i got it today (dec 18 wednesday) at my local comic store.

im kinda disappointed in it. its only 24 pages =P. its a good 24 pages, but it reminds me of the short-lived volume 2. the reason i think vol. 2 didnt last long, is b/c vol. 1 was 30-40 pages per comic. most were on the upper end of that range. then, vol. 2 comes out, and they waned to put time and let the story evolve, which i am all about. i like volume 2. however, if i had been collecting them at that time, yeah, it would suck ass to wait 2 months to have very little happen per issue.

so, hopefully this was just an isolated incident and they dont stay to the short issues.

just a comment on the new series...does anyoen else think lawson sucks at drawing humans? back in the 'ole days of 'city at war', 'tales of the tmnt', and 'return to new york', i really liked his work - those are some awesome comics. i neve really liked how he drew the turtles faces (their mouths always looked wierd to me) but it didnt bug me. but in the new series, i just cant stand the way he draws april, casey, shadow, and in #7 robyn.

i mean, look at the last page of #1. shadow looks horrid. and look at robyn in the new issue..like on page 22, at the top..it looks like some big bear or something squeezed her waist, making most of the pressure force her eyballs to try to pop out of her head, and inflated her lips. bleh!

not to put him down, but trying to give some constructive criticism. i like the rest of his work in the books.
