Is the IDW Mega Bloks comic meant to be "canon" with the Turtles Multiverse?

Same question here!

[Mongoose Mike]

Bobby, what kind of qualities does IDW look for in its writers?

[Lord Nightwalker]

Hey Bobby or Tom! Any chance we'll be seeing Andres Ponce do some new TMNT art this year? Perhaps in Universe?

Usually it's simply discussed in the pitch for a story and myself and the writer will go over the character's potential.
