Prediction time, how many issues do you think the IDW series will last?

Unless if it's truly a new incarnation, I see no reason with these "new #1's", as they clearly won't have collector's value like the previous series/originals, though having separate volumes simply tries to fool the casuals into thinking it's really the first when they don't hone in on the details.

That said, I'll say about 40-50 issues for this IDW series. This would take it to sometime in 2015, well after Nick/possible movie has settled this era down. The problem though is most of today's kids aren't as interested in comics as we are, and the duration of the series is solely based on the ideas that Eastman & Duncan have up their sleeves. TMNT comics, unlike an animated series, is not something that lasts 100+ stories, generally. Afterward, expect either a Vol. 2 or a cancellation, depending on how well the Nick/Movie/Playmates sales go along with the writers' interest in terms of if there is a point to continue.
