I feel pathetic, here's a golden opportunity and I can't think of a single question to asked the man.

I think its probably because everything we could possibly ask him...we already know the answer to. Since he's not involved with IDW/Nick or the new movie, there's nothing to ask him about current TMNT going on.

And since he had nothing to do with the original toon, that's out too.

You can really only ask him about the Mirage comics, 4kids cartoon, and probably the four movies.

**Jester** · 11-18-2013, 10:34 PM

Asked one simple question: Seen any new TMNT lately?

And then i deleted it, because a friend and fellow fan pointed out that he answered that self same question in his opening statement....

I wonder why he isn't reading IDW or watching the nick series? I know he needed a break from turtles but you would think he would at least be a little interested in the new stories.

He said after he sold Turtles he wanted to distance himself from the franchise. Same reason why he didn't finish Volume 4.

I wonder if it's because it's like all fan-fiction and fan-art to him? He seems to have a pretty solid idea of the tmnt world that he co-created.

At least he seems to be semi-interested in the Nick show, having bought the first season. I suspect we'll get a full range of his thoughts on it sooner or later...

...Or it could be like Ian Rankin is with DVDs of Rebus, where as he doesnt watch any of the adaptations of his books at all but feels compelled to support the franchise he created.

I was thinking the same thing. I'm eager to see what he thinks, though I doubt it'll be high praise.

Glad Peter answered my questions once again, it's always awesome to hear back from a turtles legend.

He answered mine too! Which I was stoked about.

I love reading Peter Laird's posts. He's so entertainingly blunt.

Yeah he tells it exactly how it is. No sugar coating at all.

No need to apologize -- there are no "plans" per se to finish Volume 4 at this point in time. I hope to do it sometime, but it won't be soon -- that's about all I can say.

ahhhh

*Coola Yagami* · 11-21-2013, 07:06 PM

I was also excited to see that he actually took the time to answer my questions. LOL

*The Fifth Turtle* · 11-21-2013, 08:36 PM

On a side note....... can IDW print vol. 4? Anyone know?

When they get up to it. They're almost done with Volume 1 so they have to go through Volume 2 and Image next.

Good thing is they're already going through Tales in a separate series so that won't interfere.

Thanks. Hopefully they can continue to churn these out while turtles are hot. I miss having these stories after I sold my entire comic collection.

*CyberCubed* · 11-21-2013, 09:29 PM

I can't believe someone asked him about Turtlecest on his blog. Seriously, people, keep that sick stuff out of the minds of normal people.

I'm surprised Laird actually responded to it. Show some tact, people.
