>Everyone knows Splinter trained the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to become four of the bravest heroes New York City ever saw. But what if that father/sons dynamic is disrupted by Shredder brainwashing the quartet and bending them to his will? That's the premise behind Tom Waltz and Zach Howard's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Deviations."
>Announced today as part of IDW Publishing's just-announced Deviations initiative (which will also include alternate reality, "What If...?"-style takes on "The X-Files," "Transformers," "Ghostbusters" and "G.I. Joe") the Turtles entry comes from the regular series writer and the artist of "Wild Blue Yonder" and "The Cape." In the March-arriving one-shot, Splinter must put together a new team to save his young charges from Shredder.

The I in IDw must be for irony
Sweet.
The Ghostbusters and TF ones sound good too.
>>78156748

This one upsets me more than it should
>>78158436

> this is canon in one of the infinite worlds seen in Get Real

Jesus. Many New Yorkers knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of a Sloar that day, I can tell you.
And also:
> blonde Egon
Stop this.
>>78163937
>the world is kill
Nah, they're just forced to worship and obey the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.
The whole thing is played for comedy.
>>78159254
>tfw the annual is not ripped yet.
>>78163937
That's not Egon, I am thinking it's that one other dude based on the blonde version of the Egon cartoon that Janine dated but it's not Egon.
>>78164615
Its Egon.
Thats just a variant cover anyway, the real thing is by the same artist who draws the ongoing.

GI Joe: Corbra takes over the world
Transformers: Optimus doesn't die in the first movie
>>78164909
And X-Files: Mulder gets abducted instead of his sister.
I like IDW doing elseworlds stories, there are tons of potential stories they could do
>Godzilla
>The oxygen destoryer was never used on the original 54 Godzilla
>Star Trek
>Spock is the Captain of Enterprise
>MLPfucking bitte me
>Celestia was imprisoned for 1000 years instead of Luna
>Back to the Future
>Marty goes back further in time meeting his grandparents
>>78165433
Hey, if these sell well, ya never know.
>>78165522
Boco on Reddit instead of 4chan.
>>78165433
The Godzilla won't happen cause Toho is super fucking weird with the license.
How Godzilla in Hell got made is a mystery.
>>78164909
>Transformers: Optimus doesn't die in the first movie
If it was only that, then nothing would changed, so it's great that they confirmed that Megatron dies, and doesn't get brought back as Galvatron.
>>78165433
>>Marty goes back further in time meeting his grandparents
He met his paternal grandparents in the Telltale game, Bob Gale worked on it even though he considers it noncanonical, so there's probably some elements of it that happened, just not everything.
>>78165706
I honestly don't know.
Cataclysm was basically an elseworlds story where kaiju fucked up the entire world to being a post-apocalyptic hole. Then there's the aforementioned Godzilla in Hell.
So I haven't a clue what Toho would or wouldn't allow.
>>78165842
>so it's great that they confirmed that Megatron dies, and doesn't get brought back as Galvatron.
So, like, would Cyclonus and Scourge still wind up getting created?
Starscream basically wanted to dump the deadweight as an excuse to get rid of Megatron. Would they have still tossed Thundercracker and Skywarp to the wind?
>>78165706
Post yfw Mars Attacks Godzilla will never happen
>>78165934
Just spit balling ideas, Back to the Future in particular is a goldmine for "What if" plots
>>78166048
Astrotrain said that, so he'd still toss them out. The important thing is what happens after.
They also mentioned Starscream would be a major character.
>>78166101
The bigger tragedy is no Godzilla vs Cthulu.
>>78164140
Damn. I thought it would he a Displaced Aggression type deal where it's the end times.
>>78166339
This. And it should've been either Goji or the Ghostbusters to take down the terror, neither of which appeared in Infestation 2. D&D made sense though, I guess. Plus GB had the oppurtunity last crossover.
>>78166339
>>78167365
Godzilla in Hell kinda had Godzilla vs. Chthulu
>>78164998
> Samantha Mulder takes her brother's place on the team
I think I like it.
This looks promising.
>>78168942
Really digging Cobra the Ruler's design.
>>78168942
>>78169026
One shot variant
>>78166101
>>78166339
>>78167365
What about "Mars Attacks Godzilla and Ghostbusters vs Cthulu?"
>>78164998
Okey that sounds interesting
