How The IDW Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Comics ENDED (IDW Comics Moments)

[@THEOLDTURTLEDEN]

...stick around until the end of the video

[@joeo.6768]

With Armaggon solidified and Future Bob defeated and left in feudal Japan, I wonder when will we see them again?

[@johnwright-b2l]

The entire previous IDW tmnt run did a good job of exploring each member of the team as individuals.

[@user-sl6gn1ss8p]

Man, the whole Donatello recreating his family business always reminds me of MNT Gaiden so much, that was a great ride. Makes me wonder how Tigerfog and the people from the forums are doing.

[@ZigzMD]

Wow MNT Gaiden is a blast from the past! Haven’t checked in on it for a while now.

[@oscrmc8496]

Whatever happened to that story?

[@user-sl6gn1ss8p]

@@oscrmc8496 it had several hiatuses, due to burnout as well as work and other commitments, as far as I remember. For a while the author would give some updates through twitter etc, but at some point it went radio silent and eventually the page went down. Some people who followed the project closely said they heard from the guy a couple or maybe a few years back, but yeah, it's safe to say the project was abandoned. Someone compiled and stored it in the internet archive as well, so what was there was not lost at least.

[@JDELOU]

This amazing! Thank u so much. I'm from Brazil and it would cost a fortune to find all these comics. Thank u so very much, friend!

[@mauricecarroll243]

A site called StarForce Media reads narrates, sound effects, and voice acts comic books. They actually read and play out these comics. Blew my mind because comics cost too much. I'm not sure why they do it but I'm not complaining. It's called Star Force Media. They do not disappoint. I think they only did up to episode 100 but it's better than nothing

[@AngryAnimeFan2]

appreciate teh full summary. The IDW Turtles are awesoem and I agree, that it should be some kind of animational story is needed for this story. Although I still felt not so satisfied with this conclusion, although it will get a sequal series. Lila becoming human was oneo f the saddest moment, I needed that turtle girl. And now the first part of the Hamato Clans story has ended, and we have no idea what happes next. But, we saw the future, and maybe then it will become different. mystical and deep, well talked recap. One can understand it now.

[@KevinCarlino]

Wow, I have only been following your KZbin videos covering the series, haven't read the comics myself... what an incredible story.

[@undeadreborn4867]

I was today years old when i learned TMNT had an IDW comic like sonic and megaman.

[@BusinessOfFear]

You're way behind😂

[@tadashi03]

Thank you for these recaps and looking forward to more vids!

[@sayonarakid]

Congrats for the new podcast! it will be great! My favorite tmnt is probably idw. But the Matheus Santolouco run. I loved his art to death and for me it was the most memorable moments of the idw version. But overall is kinda hard to say if it really is my favorite. Every comic, cartoon movie or whatever is a unique universe and most are very cool. I love some of the cartoons too like Rise of the tmnt and the latest movie Mutant Mayhen. Its all great and its own stuff.

[@anthonyjones9010]

I stopped at #100.

[@WookWook89]

I dont know if you read the new #1 but it has a great strong start and interesting premise

[@anthonyjones9010]

@@WookWook89 Alright! I’ll check it out since I haven’t read any other TMNT stories, except for the black, white and green.

[@BusinessOfFear]

Most people should have. Hopefully the new #1 is better than the last 50 issues

[@Deoxy360]

Thank you for posting this video, now I've got an idea on how the previous run ended.

[@samuraiforever9120]

i am sad that Letta was demutated meaning she lost her future and connection to her family sure was likely taken else where. but the legacy bob took was a dick move. while i am also sad to see venus gone. but either this will be revisited someda.

[@thegreygoblin5165]

I mean, this is still a comic book and things could be either ret-conned or changed. There's also nothing to say she couldn't be re-mutated in some fashion.

[@simsgirlgem]

@@thegreygoblin5165I hope so I don’t want her going back to her parents who abandoned her for mutating the first time

[@aashirali2172]

Venus's death was really sad and yeah Lita's demutation was a dick move but I think they'll somehow manage to find a way to turn her back in the future Otherwise it's just gonna create huge plot holes... If she doesn't mutate again there won't be a Lita in the future to help the present Donnie...

[@BilingualRainbow]

Up until the end, the IDW turtles run was far and away my favorite comic run ever. The rat king story ending in such a lackluster way with the lost pantheon brother showing up and just sort of ending everything, was real lazy writing. And then all the time travel stuff with Donnie felt out of place. Time travel is something i hate, i know others love it, but I just did not like the final arc at all. Venus was great, though. Really hope she comes back.

[@elijahbowers1]

Looking forward to this because I originally dropped after issue 51 and am interested in possibly finishing it.

[@micahmx6002]

I love how everything comes back full circle

[@jermaineslaughter2641]

Loved this though I am tight on my finances at the moment I will the latest tmnt comics in the future. I was amused listening this.

[@JuanPaez-x6q]

I thought at the end he was going to say that the last ronin movie got a release date😢

[@RetroMango]

I love where they are going with this series they closed it out pretty well

[@Jebbtube]

Man, I never realized how baller the comics were.

[@TGOSE-v7y]

It Is Almost Over

[@jeffwolcott7815]

[@gilgamesh.....]

To me the ending was very anticlimactic. It didn't have any big buildup or payoff. It just seemed to happen and then stop. It felt rushed or not well thought out.

