Been told this has slipped a week again to 1st October.
Yep, this one and the Deluxe. Also, the 2012 Annual Deluxe. All 3 have been moving out a week at a time for some time now…not sure what the delays are.
I picked up this comic on Comixolgy in digital format & it looks amazing. Really looking forward to the 2nd annual with the (re)introduction of Renet 🙂
Is this avalaible for pre-order? I was unable to find it on IDW’s Limited website.
This is being distributed by Diamond…just like the regular IDW TMNT titles. You can pre-order it through your local comic shop…but hurry, June solicitation pre-sales only go through the end of March. It’s possible that IDW Limited may be selling this as well but if they do it likely won’t be until June.
IDW Limited’s FB page just posted pics of KE dropping stuff off at IDW. I’m not sure but I think he is signing the Deluxe HC 2012 Annual books.

And it seems like IDW will be selling the pre lim pages for the 2012 Annual at some point. If that is true, SWEET!
WOW! sticking it to the hard core fans!
Are you picking this one up too? (I’m leaning towards you are, but safer to ask rather than assume…)
Yep, I’ll be picking this up. It’s pricey but hopefully will be cool. The only thing I didn’t pick up was the blue and black label IDW limited books. Those were just too much to justify.
