Today the publisher announced that TMNT #13 received more than 100k orders.

This news comes a day after the pre-order deadline yesterday which was moved up a week due to sales projections being higher than expected necessitating the extra time for printers to produce more copies to meet the increased demand.

Check out the official press release below as well as the newly released Kevin Eastman TMNT #13 variant cover.

The pair are collaborating on the ongoing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Saturday Morning Adventures series, currently on issue 29. They both spoke to AIPT last March on TMNT Tuesday, but with issue #30 coming to comic book shops on October 22nd, there’s plenty more to dig into.

Joy Toy has revealed two upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1/18 scale action figures. Their latest additions to the line are Leatherhead and Metalhead.The figures stand approximately 4″ tall.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #13 kicks off a new era for the Turtles with a new creative team of Gene Luen Yang and Freddie E. Williams II.

The excitement for this issue is huge and that means a shift in schedule. The pre-order deadline was originally set for October 20. However, the pre-order deadline is moving up a week to October 13. This is because order projections have gone higher than expected, and the printer will now receive extra time to produce more copies to meet the increased demand.

That means there’s just ONE WEEK LEFT to get your pre-orders in.
