TMNT vol 4 issue 29 - Page 5

cormano · 04-14-2008, 07:36 PM

Goddamn, I'm late. I just ordered it, but I'm guessing I'm waaaay too late for the signed copies. I have a signed reprint of #1 from the art contest, but the sketch isn't nearly as involved as the ones in the pic. Oh well, I'm excited for the comic, I may have to go re-read the last couple issues, though.

Hey, I'm not gonna argue. I'd love it if Vol. 4 keeps going, but like Andrew said, Vol. 4 has been nothing but one big storyline so far. Here's hoping Peter picks up a new storyline beginning with #41.

About the logo, I didn't think the one on the last issue of vol 4 was all that great, but the current one is truly awful and says nothing about the characters.
I really liked the TMNT logo from the ring of green community, something like that would be cool, sharp like a blade.
I opted to order the issue anyway, having it in your hand is the only way to fead a comic book in my opinion.

While we're talking about the logo, I've never really liked the standard Vol. 4 logo at all. It's got "TMNT" in fairly bland arrangement, but then what's worse is that it literally spells out "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" beneath the "TMNT"... begging the question, why even bother putting "TMNT" there at all?

I'd much prefer the dynamic Vol. 4 #28 "TMNT" logo with no "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" beneath it. The look of it suits the future/aliens/sci-fi angle of the entire volume and without the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" under it the "TMNT" can be left to our imagination to fill in with "Thirtysomething Mutant Ninja Turtles" or what-have-you. Otherwise... it's like Superboy calling himself Superboy... even when he's 30 or 40. It's silly.

Heh, I refer to the Volume 4 Turtles as TMNT = The Mutant Ninja Turtles. Just my 2 pence.

This is what I tell people when they find out that the turtles are in their mid 30's. They're all like "But why does the book still call em Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?" I just tell em that TMNT now stands for The Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Well TMNT.com posted he signed about 175 as of today, and will do some more with time.

I know I am in the 200-225 mark, so hopefully I'll get lucky.

*Roseangelo* · 04-16-2008, 05:43 PM

Murph has now said that he's done 225.

soccerstud652 · 04-16-2008, 07:02 PM

You just made my week!!!

Edit: According to the blog, there were 225 orders by 10am Monday. So if you ordered before then, you should be set!

This is so cool! I was thinking about ordering the issue online, but I figure I'll just pick one up at ny comic con.

Newton Gimmick · 04-16-2008, 07:38 PM

Sadly I didn't see this until today so I ordered instantly. Hopefully I'll still end up with the picture/autograph as that'd be the perfect compliment to my collection and looks so nice. But if not, oh well I guess.

It figures the couple of days that I don't hit the TMNT website that this stuff hits and I completely miss out. But I'll keep my fingers crossed.

How would you know that?

soccerstud652 · 04-16-2008, 09:07 PM

By 10am monday, there were 225 orders. So if you ordered on Sat or Sunday, I'd say there is a good chance you are in that group.

See my above post for a quote that explains it.

The Shelf · 04-16-2008, 09:14 PM

My Paypal shipment tracking number that I got in my email said 99, so maybe that corresponds to what place you got in the order list? I ordered mine Friday, April 11th, so soccerstud's estimate sounds about right.
