Unpublished Bissette/Talbot Story

**Venom** · 12-11-2007, 08:57 PM

Hey guys,

I was over on Kevin's site messing around and found this while looking at his art for sale: http://www.metaltv.com/showitem.cfm?Itemnum=4326

Here is the accompanying description:
By Steve Bissette and Eric Talbot unpublished complete story entitled "Shell Shocked." Written by Bissette, penciled and inked on duo shade board by Eric Talbot, this story was never finished and never published. 12 pages total, size is 9" x 13" total price is $600.

Man, I wish this story had gotten finished - the artwork looks amazing! I betit would have been a pretty exciting issue, but alas, much is the way of the Turtles.

Man, that looks like it would've been sweet! If only it could be published as an issue of Tales. We've got like a 0% chance of that happening though.

Holy Fried Jesus on a Stick! That's amazing! 600 simoleans is a little too rich for my blood, though.

Crap!!! Few years late to this party..... Anyone know if the art for that story is still viewable online?

& to think I was wondering why the link didn't work... Jesus, what an old thread. I am definitely interested in this, though, I hope someone out there has more information or pictures.

Whoa, blast from the past!

I may have saved the images back then; I'll see if they're on my external hard drive, as the PC I had then is long gone!

Keep us posted!

God DAMN that looks cool. Thanks for tracking it down. I wonder if it was ever purchased, and if so, are there scans? I hate it when people get rare one of a kind sh*t and don't share it with the community...

Gorgeous stuff. Ah what could've been...
