Two Decades in the Making, Gary Carlson and Frank Fosco’s Unique
Interpretation of TMNT Concludes with All-New Stories in Issues #24-26
​
SAN DIEGO, CA (January 16, 2020) – IDW Publishing (OTCQX: IDWM) is proud to announce that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Urban Legends, their monthly comic book series reprinting the incomplete TMNT series originally released from 1996 to 1999, will finally be  concluded with an all-new story running from issue #24 through #26.
 
The original creative team of writer Gary Carlson and artist Frank Fosco reunite to bring their long-awaited ending to the Urban Legends saga, colored by Adam Guzowski (who skillfully colored the entire series). The new storyline, debuting with issue #24 in April, unmasks the mysterious and deadly Lady Shredder, leading to a senses-shattering showdown that TMNT fans have waited two decades to see!
 
“It's a pleasure to be able to finish up the TMNT storylines that Frank Fosco and I started over twenty years ago,” says Carlson. “I have always been proud of the issues we did at Image. It’s great to know that our run hasn't been forgotten, and that so many fans are excited to see how it would have ended.”
 
“After all these years, we're excited to finally be able to wrap up this awesome storyline... so put a helmet on, buckle up, and jump on for an exciting ride full of twists and turns. We've all been waiting for this!” says Fosco.
 
“IDW is proud to have helped Gary and Frank’s adrenaline-packed iteration of TMNT reach its natural and satisfying conclusion,” says editor Megan Brown. “It’s been an immensely rewarding experience to bring this series to both a new audience and old fans, and to see a renewed interest in the wonderful Urban Legends!”

Missoula, MT (1/15/2020):  Vault Comics is thrilled to announce that, after extremely high demand, THE PLOT #1 will receive a very special printing as part of the VAULT LINES series of deluxe black-and-white editions highlighting the astonishing original inks from Vault artists.

Printed on deluxe heavyweight paper, THE PLOT #1 VAULT LINES SPECIAL EDITION spotlights the incredible line art of series co-creator and artist, Josh Hixson.

“Aside from expressive character acting and sharply defined gesture, Josh does atmosphere as well as anyone in comics," said Tim Daniel, Vault's VP of Branding and Design. "His command of light and shadow, particularly in a horror comic, is the foundation upon which all else rests in THE PLOT. From the darkest corners of the Blaine Manor, to a flickering lantern's glow, Josh's highly evocative lines and tones profoundly impact the reader's experience, inviting us all into what his art has made a very real place--one that was once nothing more than some words in a script.

"Very early on we discussed publishing THE PLOT in black and white. Jordan Boyd signed on and you don't say no to Jordan's colors! However, we're very gratified that readers get to see Josh's work in THE PLOT as a Vault Lines Special Edition. Everyone seems to agree that doing horror in comics is hard, yet Josh has made it genuinely terrifying."

One of the most critically-acclaimed comics of 2019, THE PLOT is co-written by Tim Daniel & Michael Moreci, drawn by Josh Hixson, colored by Jordan Boyd, lettered by Jim Campbell, and designed by Tim Daniel.

THE PLOT #1 VAULT LINES EDITION will hit store shelves on February 12, 2020. Stores can order the issue by using the Diamond Order Code: DEC198071.

The official synopsis can read the below: 

Widely hailed as the best horror debut of 2019, THE PLOT #1 returns in a stunning black-and-white edition featuring the astonishing original inks from Josh Hixson, printed on deluxe heavyweight paper.

"THE PLOT is GREAT! CREEPY as hell, but great. Another winner from Vault Comics." - Brian Michael Bendis

"Deeply deeply impressed with what Moreci, Daniel, and Hixson have cooked up with THE PLOT... Beautiful gothic horror, with great characters and lots of mystery brewing." - James Tynion IV
