is this an error or is this just a cool ahead of schedule early release?

It's true...Bobby Curnow at IDW had said that they'd be hitting middle of the month pretty regularly after #16.

It looks like the Michaelangelo Christmas Micro Color Classic might have come out yesterday...

Michaelangelo Color Classics and Tales of TMNT vol. 1 both came out yesterday. Did Someone pick up Tales? Is the coloring done by the same team who is doing the Color Classics series? Can't say it from the preview credits page.

Yep, I got one!

I'll post a few preview pages if I can remember the best thread for that kind of thing.

Thanks!

Those foot clan variants are very nice...I've already preordered the dynamic force cover, the ri a and ri b cover. It's actually pretty hard to get those foot clan variants in Germany, because the stores don't order enough of the regular covers to get hold of the variants.

But I still try to get my hands on the nice variants..collecting IDW stuff can be a rather expensive hobby for a German

Maybe you already know it: some weeks ago Panini announced that they will release the german version of the IDW ongoing series in 2013. They will do the same in Italy and other European countries.

Is Secret History of the Foot Clan #1 out yet?

Thanks!

Nope, it got delayed due to some strike at a shipping company or something....

I noticed there are dates for the release of Color Classics #7 and #9 but not #8? Anyone know the reason for this?

Because they aren't doing a Color Classics for #8.

The reason for skipping over #8 just as Mirage did when downloading issues on its former site and only having an aardvark on screen for three seconds in Return of Savanti Romero is the reason of copyright.Royalities would have to be paid to Cerebus's creator for reprints of the issue as well as further crossovers.That issue should only cost you $3 in original form so its no big loss.The reason Usagi had so often crossed over to the point we thought he was a TMNT character was his best friend was Peter Laird who understood Usagi's character and had free reign over the character whenever Usagi could be worked in.Since TMNT is now under the cooperate thumb instead of his best buddy Usagi will likely be ending his longtime association with the Ninja Turtles so Viacom would not have to pay royalities to him while royalities probably would not be an issue when putting out previous work with TMNT that Usagi was involved in.

Thank you for the very detailed response!

Haha.Not a problem! Not often I can help a poster on the TMNT comic front.

I suspect at that point Peter and Kevin were just having fun with colleagues but Peter's friendship with Usagi made Usagi's interaction with TMNT unique and no royalities had or have to be maxe. Too bad Pete was not tight with the Cerebus creator. If Cerebus would have appeared in Return of Savanti instead of the nod I bet we would have gotten a Black Vulcan-esque reworking of the character.Avioding reprinting the issue is the only way not to involve copyrights unlike a cartoon that could tweak.DC got around copyrights by changing the character's name and slightly changing the costume. It would have been too much for 4Kids I bet and it turned out fine. TMNT could crossover with other IDW licensed properties or fellow Viacom properties.Fellow IDW licenses might run into a snag if reprinted after licenses change or viacom's intellectual properties change hands TMNT could interact with.

Are you going to include the upcoming Nickelodeon TMNT comics on the list?
