Jason Aaron’s TMNT gets the deluxe treatment
And here’s your friendly reminder to make sure TMNT is on your pull list, because there’s plenty more coming.
The oversized 7″ x 10.8″ hardcover captures the opening chapter of the latest TMNT era, which began with the brothers scattered across the globe. Raphael found himself in prison, Michelangelo became a television star in Tokyo, Leonardo searched for peace, and Donatello was imprisoned in a mutant zoo before circumstances began drawing the family back together.
Aaron is joined across the collection by an impressive roster of artists, including Joëlle Jones, Rafael Albuquerque, Cliff Chiang, Chris Burnham, Darick Robertson, and Juan Ferreyra.
There’s plenty for collectors, too. The deluxe edition includes Aaron’s outline for the first six issues as well as a full cover gallery featuring regular, retailer incentive, and retailer-exclusive covers.
Cowabunga!