[@allendepacheco3419]

It's likely the relaunch was last minute deal between IDW and Nick renewing their rights and the writers (mainly Sophie Campbell) didn't knew until was too late. Like out of the last few arcs, Armageddon Games feels like the true final arc of the 2011 run. You have all the villains working together and all the heroes uniting for one final clash. By the time the game was over, there's only one villain left and he was quickly dealt with in the following issues. The ending felt so sudden because it was sudden. Sophie likely planned to make more arcs or plant seeds for future writers to make their own arcs and they would expect TMNT will move on pass 150. It can also explain how there's a sequel to 2011 TMNT during the same year 2011 "ended" because 2011 didn't truly end. 2011 is still on going with a time skip, and IDW just wanted to bring the turtles back to their roots with a new writer. A lot of people didn't like Sophie since she made the comics less action oriented and focus on other characters aside the main 4 in their main series, and while the series did picked up speed and became more action oriented, a lot of readers already dropped the series. (I'm a bit of a minority where I actually like Sophie's comic in terms of expanding the side characters, but I understand people's frustrations of the series becoming more slice of life fanfiction). IDW wanted to bring old readers back and intrigue new readers with a relaunch. So far, a lot of people really enjoy Jason Aaron run of TMNT along with new side comics like Mutant Nation, so the relaunch is just a marketing ploy

[@gilgamesh.....]

@@allendepacheco3419 Armageddon Game is what I see as the ending. Everything after that is just an epilogue.

[@BankkeyAoshi]

Much love.💪🏾💙

[@raphandmikeyandrenetandbishop]

2:14 is my favorite tmnt

[@paulshipper143]

Everytime he mention a shark, I'm thinking.. jumping the shark.

[@Ucey365]

Wow Sophie really crashed the ship. Her artwork is good, her writing is not.

[@thevioletskull8158]

It hasn't yet ended; it will get a refurbishment. Also idk of this is a hot take but I did not like Bob. To me wasn't interesting as a villan even with all his powers,I feel like anyone else would of been better. If you like him that fine though.

[@spacersam8570]

Issues 1-100 are top notch. Don’t like the stuff after 100 though

[@TheGodOfWarhammer]

Does anyone else believe that the turtles need beaks?

[@CrazyC19]

Can’t wait for more turtles!

[@joeo.6768]

Lita being retro-mutated in issue 149 was disappointing at first, I wish to see her as a mutant turtle again someday, even if just once more.

[@RoyleVegeta]

0.15 with the group shit what's it called I want it for my pc wallpaper

[@JunoJ0911]

Uhh I adore that they made Venus like, the most consequential character in the whole series …

[@RickiTikkiTavi]

It's interesting what they did but I think the "everyone is reincarnated and fated to fight" stuff was just way out there. TMNT works best when they're little turtles that fell into a sewer, and Splinter saved them before getting hit with mutagen. Human Splinter makes way more sense for him being a ninja master and for Shredder to have a history with Splinter as well.

[@FrenzyFanboy]

Are these comics worth reading?

[@BusinessOfFear]

The first 100 issues are solid

[@Lynxan]

Nooo…. Spoilers!!! (On the real, have to skip, I recently got the whole run digitally and had to say this for the timing of this popping up as I am working though it.)

[@vincently1995]

What will it happen?

[@robertmarrazzo7643]

Loved this run! Can’t wait for the relaunch. Thanks for the amazing content that you always provide! 1 question, at the end we see Lita in human form. We know she turns back to a turtle at some point because we’ve seen future Lita. Any predictions how she turned back into a turtle? Do you think it will ever be discussed?

[@stephanc6138]

wonder if that first jatched turtle was Donatello. and 1. the last ronin was micheal angelo's story. 2. this was donatello's will we jave the other 2's alt spot light on them? just saying.

In my opinion this is the definitive adaptation of the ninja turtles, although I also have to admit that I am not a fan of the theme of reincarnation in the origins of the turtles, it feels strange knowing that the turtles used to be human, I mean it's strange to see Rafael together with Alopex knowing that he was a human once while Alopex was a common arctic fox that mutated, I don't know It's uncomfortable to think about those things 😅 but other than that, in my opinion, this version of the Ninja Turtles gave us the definitive version of Leonardo, even much better than his series versions animated and live action

@@ReddVencher oh really, and where do you get those numbers and why was IDW losing a ton of money if it’s flagship title was doing so well? I’m guessing you don’t have any sales figures. And yes the comic was 💩 when he took over. His artwork was ok up until around 100 then it was bad and the writing was just his terrible deviant art fan fiction.

[@ReddVencher]

@@flyingdutchman8093 Comichron publishes the monthly sales. IDW Media was the branch of IDW that was losing a vast majority of the money not their publishing side. You realize can lose money on all the other books IDW publishes that offset what the best seller is bringing in, right?

I didn't enjoy it even back in like 2012 or 2015 when I first got into it but it was cool and interesting or different but call me picky but the story from this was very wonky or very weird how plot or the story sort of moved 5 steps forward and three steps back also is it me or does each issue sort of change artist or art style I never noticed it until you put every issue next to each other but I'm pretty the illustrations are made by the same person but I still think the 2003 tmnt still has the best story and I know its a show but Dreamwave comics were pretty much the same as the show but the IDW comics do have the best action scenes I've ever seen in comics

[@skeetsofrage9517]

It ended with a whimper, not a bang. So bad that they had to relaunch the whole comic with different , big named writers because they gave the original comic to a furry obsessed dude who likes to dress and pretend he's a woman and put his politics into the comic.
