Oh wow that's a pretty nice gallery. Didn't even know about it!

[azrael]

Thats cool, thanks to both of you.

You guys know when the IDW covers will be posted?

[Cryomancer]

Karai loses a daughter during her first part in Mirage, but in the tales future story, she has a granddaughter, correct? Obviously, there are years missing here where things could happen, but there is also that night with Casey...are there implications that he is the father of the mother of this future daughter?

Oh brain, why do you make me ask these things?

[Powder]

Far as I know there is nothing whatsoever that implies that.
Whether or not that's what happened is anyones guess, though, as vol. 4 still hangs in the realm of the unknown.

Whyyyy does the standard TMNT III movie comic have more pages than the hand-colored prestige edition? I find that really...backwards.

I guess I'm not really expecting anyone to know why it was done that way, just venting some frustration. Some of those splash pages are awesome and would look great with the prestige colors.

(Also, score on getting the both of those for like $4 total including shipping. Mirage has them priced at $10 and $15...)

[azrael]

would someone help with making a digital comic from the IDW series and possibly Image? I have the issue in hand I collect comics and thought it would be cool to have a digital series to take with me (on my laptop) I have gotten the rest of different series through other means, along with IDW's issue 1.

These would be for my personal computer and yours too since you would basically be doing the work.

I dont think its illegal to make a "back up" If we can get a team together it would be great. I have issue 1 of idw along with the mirage series I believe I am missing 2 of vol 4.

Let me know what you guys think, of course we could not post any links so that people that did not support it won't get it for free.

It is illegal dude.


My question for the thread-

Trying to recall, did the turtles ever go to Roswell & deal with area 51 type stuff? I know they did in 2k3...

I wouldn't know, but If they did, I bet it would be during the "guest issue" period of Vol. 1.

Volume 2, Archie?

[LeoNerdo]

They definitely did in the Archie Adventures Series.

Edit: Issue #60

Well, in volume 2 the gang along with nobody, casey, and a telepath travel to a secret government location to save the kidnapped Raph. He was being held there for research along with a bunch of aliens including a triceraton, culminating in a large triceraton, army, ninja showdown.

which leads me to my question...
Spoiler* Nobody dies by being harpooned from some random, giant plant alien thing in a cave beneath the secret base. -Always thought it was a terrible end for the character.
I was wondering if anyone knows if Nobody ever made another appearance or if his death was ever really addressed by the turtles?

I just read vol. 2 in it's entirety this week, for the first time. I'd say where they went was close enough, but I literally mean area 51. Not something akin to it. Should've been more specific though, I meant within Mirage only... Like, Tales or something. That part of Archie ruled though.

Having just seen that yesterday, I can totally agree. Horrible abrubt ending to a pretty decent character. I was going to ask the same question...

April very briefly took the identity of Nobody in TMNT (Vol. 4) #23 (and I'm talking for all of five minutes; it was kinda stupid).

Shortly after that, the "real" Nobody returned in Tales of the TMNT (Vol. 2) #60, though with a completely new personality (where originally he was a Batman parody, he became a Superman parody).

None of the characters were ever shown grieving or even really caring at all that Nobody had died in any of the issues published in-between. Yeah, his death in Vol. 2 always kinda bugged me for how meaningless it was.

I wasn't even aware of this! I've never compared them side-by-side. What's missing?

I guess that's morbidly appropriate, given his symbolism.

Mirage really dropped the ball with the Nobody character, even though they tried to right the ship in their twilight years... it just made the situation worse.

Lotta pinup/splash pages. Here's one:

To answer the original question, yes. You can have personal backups of books just like with CDs and DVDs. (Technically, under the DMCA, backups of CDs and DVDs are on shaky ground, but nobody’s ever been busted for making personal backups. And the DMCA does not apply to traditional dead-tree books.)

(1) It’s not illegal to copy the book into a PDF by yourself and then upload it to your Nook. Personal use (at least for books) is strongly favored by American copyright law, and practically speaking, no one else would ever even know, because it would only be between you and your Nook.

(2) It’s arguably not illegal to download the book in PDF form from a website and upload it to your Nook. Again, this is pretty personal use, although if the relevant authorities ever got ahold of that server’s logs, they might make your life rather miserable. You’d be hard pressed to prove that you already owned the book at the time, but assuming you could, you’d be pretty safe.

from a law student, I excluded the torrent part of his post because I am not talking about that, I am simply saying for our personal use (the ones that ownthe physical book.)

Its no more illegal than buying a cd then coping it to your ipod.

Q: Does anyone know which specific episodes of the 2k3 series are based(closely or loosely) on story arcs from the comics?

Here ya go!

Is TMNT the Arcade game (the 4 player cabinet) available on the Playstation Network?

and if not, do you think there is any chance of getting it ported?

It's not available, no. I suppose it's possible it could be released but I would have thought it would have happened by now: apparently it was released on Xbox Live Arcade in 2007. The NES port was due to turn up on the Wii Virtual Console but that's never happened either.
