Yes, there will be a TMNT Sakai Variant HC

Post by Stan Sakai »

The sales on the HC TMNT/Usagi crossover was good enough to warrant a second printing, and I am doing a new cover for it.

Since IDW is going back to press on it, I will have my Sakai Cover Variant after all. Also with a new cover.

I don't know when it will be solicited or released.

Thanks for the update :)

Do you have a cover in mind, or is it one you have yet to be produced?

Yeah! I'm happy to see that we'll be getting the HC Sakai Signature exclusive again. Is it still the plan to release it as 100 signed/numbered copies and 50 remarqued/signed/numbered copies?

I suppose since I've picked up every single cover so far, I might as well pick up the second HC printing with the new cover too. I'm looking forward to seeing the new cover art for these.

Yeah, likewise, because if it has a different cover to the softcover, then probably get it too :)

So is the hardcover version listed in upcoming previews through Diamond going to be the only version, or will you have another different version available Stan? It's already listed as being expanded over the original version.

There will also be a Sakai Signature exclusive produced alongside the upcoming 2nd printing run since somebody forgot to do it with the first run.

What? I think I'm completely totally lost by now... :roll:

Can we get a flow chart so I can see what we're talking about? :lol:
