TMNT #24 Preview/Discussion

TomWaltz · 07-22-2013, 12:11 PM

All --

Thanks so much to everyone who came out to support IDW and TMNT at SDCC this year! Had a blast and the positive energy and feedback from all the wonderful TMNT fans was awesome!

As you may know, issue #24 comes out Wednesday. IDW should be posting a 7-page preview in the next day or so, but for now, please check out this two page preview (pages 1 and 2) from #24 -- just a little token of appreciation from yours truly for your continued support and encouragement. I think you'll agree -- Mateus and Ronda continue to make beautiful art together. Very excited for you all to see and read this issue!

Talk soon...

Tom W.

EDIT: Just noticed I put #23 instead of #24 in the subject line. Oy. Consider that SDCC lag.

Moderators -- any way you can fix that for me? Thanks! Tom

I love the Cityfall storyline, I think the IDW series has finally hit its stride.

I'm glad you guys already have stories planned out till issue #50...especially since those issues won't come out till 2014-2015.

*Rooish* · 07-22-2013, 12:40 PM

I agree, it's hit it's stride for sure.

I hope the Turtles keep getting developed! There are so many characters to juggle.

Ahhh, I think my prediction was spot on...

I dunno Tazi, Slash has a pretty good nose for mutant turtles.

Lord Nightwalker · 07-22-2013, 05:47 PM

Could be because they have Leo. And he's working with them at the moment. lol. Things are going well Tom! Keep up the good work!

dude you should sign up for the Olympics because you covered some distance jumping to that conclusion.

*Coola Yagami* · 07-22-2013, 07:54 PM

Love to see that they gave Karai DAT ASS. lol

No but seriously, the story is getting good, but I do hope we get to see some actual City Fall in this issue.

He wants the turtles to find him. Hob told the turtles where he's at. Alopex viewed the foot as her family cause that's their recruiting/brainwash method. Hob expressed need for a family in his micro. The only thing that doesn't add up is Hobs hatred for humans.

You're pretty new to this forum aren't you?

His pre-mutation family threw him out. His gang let him down. The Foot Clan beat his ass. Baxter shot him...

Makes sense to me.

I was suggesting Hob is leading the Tmnt to where Leo supposedly is on Shredders behalf. Since he craves acceptance, the foot offers this and Saki us confident that they'll show up. The only thing that makes me question this is hob hating humans.

*ToTheNines* · 07-23-2013, 12:37 PM

My bad, I misunderstood. I don't think you're right though. Like I said, Slash is probably just gonna sniff him out.

corvus · 07-23-2013, 01:29 PM

and how does shredder even know that slash exists?

martinitolove · 07-24-2013, 01:23 PM

Have just read issue 24 of the marvellous IDW series! Design wise Leonardo became Slash (katana, claw and dark red colour). Slash always looked like Tokka - a mindless friendly lovable beast. So as Bebop & Rocksteady are arriving soon and there won't be a comic without Leatherhead, I HOPE FOR RAHZAR coming back! Please, IDW

And keep up the good work and Santoluco!

How could you have read #24? We were told it wasn't coming out until next week.

A couple of lucky ones downloaded it off comixology. It's since been removed.

Not sure why that's funny, to be honest. A person joins the forum and decides to post when they have something to say -- isn't that how it works? I know a lot of you are regulars on here and I think your consistency and loyalty is awesome (and very much appreciated), but I see nothing wrong with new folks joining the fun... and being able to do so without being chastised by their fellow fans. We all gotta start somewhere, right?

The more the merrier, I say! Let's build this big green machine into something massive and mighty!

There just wasn't much point to start a new thread when there is already a thread for #24.

Everything else you said I agree with

It was released a week early due to a mix up, some Comixology users managed to get their paid copy before the issue was resolved. It's legit.
