IDW's Secret History of The Foot Clan
 
Tentatively out later this year. Mateus Santolouco (TMNT #5 flashbacks) will be co-scripting and doing the art, and Eric Burnham (Splinter Micro) will also be co-scripting.

I'm insanely pumped.

Is this a micro or a graphic novel?

ToTheNines 07-13-2012 06:09 PM

Mini series. Also Eastman's annual is gonna be a 48 page story.

DonatelloFan 07-13-2012 06:09 PM

So is this what that other 'IDW Panel' thread was about? Any other info? Micro Series #8? Graphic Novel? What?

Mewzard 07-13-2012 06:26 PM

Did we get any sort of summary on what the book would be? Just based on the title, it sounds interesting. I'm a bit behind on the series (only four issues in thus far), but I'm enjoying it thus far. More background shouldn't hurt.

ToTheNines 07-13-2012 06:28 PM

It's about how the Foot came about and how Shredder is still alive in present time.

Here's the article: http://www.comicbookresources.com/?p...ticle&id=39770

Quote:

Assistant Editor and "Night of 1000 Wolves" writer Bobby Curnow was the next guest. Speaking about "Battle Beast," a miniseries based on the toys, Curnow said that a rampaging race of aliens comes to Earth seeking artifacts, and it's up to good beasts and one woman who can understand their language to save the planet.

Kevin Eastman will be illustrating the 48-page "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" annual, Curnow said. "He's putting his heart into this," Curnow added.

Curnow announced "Rise of the Foot Clan," a miniseries set for later this year, showing "how the Shredder rose to power and how he came to the current day." It is written by Mattheus Santalouco with art by Eric Burnham.

Okay, so what's this about an annual? I know Peter Laird has the right to publish something like 12 issues a year of original content, but I haven't heard of this annual yet? What is it?

azrael 07-13-2012 07:32 PM

Eric said he was assissting the with the script and not drawing it.

I'm glad to know that Shredder was too cool for just a little Micro-Series one-shot. Oh no, ol' Tin Grin warranted his own mini-series!

azrael 07-13-2012 07:39 PM

I got a sketchcard I won from Mr.Burnham himself. I now share it with you all!

How long is this mini-series? Somewhere around 3-5 issues? I imagine they'll count as Shredder's "micro" as well.

ToTheNines 07-13-2012 07:49 PM

4 issue mini.

CyberCubed 07-13-2012 07:54 PM

I am glad to see IDW keeping up the mini's and specials. As much as I do like the main series, I do agree that without the specials the series moves too slowly.

With these micros and mini-series they can cover things they don't in the main volume, like the intro of Alopex, Leo fighting the Foot, Splinter and Shredder backstory, or just fun filler adventures.

IDW really is doing a fantastic job keeping this series alive.

DonatelloFan 07-13-2012 08:01 PM

It is great that they're doing different things with the series. Aside from the inside art and reincarnation story, I'm really liking everything else. Keep it up IDW!!!

Cowabunga Carl 07-13-2012 09:01 PM

An annual from Eastman and a Shredder mini-series!?!?! This is amazing. Such a great time to be a fan.

DrSpengler 07-13-2012 09:11 PM

That is one hell of a creative team.

Psyched for this one.

Redeemer 07-13-2012 09:16 PM

Bad-ass!!!!I cannot wait to see this series!!!!

Powder 07-13-2012 09:24 PM

Awesome, I'm definitely looking forward to this. Props to IDW for all of the 'bonus' content aside from the main book.
