Just curious, for the 25th anniversary Mirage is releasing a collected book of issues #1-11 plus 4 micro-series which was the start of the entire TMNT universe in the comics. Its perfect for anyone to see how the Turtles started in comic form.

Mirage Studios proudly celebrates its 25th anniversary by reprinting the classic first eleven issues of “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” along with the four TMNT micro-series by TMNT creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird!

Anyone getting this?

AWESOME! I hope that they at least get all of the original Eastman and Laird stuff published in TPB format (I'd also love the Archie series, but that's probably a pipe dream). Great to see it, lets just hope it continues.
Not it will most likely do any good, but I encourage any interested parties to sign this petition.

Its very hard to find these TMNT comics...I'm slowly getting into them now.

TMNT Future Tense
Available for pre-order in Diamond Comic Distributors' May catalog, "Previews" V19 #248
Ship Date: July 28, 2009
Format: 200 B&W pages, full color cover, soft cover trade paperback
Retail Price: $19.95
Cover art by Chris Allan; scripts by Dean Clarrain, art by Chris Allan, Paul D'Agostino and others
Mirage Studios' first trade paperback collection of Archie Comics' "TMNT Adventures," collecting 8 issues of the classic comic book series: #42-44 ("The Future Shark Trilogy") and #62-66 (the "Dreamland" 5-issue story arc). All issues feature the "future Turtles" and act as a lead-in to the upcoming all-new "Forever War" mini-series!"
I'll probably end up nabbing this, if only because I imagine I'll be on a Turtles kick by then (I plan to pick up DVDs some time soon).
I'll be getting this, though I'm curious what will be done with issue eight. They'd have to get Dave Sim's permission for the Cerebus appearance. I know that Laird had talked about redoing the whole issue at one point, but that would be totally lame. It could be omitted without much consequence, but I like that issue a lot.
I'm a huge TMNT fan and I'm interested in both of these releases even though I already have all the individual issues. I'm really excited about the Forever war mini-series.
Who knows what is really real..... that's the true question in life.
