Microseries #8: The Fugitoid!

*CyberCubed* · 05-30-2012, 04:22 PM

Bobby has revealed #8 of the Micros will be Fugitoid!

His new design is kinda neat.

*TurtleTitan97* · 05-30-2012, 04:24 PM

Awesome! Totally loving the new design.

1984TMNT · 05-30-2012, 04:36 PM

That's awesome! Wonder how they are going to tie that into the current universe....Seems like Fugitoid/Professor HoneyCutt (if that's indeed who he is here) will somehow be tied to wherever Krang is from, perhaps?

*CyberCubed* · 05-30-2012, 04:45 PM

Fugitoid probably built the teleportal device that Krang is using to go from Earth to the Neutrino planet.

*DrSpengler* · 05-30-2012, 04:47 PM

I was about to say.

In the past, the Fugitoid's whole deal was "they're always after me lucky teleportal!"

But in IDW, the villains already have one. So now what's he going to be fugitoiding about?

Fugitoid may be already held prisoner somewhere in Burnow Island. Would be interesting to see the Turtles break into the compound, stumble upon him, and try to take him away to safety as the Rock Soldiers come after him.

That's cover B and it doesn't say fugitoid on it. He may not be the title character in this issue. Still cool to see him.

*Oculus Orbus* · 05-30-2012, 05:24 PM

Awesome. I miss the old design already, but I have to admit that the new one is not bad at all. Can't wait to read it.

I am pretty excited for this as well.

I really like that cover, and the design appeals to me as new yet familiar.

Best description of the 'Toid, EVER!

So this will be when we find out that Chet is indeed Professor Chet Honeycutt

Bobby Curnow already confirmed this on the IDW forums and the letter section of #10. Besides, why would he be on the cover of someone else's solo issue?

I was afraid he wouldn't show up, he's not technically a tmnt character, he's just mirage and you know copyright crap. I'm glad he's appearing and getting his own issue thought. And he could have been an instrumental character in someone else's story, I mean it wouldn't be surprising if they put alopex on Raphaels variant.

"Silly Triceratons, Transmats are for Utroms and mutant turtles."

Since the main villain already has a transmat, as previously mentioned, maybe he himself is the weapon that the Triceratons, the Federation or villains-of-the-month are seeking? Either way, his role might mean the Triceratons can finally show up, so let us hope. (Though, if Krang wanted him, as well, would be equally awesome.)

He may have started off that way, but as Laird mentioned on his blog at some point, Fugitoid has become too intertwined within the pages of TMNT and was sold along with the turtles in 2009.

That's not a bad point about Alopex, but I would still wager that she would only appear alongside Raphael, if it was a Raphael issue. Still, anything's possible with variants...

I love the new design, by the way! Can't wait to see Petersen's rendition!

*CyberCubed* · 05-30-2012, 09:26 PM

Fugitoid has been a TMNT character ever since his inclusion in issue #5 of the Mirage run.

*Jephael* · 05-30-2012, 09:38 PM

I like the new body he's got, but I'm not really digging the helmet-head frame of his face.

*CyberCubed* · 05-30-2012, 09:54 PM

I think its good how his new design seems fresh yet he's still recognizable as the Fugitoid rather than looking like any other generic robot.

This is truly hella awesome, PUMPED
