This is cool. I wonder if I can find my old TMNT art? My art was only Eastman/Laird oriented style. I just prefer the TMNT look like the way the were drawn. I used to draw alot in Jr High and High school.

That is a fantastic question, that I won't pretend to have the answer to. Once the book is is production, we will have a clearer idea as to where we might be able to distribute it.

This is a really cool idea. Fandom at it's best. Not to mention there will likely be some really great art or story content. I gotta get to the drawing table!

Basically the profiles would be the last section with reference page numbers to any other art, fiction, etc that you might have throughout the rest of the book.

I'll see what I can come up with. Will try to make it fun.

Is it gonna be in color or be like Mirage stuff black and white pages?

most likely the art section will be color, while the stories and bios (being mostly text) will be black and white.

This morning I awoke to roughly 50 emails in my inbox wondering if the book is still greenlit in light of the Viacom buyout. As you can imagine, that is our primary concern right now, and I had stayed mostly silent on the subject because I frankly didn’t know. I can tell you that I recieved this from Dan Berger this morning in regards to the fan book project:

I’m afraid I don’t know. Mirage’s stance on the project may not be the same as Nick’s, and I have no idea what they would do about it. I’m afraid the only way to find out would be to contact them – and unfortunately I don’t have any contact info for them at this time (don’t know if I ever will). I’m sorry.

GoGreenMachine is doing everything in our power to open those lines of communication, and will keep you as up to date as we possibly can.

Just wondering... If you sell the book obviously you need some sort of permission, but if you just release the book for free and do not make any profit do you still need permission?

Probably not. I don't know for sure. But then you'd be talking about 100% digital distribution...because I don't have the extra capital to eat the cost of proper publishing. If I did, I would.

Lordmylar06 · 10-23-2009, 12:58 PM

Man, this is unfortunate timing for the fan-book. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you Archon! Hopefully Nickelodeon will be open to it, since it was kind of a done deal before the buyout. I say kind of because I'm not sure of the official status of the deal you made with Mirage.

*Spitfire* · 10-23-2009, 01:16 PM

I got quite a bit of stuff I can add to this I'll see what I can do.

Take donations. I'd gladly eat tar soup for a week to donate something for this.

I am working on some stuff too, keep us posted..

Zechs · 11-03-2009, 12:05 AM

A friend and I are going to submit a short comic for the piece. Here's hoping it gets in. Oh and it won't need to be colored. It's going to be b&w and a nice homage to vol. 1. Of course the being who it centers on will be the Shredder.

BoggleKng · 11-08-2009, 07:43 PM

any updates, Stephan?

~~Lieutenant Granitor~~ · 11-08-2009, 09:41 PM

Can I e-mail any plot ideas?

Lordmylar06 · 12-06-2009, 01:41 AM

It's been a while since I've heard any news on this subject. Is the fan book still a possibility, even in maybe a digital format? I was/am looking forward to seeing this stuff.

BoggleKng · 12-23-2009, 09:32 AM

any news or is this project dead?
