#8 is out!
 
hey guys! just picked up #8 from the comic store today. i think its better than the last issue. still no battles-of-consequence in it. they tie up one of the 500 plot lines they have going right now, haha. they develop on 2 others. plus, my letter got printed (second page, far left, signed "robert"). actually, i didnt know that would be printed. i wrote it as an email to dan. i actually did write another email, much more "professional" and asked some serious questions about lawson's human art, and such. if ive noticed one thing, its that peter laird doesnt take well to criticism, and never really responds to direct questions about it.

anyways, good issue in my opinion. what do you guys think?

If it's not their on Wednesday, then it won't be there until the next week. Most/All comic shops get their new comic shipments once a week.

Anyways, my comic shop didn't have it yesterday. Hopefully, they'll have it next week.

ok dok - lou from volume 2 comes and whipes jay's memory, and sets him on his way. we find out that not only is april *not* robyn's sister, shes not even the daughter of the two parents. so we dont know where april is from. leo and that guy get into a little scrap, and karai breaks it up. i think thats about it.

splint 02-08-2003 05:56 AM

thanks, I figured some sort of fight happened because of the picture on #7

Only1Don? 02-08-2003 01:08 PM

Jephael 02-08-2003 02:23 PM

Your letter got printed? Sweet! :D

Hey, I wonder if mine got printed?? Was there a letter from a Chris or anything that talked about the toy concepts Peter Laird drew up & put on his "Blast from the Past" website? If so, then that's my letter. :D

If not then, maybe next issue I'll see it? I actually mailed it to them in an envelope, figureing that since most people e-mail letters that a snail-mail letter would stand a better chance of gettin' printed. Kinda like a "oh, well he took the time to actually send it too us, so lets print it" sorta deal.

Actually, now that I think about it, it'd be easier for them to just cut'n'paste the e-mail into a file for the comic book then hand-type it over to the 'puter.

Awww crap, I just made more work for them- now I've got no chance. :cry:
Well, maybe a small one. I didn't say anything bad about his stuff, so maybe thats kinda like gettin' my foot in the door? :-?

Well I must say I really liked this issue, a step up from the last one, I would have enjoyed issue 7 more if they didn't have those little black dots all over the part with the super turtles (Reminded me of my copy of Ghidorah, the Three Headed Monster, it's like watching a great crystal clear Godzilla DVD, through a extremely dirty fishtank)

(SPOILERS)
I enjoyed the "sparring" with the wooden swords between Leo and that Cha Ocho guy, a cool fight, they seem to realy dislike each other, I wonder what the heck happened between them.

Raph- One of these days one of you two are going to have to finish this, I just hope it's you.

What the heck's he talkin' about? I'm intreged.

At the end of the ish the nanobots begin to kill April, I hope they save her, I hate it when they pull the classic comic book "Lets kill a beloved character to keep things intresting" card. Well that probably won't happen.

I want to see more of that weird monster that we saw in the Amazon during issue 3, seems like a cool villian.

On the back cover of the issue their's an awesome full page add for the new Turtle show!

and the preview drawing for the next issue: a ton of funny looking Turtle robots, What the hecks this all about!

Anyone know if this comic is doing good in sales?
