Volume 4 will be the last Mirage TMNT universe story - Page 3

I think that if Nick saw that there was a market for it I'm sure they would have no problem licensing the mirage continuity to another comic book company. They have no means to produce and publish their own comic books, so getting another company more capable of doing it is just good business.

IDW will most likely be the one to get the comics. They've got a deal with Archie comics right now and will be publishing Archie TPB's in 2010.

That would be nice, but I guess it all depends on whether or not someone at Mirage thinks it's worth it. I'd like to think there would be some interest if it was released in enough comic book stores. The original TMNT comics would be a lot easier for people to follow than the current stuff which requires a lot of back story, so it might get a better following than Vol. 4 or Tales.

I think another company approaching Viacom about using the license for all the comics would be awesome. TMNT may have peaked in popularity some time ago, but it's still a recognizable name in comics so a smaller company might like the opportunity.

I think the obvious thing is there will be a comic based on the cartoon, but I don't know if they would do anything with the Mirage universe.

Likewise nobody should finish Volume 4 but Pete himself. Another company can't do a Volume 5 because we don't know how this story ends yet.

The only alternative is to go into the past again.

If anyone does decide to follow the Mirage Universe, it's probably a safe bet it won't follow Vol. 4.
