can't say favourite turtle. they are all perfect in their role, as family and fighters. I haven't followed the comic series, so am devistated hearing that 3 have died. we all need to be aggressive at times for family, need to be a leader and reflective, need to unwind and have fun, and need to learn and be studious. 4 turtles.

[@Omnibuddy]

Good call! They are all necessary and unique and we can learn a little from each's strengths and weaknesses.

I got the last ronin only $18 for everything I’m definitely getting the directors cut also lost years

[@Omnibuddy]

Nice! I really enjoyed The Lost Years. Was surprised how great it was!

[@LaggingLeland]

Very excited to buy a copy of this version. Unfortunately I think the Barnes and Noble Christmas sale ended already but whenever this directors cut goes on sale again I’m definitely going to buy it.

[@Omnibuddy]

It is a very cool version! I'll be selling mine, though, as I the other version matches the latest Lost Years hardcover. :(

[@LaggingLeland]

@@Omnibuddycan you explain? I don’t really understand

[@Omnibuddy]

@@LaggingLeland There are two versions of The Last Ronin (one is regular and one is the director's cut). There is also a new continuation of The Last Ronin called "The Lost Years" that just came out. That new hardcover matches the regular HC of The Last Ronin. Hopefully, that makes a bit more sense!

[@JalomMatia]

I haven't read the IDW series yet. Should I read all of the IDW first and then this, or can I read this the same time as I start IDW?

[@Omnibuddy]

I don't think you need to read any IDW first, just know who Karai is and that's about it! I'll tell you below as a very minor spoiler for the IDW series... SPOILER BELOW: Karai is Shredder's granddaughter.

[@JalomMatia]

@@Omnibuddy thanks. I watched a few episodes of a TMNT cartoon some years back and do remember Karai, forgot if she was daughter or granddaughter though. I've decided to read them simultaneously, i'm excited.

[@Omnibuddy]

@JalomMatia Oh yes! That’s right! She’s the same character in the 2012 toon!

[@kenj515]

I'm curious if that has all the stuff that the first director's cut had and what the design archives had so wouldn't have to get those 😅

[@Omnibuddy]

There's a different Last Ronin Director's Cut?! Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're saying.

[@kenj515]

​@@Omnibuddy there's the first issue that got a director's cut and there's the design archives and I'm curious if all the content in both appears in that hardcover version

[@Omnibuddy]

@@kenj515 OOOOOH YES! I totally forgot they did a single issue directors cut! I have no idea if all that is in this deluxe, though. Sorry! ☹️

[@kenj515]

​@@Omnibuddywell if you ever get to have both that first issue and the design archives you get the answer to that question

[@Omnibuddy]

For sure. I'll have to keep my eyes open for it!

[@splish8869]

Anyone know if this version of the Director's cut contains the entire original story?

[@Omnibuddy]

Yes. It’s the whole original Last Ronin story. It just has the extras.

[@turtleanton6539]

So cool

[@Omnibuddy]

Yeah, dude! I freaking love this story, and the Director's Cut is pretty nice. Now I need to figure out if I should keep the Director's Cut or the regular one since the regular one matches the Lost Years deluxe edition.

[@uglystrawberry]

but the first one came out not so long ago. that makes me mad.

[@Omnibuddy]

Yeah, dude. That was a VERY quick turn-around on a second edition, that's for sure. At least there's no extra story content; it's just all extras and doesn't affect the story at all.

[@hitachiuchihamagicwand2776]

The original cover looks so much better.

[@Omnibuddy]

Yeah, I really dug the original one, not really sure why they made this one white ...now it doesn't match the second volume ...unless they plan to do a director's cut of that one too?
