Nightwatcher (I thought this was a mini, but apparently ongoing?)

Turtles Alpha (a few one-shots I believe?)

Karai mini-series (announced long ago)

Turtle one-shots for Raph/Leo/Mike/Don

etc.

Besides Saturday Morning Adventures and The Last Ronin II which is even more comics coming out alongside the main series as well.

I don't know how many people are actually going to buy most of this every month.

Alpha is a single issue, the 'one-shots' are issues 1-4 of the new ongoing and BWG is just a miniseries going by the announcement and solicitation.

Yeah, it goes like this.

FCBD & "Alpha" one-shot are prologues for new Era.

Then we get 3 ongoings:
- Main title from Aaron about TMNT (first 4 issues are about each turtle, then - regular arcs)
- "Nightwatcher" presumably about Jennika (sure that it's not Raph, not 'main' Raph at least)
- "Mutant Nation" from Waltz, Campbell, etc about other characters (companion series a la "Universe")

"Black, White & Green" is presumably non-canon anniversary anthology or at least a series of stories from different universes like 30th Anniversary Special was. As for reference look for different "Black, White & Red/Blood" minis from Marvel & DC.

P.S. I guess, "Untold Destiny" is part of the #100-150 era, cause it most likely will be collected in 18th volume of IDW Collection.

All correct except that UDFC will not be in the hardbacks with the current run as Volume 18 ends with #150, Sophie has previously provided me the breakdown for 17 and 18.

Still unclear if that series is IDW universe or not. If it was say Mirage, I think they would be making a bigger deal out of it saying "new Mirage stories from IDW."

Personally, I think with the way they word the blurb it'll just be whatever the talent want to do. Like just back-to-back Elseworlds-type material. No specific TMNT universe.

Oh, good. Just what has been missing all of this time.

Probably just me being hopeful but I would be cool with the future Raph from the 2023 Annual as Nightwatcher

Very curious to see cover A, as this doesn't really hype me for the start of a new volume and initiative. Donnie? Cool. Old Hob and a spider? Okay???

Is that... Big Mama, from Rise?

I think its Lindsey from the IDW run. If not, it's just a mutant spider, doubtful it's any character from Rise.

Fairly certain you're correct as last time we saw Lindsey her hand was insectoid and when I asked Sophie recently about this being followed up her response was 'Stay tuned', implying that we'd find out sooner rather than later.

I kinda hope they do a Brundlefly sequence with her.

Letting someone blow her head off with a shotgun? Most characters introduced in the past four years should be up for that.

[Ninjinister]

Krang looks so much better on the collected cover than his own Best of issue cover. Not great, but better.

For everyone who beat their dicks on how "bad" April's was (when it was just dull), they all somehow missed out on how fugly Krang's was.

Looks like Jenny is definitely sticking around:

She will also appear in TMNT Saturday Morning Adventures with other Turtles from multiverse that will appear

Dear god no, please god no.

[Bahamut810]

How many people can brag that their OC is now part of main continuity?

Why not? I think she deserved to be part of this, I haven't read much of TMNT IDW comic book but from what I have she seems like a good character and like I said she will be in crossover which might make people appreciate her more
