No Usagi for this series?
 

Will this be the only TMNT toon without Usagi? probably WAY to early to tell.

Indeed. I'd love to see Usagi, and we really have no way of knowing if Stan will sign off on his use, yet.

Would the Nick writers even ask Stan? I imagine not.

Then the episode wouldn't get made...they would need Stan's approval to use Usagi.

Usagi's been in almost every media apart from movies right? It would be good to keep him for "continuity". (Not that I want it to be the same as other series)

I think "tradition" is a more fitting word than "continuity" here.

He wasn't in the Archie series either.

He was in the original cartoon, 4kids cartoon, and Mirage comics.

Usagi is pretty awesome I doubt if he will be in this series though jst bc Nick is really trying to make this a completely different series set apart from the others.

You know in complete honesty I would rather see Usagi make a cameo in the new comic series at one point, then the new cartoon.

With Peter out of the picture though and Stan being such a good friend of his, it makes me doubt either will happen :tsad:

You're right.:D

hey fearlessleader, don't worry man!
I am a member of the usagi yojimbo dojo and stan said already that he was asked to contribute something to the new idw comic series, maybe a one-shot or something of that matter was what stan guessed...so there is reason to look forward for this matter;)
of course I wouldn't know if in case stan really makes a one shot that he will automaticly bring myamoto usagi into that story but...let's just wait and see...

thats pretty cool.

Thank you SO much for this information!!!

This brought a huge smile to my face! :tgrin:

I love IDW!

Sweet! I really oughtta go to the dojo more often, I always forget to despite having an account there.

On a somewhat related note, I asked Dooney if he'd be down to do the occasional variant cover or pinup & he said he'd love to. So maybe we can find a way to link IDW up with him too seeing how he's in the top 3 fan favorites list.

To the IDW forums!!

I sure hope usagi does show up, maybe the turtles will stumble upon a furries convention lol

Great piece of news there Marcelangelo! Thanks for sharing!

Great news!! I look forward to seeign what it is; hope it's not just a pin-up but another crossover adventure! :D

I've often wondered how many people picked up an issue of Volume 4 based on the cover art and experienced the visual shock when they opened the page.

EDIT: I thought I was in the Comic Section reading this...:P

I hope to see usagi. He seems to go hand-in-hand with TMNT.
