This looks good, by the way so we will be getting TMNT: Saturday Morning Adventures story in this, so I guess that means it might take place between issues 14 and 15 of this comic book, I am also excited for other stories we will be getting in TMNT 40th anniversary special, it will also be good to see 2003 version of Turtles again

[CyberCubed]

Very interested to see Lloyd Goldfine's 2k3 story and Ciro Nieli's 2012 story. It's so great that two of the main directors/writers from the two best TMNT cartoons get to tell another new story in their universes.

[Chaotix12345]

Wonder if they'll use this special to canonize mutated Hun as the 2k3 version of Slash like they originally intended to.

Would be good if that happens, but how many pages do you guys think each story will be?

[BornAgain]

This sounds great. Guess I’ll have to grab the Laird cover as he doesn’t seem to be involved with interiors but I’ll take what I can get. Fantastic team that they’ve pulled together for this book.

[Chaotix12345]

Another preview. Sounds like the Saturday Morning Adventures story is gonna be a short one, at only 4 pages.

[AlZarkovski]

All stories will be very short - there are 12 of them.

[M.O.D.O.K.]

I was expecting as much. Ciro Nieli mentioned the 2012 story would be 8 pages.

I wonder how long the 2003 and Rise stories will be.

So, will there be any resolution for the whole Donnie/April thing?

Asking for a friend.

[nidza_maj2000]

So I think plot for SMA story looks really good, I am also excited for other stories

[clockstomper]

Hopefully if people respond well to the 2K3 story, maybe they will do a Shredder War mini series.

Maybe the whole eight pages will be Donnie curing Mutagen Man back to Timothy. Get all the loose plot threads out of the way.

[darthsmozers]

How do I order this? Been out of the new comics game for a long time. Thank you.

Or have Renet show up in the Mad Max future and take them back to fix it. I could do with either one.

Looks like mine shipped the 24th. Wish there was tracking. If it really went out that day or the next (via eBay so not always immediate of course), possible it could show up today or tomorrow.

[nidza_maj2000]

This previews are really good, this looks like it will be really good comic collection and about SMA story, here:

Spoiler:

So I don't know why Raphael looks like to be bored fighting crime, while he is right that it takes a lot of time maybe they are still heroes
