TMNT #8, TMNT Infestation #1 & 2 - Page 6

Other than both Mikey and cannolis being awesome...?

....No, not really, but if he can make it happen, he'll be on that list of awesomeness too.

All --

Thanks so much for the many kind words about issue #7. Really happy so many of you enjoyed the issue and wanted to give you another teaser page from issue #8 to hold you over until that issue is available next month (you may notice a bit of a cameo appearance from our micro-series books in panel 3). As always, fantastic artwork from the Dan Duncan/Ronda Pattison super-team!

Again... thanks for your continued interest and support!

Best,

Tom Waltz

Ah, I was wondering when we'd see Alopex again. I thought she got lost in the shuffle.

No joke! Dan draws a mean Alopex. Can't wait to see what her story really is.

I really really can't wait for #8 now. Other than #5 creating an anomaly by being the best issue of the series so far, every issue is better than the last. Wonder when we'll peak.

The day i said IDW might not be using Alopex in the main book yet, that teaser made me eat my words.
Thanks Tom

Toby Barrett · 02-22-2012, 06:32 PM

That's great!

I was really hoping we'd see Alopex again soon!

Buffy · 02-22-2012, 11:31 PM

Nice to see Alopex in the main comic!

*CyberCubed* · 02-24-2012, 09:43 PM

Since this issue apparently ends the Mouser story arc, Tom said the next arc goes up to issue 12 if I remember correctly.

Since we know Shredder debuts in #10, what will the build-up be before hand? We know a lot of this issue still has to do with Krang and Baxter.

I can't imagine the Turtles traveling through space just yet, so will the Neutrino war still be off-screen as the Turtles come into contact with Foot soldiers?

*Cowabunga Carl* · 02-27-2012, 12:47 PM

I'm looking forward to seeing the wrap up of General Krang and the Baxter story. Somethings got to happen to end that. I don't see Old Hob sticking with Baxter long term, hope something breaks there too.

*ToTheNines* · 02-29-2012, 09:31 PM

This just in.

TMNT: Infestation part 1 is going to be delayed a week in some areas of the country, but not all.

I saw a post about this on the IDW Forums today but I can't find any additional information out about the delay. All my sources and every major comic site still has this listed for 3/7 with no mention of a delay. Do you have a source for this delay info? I'd like to nail down exactly which areas might be impacted by the delay. Thanks ToTheNines!

*CyberCubed* · 03-01-2012, 10:44 PM

I wonder if TMNT #8 will be better than 6-7. Seems to bring things to a close and begin the next full story.

Grahamcrackers.com doesn't have this comic listed for their next week releases.

As of now, the Grahamcrackers.com list for March 7 doesn't have any IDW comics shown for release next week. Infestation 2: TMNT isn't even listed on their site so I'm not sure that they are a very reliable source (but thanks for response Buffy

)

Diamond, ComicList, and ComiXology all still show March 7. I have this on my pull list so it will be interesting to see if it comes in to my local shop.

Bobby Curnow · 03-02-2012, 02:55 PM

Yeah, all of our comics for that week got hit by the shipping mishap, so if you're in the half of the country affected, no IDW comics for you that week.

Everything should be there the following week though.

(I have no info on what the mishap actually was, or what stores are or aren't affected)

**Jester** · 03-02-2012, 04:32 PM

Still on the fence about buying Infestation. Anyone else in this boat?

I read Mark's review of it, but then I went ahead and flipped through Infestation #1 out of curiosity. That was pretty much the end of it though. It went back on the shelf for good. I will be getting the TMNT issues, of course. I commend IDW for making each title a self-contained story rather than forcing us to buy crossover issues to read the whole Turtles story.

I rather enjoyed Infestation: Ghostbusters.

Toby Barrett · 03-02-2012, 04:43 PM

Yeah, I'll only be buying the TMNT issues as well.

Those are the ones I'm on the fence about... the 2 Turtle issues. Then again, it is just 2 issues.

Graham Crackers Comics is in Chicago... maybe the Eastern half of the country is S.O.L.
