Reed's feud with Arboro was almost a real cliche, but this moment breaths whole new life into it. I love the lesson for Val (and that we SEE her play dumb earlier in the issue)--THIS is the way to tackle "family" in modern times. (From Fantastic Four 4 by Dan Slott & Stefano Caselli)

Turtles 93 is out today, which means #CityatWar is here and awesome. ALSO AWESOME: it includes part 1 of my 8-part Oral History of IDW Publishing's run on #TMNT featuring my interviews with Tom Waltz, Bobby Curnow, Kevin Eastman (The Ledge), b, & Dan Duncan! Read & love it!

Star Wars 67 comes out next month, and in addition to being @kierongillen's last issue on the series, it thematically wraps up what Marvel started with #StarWars no. 1 in January of 2015. This is what a Disney-era Star Wars finale looks like.

#TMNT 94 is out tomorrow, and not only is the story barreling towards the craziest developments that are guaranteed to light your brain on fire, but it also includes the second Oral History made up of interviews I did with the creators!

If anyone’s reading #TMNT 94 and is like “wait - who are these guys?”, that’s totally cool: this is the first appearance of Zodi, Null and Krisa in the main IDW Publishing series.

This is true! I'm moderating the IDW #TMNT panel at #SDCC2019! We're going to talk about where the series is going, and how it's always been driving there. You thought Jennika was huge? Sister, you don't even know huge yet.

ICYMI, Turtle #Jennika wasn’t the only rad thing about #TMNT 95. The issue also includes the Year Three Oral History that I put together from interviews from virtually all the creators on the series that year.

I guess 2019 is just the year mermaids in video games made me cry. #LinksAwakening #DQXIS
