DW TMNT#1 is sold out!
 

Congrats to LeSean and the whole Dreamwave crew for this massive success!

Sayonara.

Sounds good! Luckily I ordered my copy in time. Same happened with Mirage VOL4 #1, seems like the name TMNT still sells.

Yes absolutely. It's fantastic to see both TMNT comics selling well. This franchise definetely has life in it. Especially now that they are telling the Mirage (or Mirage related) TMNT. I always knew that it could work, Mirage had just too many great stories.

Well Dreamwave will probably seel much more than Mirage, it's made for mass market afterall. In the long run, it migh even get more viewers to the show.

Dude, there's no "probably" will sell more. DW will UNDOUBTEDLY sell more than Mirage.

It's just a simple matter that DW has cool cutting-edge COLOR art. Having Peter David will bring in some of his followers. Plus it's based on the new cartoon that is popular.

Mirage is BLACK AND WHITE, has dated art, and is more obscure by having lots of continuity to a comic book most people haven't read.

Don't get me wrong, I love the Mirage series. It's the only TMNT series that's continuing the story line, progressing it. Everything else is just doing Year One again.

But it's just a simple marketplace fact that DW's TMNT is more mainstream and guaranteed to pick up more readers.

Thats what I'm saying. DW is mass marketed, Mirage is not nor does it want to be.

Mine shipped Tuesday!

So they arent making any more of this comic book? Well #1 anyways? If they are im gonna go get another one before my comic book store sells out too and I have never have a chance to get another one :-P

I ordered mine from midtown comics, I checked again today and now it's sold out there too. I wonder how many copies they printed, it sold out in one week.

Wow! I was at my comic store again two or three days ago...there were a couple there then. I was wanting to buy a second one too.

there better be one there this saturday!!! If there is I'll buy at least two.

I'm not too worried though - because there was a batman comic a couple months ago that featured superman and it sold out as well, but at my store they still had like 30 or so.

can't wait to go! :D

I got mine two issues (Mirage #10 and DW #1) on the 11th.

Most excellent! I heard the G2 TF and even the Armada issues are doing very well too. They use a very good cross marketing campaign as well, me thinks, by advertising their other comics in each issue. :D

I'm pleased to have reserved the DW #1 of LeS and Pat Lee's covers too now.

1) I never said that Mirage would sell better than DW. It can't, DW produces for a much larger market. I just said that Mirage is selling well, and it is.

2) I'm glad to see Dreamwave selling well. I agree with Guy De Blanc, the DW series (as well as the new cartoon) are similar to a "Year One" type feel. Although, I think the best example would be "Ultimate" TMNT. A retelling of the story with younger characters and new arcs.

3) I too hope that this new series draws new viewers to the show or vice versa. The new TMNT, as depicted in the cartoon and DW, is a fantastic version of the characters/story so I'm glad to see new fans enjoying and following it. One of my main beefs with the old show is that it gave people an inaccurate impression of what TMNT was like. I felt annoyed that such a great comic was being turned into a child's comedy. Now, it seems in both cartoon and comic mediums TMNT is getting some fair mainstream attention. (For the record, I still have great love for the first movie for also bringing the original TMNT to the mainstream).

Lucky I got my issue on Thursday, that thing sold fast :o

Damn. Now I can't get it. The only comic store near me doesn't sell it and now it's clear I won't be able to get it online. :cry:

w00t!

Hey, LeSean, if you see this, GOOD JOB ON A GREAT COMIC!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again... I like the DW issue more than the Mirage, but the Mirage books are great too.

I got both covers. :D

Augh! I missed out on getting the Dreamwave comic. Ah well... I'm certainly pleased by it's success, though. :D

Congrats to LeS and Peter David!

Azure, cqb, I'll be going to santa Cruz soon, they have some bad ass Comic shops there, I'll check to see if I can find you guys a couple copies.
