Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - General Discussion

Campbell is officially off the book at issue #150.

While this is certainly good news, I don’t know if the formerly excellent series can recover from the damage done. Let’s hope.

I stopped reading at #125 just due to budgeting. I don't have as strong a negative vibe towards Campbell as some seem to have developed.
I will read the rest when TMNT HC vol.16 & 17 come out.
I'll be curious to see if the next issue is #151 or #1 though. I'm rooting for 151!!

I don't understand what Campbell did wrong?

Can someone explain?

Okay...not too excited that it says that the first issue for Last Ronin II is end of February/March and the second issue is in May.

Personally, I don't think it was really her fault. I think she was given the unenviable position of being a placeholder until they could come up with what was next, and coupled with bad art the book fell off because of it.

The main ongoing TMNT book will officially end with #150.

I'm a bit bummed to hear this. As the longest running title it holds a place, for reasons other than numbering, or places in TMNT publishing lore for the franchise.
If they are going to reboot the mythology again it will be a bit sad as things like MutantTown were an out growth of all the development before and now we won't see what development could've been like after.

I assume we will get the Dlx HCs that finish off the run. Should be about 2 more volumes, 3 at most.

[Seth_Brower]

they way they are messaging it, it seems like it's either a "start fresh with a new #1 and keep the same continuity" or a "take a break from the mainline book but branch off to more focused mini-series in the same continuity" type deal.

[thwhtGuardian]

Man, if they do a reboot that would be a bummer; I was really looking forward to seeing the Turtles relationship with Shredder grow.

[DanMad1977]

I read that its really ending. Over and out. But we shouldn't worry, a reboot is in the works, and many more...

Sad. She title is the most consistent title at the market in terms of continuity, storytelling and most of all characterization. The story must go forward and not reboot.

This is definitely the wrong decision.

Bleeding Cool: Rumor: Jason Aaron To Write The New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1

[DanMad1977]

Instead of being proud of making it to 150 consecutive issues, not counting the minis and whatnot, they decide to end it and start anew. That's just sad.

The bar is pretty high, it can only go wrong. I am miserable, it was my favorite comic for years and years.

I know, right?! I felt the same way when Erik Larsen came along, but I thought it turned out pretty well (IMHO):

[thwhtGuardian]

Well at least it's just a relaunch and not a reboot, so I'm pretty excited.
