The forces of good and evil marshal on multiple fronts as the 'Sins of the Fathers' arc begins! Casey Jones' worsening home life tempts Raph to dangerous action- and Splinter decides to set a new course for his son's way of life. Plus, what dark secret is the Shredder hiding - even from his own Clan?! Change is afoot!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Micro-series #7: April O'Neil
(W) Barbara Kesel (A) Marley Zarcone (CA) David Petersen, Marley Zarcone
April O'Neil's life has been turned upside down in the aftermath of meeting the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Rather than running from the choas, April decides to meet it head-on. Determined to make a difference, April starts to investigate suspicious circumstances at Stockgen Labs. What she finds will have serious repercussions for herself... and the Turtles!

Looks pretty awesome! cant wait for the next few issues

Great news!

I like how all these supporting characters are starting to get featured on the TMNT ongoing covers.

The issue #13 solicit kinda kills some of the possible suspense I had over Splinter's fate in the current storyline. But "Sins of the Fathers" sounds like an interesting arc if it's gonna highlight Casey.

The April O'Neil cover & solicit intrigues me. I assume she'll be trying to swipe some Mutagen ooze as legal evidence against Stockman or else as something for Donatello to study. The sinister looking figure in silhouette has got me curious. My guess is Old Hob (assuming he lives long enough to survive the current arc, that is!).

Also, cover for ongoing #14 is up on the IDW forums:

Awesome! Really looking forward to all the Micros! Kind of a nitpick, but why is Casey Jones' full name being used for his issue but April's is just April? Seems a little weird...

It is kinda nitpicking, but I'll admit that I thought the same thing when I saw the title!

They are not using his full name that would be Arnold Casey Jones.

Anybody know the release date for the April Micro?

*CyberCubed* · 05-18-2012, 05:50 PM

April looks like a DC or Marvel character in that pic.

Ah, who's nitpicking now?! Haha well, how about full moniker then? I'm sure you know what I'm gettin' at... Why not call the Micro Casey then? Ah well, it doesn't really bug me, just couldn't help but notice!

Anyway, Arnold was his name in Mirage, but who knows in IDW!

Looks like Barbara Gordon. Hopefully this will be better than the current Batgirl book (yuck!) I cant believe I wanted to see Gail's TMNT.

I just realized we have girls writing and drawing the April Micro! Awesome!

Hey, cool! Very few women have ever been credited with drawing the TMNT! Actually, I can't think of any in US comics, come to think of it.

*Jephael* · 05-18-2012, 08:25 PM

Awesome covers! For the first time I'm going to have to obtain two variants of a Mirco Series comic. BTW, I'm a little confused by the title of this thread. Where does the number 13 come in here? We haven't even gotten that far into the series yet.

What? Did you even bother to read...anything? This thread is for issue # 13 of the main series and Micro-series #7: April O'Neil

*Jephael* · 05-18-2012, 08:38 PM

Yea, I figured that out like a few moments before I read your post, Samhaim. I've been skimming over a lot of posts lately, hence the little mistake. In my defense though, people should really use the word AND or some variation of the word (&/+) instead of a stupid comma when talking about more than one item.
