(W) Jason Aaron, Tom Waltz (A) Chris Burnham, Gavin Smith (CA) Gavin Smith. What's the world like without the TMNT? Since their time-spanning victory over Armaggon* the Turtles have started to pursue other interests* leaving a void in New York among humans and mutants alike. This special issue explores the effects this change has on those connected to the brothers* from Old Hob to Jennika* across the five boroughs and all the way through Mutant Island. It's hard to tell how important someone is until they are gone. And who better to write such a story than Tom Waltz* the man who scripted the first 100 issues of IDW's series and the co-writer of The Last Ronin* and resign TMNT artist Gavin Smith! Also* get your first glimpse of what is coming in a special prequel to the new TMNT #1* written by superstar scribe Jason Aaron (Scalped* Batman: Off-World) and drawn by white-hot artist Chris Burnham (Batman* Inc.* Die!Die!Die!). Donatello has had a hard time since he came back from the future* and he's found himself in an unexpected place.
