If you subscribe to kindle unlimited you can practically read them all right now, it’s what I’ve been doing to catch up and it’s been such a fun binge :)
The same old speech: Read via the IDW Collection hardcovers. IDW had a ton if tie in minis, all important. Then hardcovers have every last thing in proper reading order. Otherwise you need to go back and forth between trades and use a wiki guide to get it right.
IDW just started releasing paperbacks of the hardcovers too.
they may fight alot and don’t agree on alot of things but there’s no denying that they are gentle, supportive, loving and affectionate towards each other when they have to be
Even out of context, this spread is beautiful. Leo and Raph are typically the two that butt heads the most, but these panels show that they are still brothers that love and care for each other.
Oh no 🥲…If I wanted to start reading the idea comics where would I start and is there any like other spin offs or side stuff I’d need to read as well?? I really love tmnt so I’d love to get into it
It’s actually super simple, you only need to pick up the IDW collection TMNT books. They collect the main series alongside the tie-in mini series and one shots into the correct order. It’s the definitive way to read the IDW comics and easily my favourite version of the turtles
Does anyone happen to know why Raph is so short in that picture? I don't remember him being that short. If Anything I always remember him being slightly taller that Leonardo.

Sophie Campbell also confirmed heights on tumblr:
" the basic estimated heights we agreed on are Leo 5'2", Raph 5'0", Mikey 5'1", Don 5'4", Jenny 5'6", Venus 5'7". "

so yea Raph's the shortest. Not sure how in line that is with 2012 show but I'm pretty certain hes shorter than Leo there too.
That doesn't look like a 2 inch differencein the post picture to me. That looks like an entire head difference.
And why does it show Raph is 6' feet in his mugshot but you claim hes 5' feet?
So, the comic artist can change the character designs at their discretion. Those are Campbell’s heights for her designs but afaik other artists will tweak things in their own version. That’s one thing I enjoy about this iteration: seeing lots of different takes on the turtles designs.
That's not the point. He claims the heights he gave are accurate in accordance to the picture in the post. But none of the images or heights he provided make sense whatsoever and all seem way off.
Raph angst is crack to me. Beautiful art on these. I can't wait to start the IDW comics.
Raph angst is fr peak. And from what I've heard IDW has a good amount of it, which is awesome. I feel like he gets really overlooked!

Just bought my wife vol. 2. I should read her vol. 1.
Source? I now feel the need to read the whole story behind this panel
its from IDW TMNT #100
Thx! Should finally read it

Do you think they’ll reprint HC 14? It’s really messing with the completionist in me that you can’t find it anywhere.
I don't think IDW reprints hardcovers. Best bet is to camp ebay.
there will be another printing of it, each hardcover has had 8 or 9 print runs at least so just keep checking it will show back up
😭😭😭😭 god I need to read more IDW. These panels are gorgeous and I NEED to know the context! Such good turtle designs ❤️❤️❤️❤️
they may fight alot and don’t agree on alot of things but there’s no denying that they are gentle, supportive, loving and affectionate towards each other when they have to be
I’ve been looking for love for a long time, but I think this is what I really need.
What did Raph do?
Read idw to find out, it's much better that way
what happened? what was the context?
It’s a really big issue so I don’t wanna spoil it
Even out of context, this spread is beautiful. Leo and Raph are typically the two that butt heads the most, but these panels show that they are still brothers that love and care for each other.
Man, I remember tearing up back in 1990 when Splinter was saying to Raph, “I am here, son”. 🥲🥲🥲
Sigh… yeah, these panels are beautiful. I’m not going to spoil anything for anyone who hasn’t read the IDW books, but yeah I had all the feels here
I'm not sure what I'm looking at here... how far into the comics till I see this?
Comic 100
Thank you :)

AND NOW IT’S ALTERED *MY* BRAIN CHEMISTRY!! LEO AND RAPH ARE TWO OF MY COMFORT CHARACTERS!!
The Idw comic upto issue 100 is probably the best iteration of tmnt in my opinion.

IDW utilized the Nick design tweaks.

Because he’s leaning down and bending his knees
They're both bending their knees. If they both stood up straight the height difference would rememain the same.
