This December marks the beginning of a bold new chapter in the ongoing series of bestselling teen mutant ninja turtles. Eisner Award-winning author Jean Rune Yang (Superman Destroys the Clan, American-born Chinese, Avatar: The Last Airbender) is working with fan favorite artist Freddie E. Williams II (Batman/TMNT, Godzilla vs. the mighty Morphin Power Ranger) to drive away the fresh story of Hale It Off for #13. To make it even more special, IDW has gathered a roster of All-Star Artists to create a stunning lineup of covers perfect for gifts and collecting.
To celebrate the milestone, IDW offers special blind bag variants, giving fans a surprising thrill with every purchase. Inside, the collector finds one of the main covers or one of several rare exclusive covers available only through the blind bag.
The concept of the variant blind bag in comic book gets caught up in it after the Battle Beast #1 blind bag, where DC Comics and Marvel Comics were hugely successful.
The lineup includes the following covers:
Freddie E. Williams II (Cover A)
Kevin Eastman & Ben Bishop (Cover B and Full Art 1:25 Incentive)
Jared Cullum (Cover C – Holiday Variant)
Clayton Crane (Cover D and Full Art 1:50 Incentive)
Daniel Warren Johnson (Cover E and Full Art 1:75 Incentive)
Dustin Nuguen (1:100 incentive)
David Nakayama (1:250 incentive and full art blind bag only)
Nathan Szerdy (1:25 ratio variant for blind bags only)
Rahzzah (1:100 ratio variant exclusively for blind bags – spits out the appearance of the first cover of the new villain Ujigami)
The pre-order cutoff is on October 20th, so fans will need to let their local comic shop know if they want to take part in the blind bag action. For just $4.99, each blind bag offers the opportunity to win some of the most spectacular TMNT covers of the year.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #13 – The first appearance of the running debut of Yang and Williams and the mysterious new villain – will be in the comic shop on December 10th.
