....
what is on # 97?issue#4 perhaps??....hey, I thaught about it again today, it's such a great time to be a turtles fan..think about it what wonderful things tmnt we have gotten in the last few years..there was the superb 2k3 show which only got better to me up to seasons 4(haven't seen many episodes of btts, and know half of fast forward:not bad, but not my kinda beer), then the new movie which grows on more and more to me nowerdays(it realls is great, when I saw it at the movies I had mixed feelings, but now I can follow the positive feelings without anything holding me back any longer), my favourite project was turtles forever...I have seen it so often and I still just love it....and now new great comic line, with micro and infestation specials and quality reprints of books I haven't had the pleasure yet to get myself over here(well in future reprint books at least)...and the new show comming next year with toys that shall be awesome(or should I write SHELL be awesome?

..)...and the live action movie in the pocket...whew, I love being a turtle!!

Is that impressive? #97? I don't know how many comics IDW does. If that's good, I'm happy

*Kendamu* · 12-11-2011, 07:37 PM

It's really good considering that it's not a Marvel or DC title.

Hardly any titles that aren't one of the big two make it into the top 100. This is the 2nd or 3rd time the TMNT have courtesy IDW.

Congrats!

That's alright I guess. 2 of the titles below it are X-23 which was canceled for poor sales. I guess it's neat it broke the top 100 but the comics industry as a whole isn't doing so well. Not a lot of titles left.

*CyberCubed* · 12-11-2011, 09:45 PM

Its IDW's top selling book. The fact that it sells more than anything else IDW is putting out ensures it won't be canceled unless catastrophe strikes.

We get it, you don't like the new book. Doesn't mean you can't be happy that for the first time ever turtle comic sales are that good.

The original series sold very well and was a completely independent title. I never said the series was gonna be canned IDW clearly doesn't gauge success on the same level as DC and Marvel. Me not liking it has nothing to do with it. I'm not gonna throw a party for the book making #97 on a top 100 list.

Correct. IDW doesn't gauge its success the same way DC or Marvel does. TMNT is the top selling non-DC/Marvel title. That's why #97 is good.

As far as not being DC/Marvel

BTVS SEASON 9 FREEFALL #3 .... 64
Walking Dead #91......................68
TMNT #4..................................97

I would say yeah this is effing nice for IDW!!!
