This is it, fans! You demanded it--the entire Image Comics TMNT run (a.k.a. TMNT Volume 3) reproduced for the first time ever in full, four-color glory!

Join creators Gary Carlson and Frank Fosco as they take the Heroes in a Half-Shell on some of their most amazing, dangerous, and bizarre adventures ever... culminating in three brand-new issues by Carlson and Fosco to properly close out this long-beloved storyline at last! To kick off this action-packed series, the TMNT are attacked in their lair by a group of cyborgs led by a mysterious female ninja named Pimiko. When the smoke clears, the villains escape with Master Splinter and Donatello as their captives. Can Raph, Leo, and Mikey save the day?

Long out of print and incomplete, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Volume 3 is one of comics' lost treasures, now uncovered at last and completed by the original creators.

Collects issues #1-13 of the 26-issue series.
Gary Carlson self-published and created the black and white superhero anthology Megaton back in the early '80s, which introduced many new comic book talents including artists Erik Larsen, Rob Liefeld and Angel Medina (to name a few) as well as featuring the work of Butch Guice, Mike Gustovitch, Sam Grainger, Sam DeLaRosa and the late Gene Day. Gary Carlson co-created Vanguard with comic book artist Erik Larsen. Carlson later wrote Vanguard, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Supreme for Image Comics. He also co-wrote Aquaman and Nova with Erik Larsen. Carlson is the major creative force behind Big Bang Comics, serving as editor, writer and publisher. The series was originally published by Caliber Comics, then Image Comics, and is now self-published under the Big Bang Presents title.

Frank Fosco is a penciler/inker who started off with Gary Carlson’s independent comic book Megaton. In the pages of that anthology, as his first published comic work, it featured his very own creation, Ethrian. After that he ghosted layouts for, The Strangers from Malibu comics. The Strangers gig landed him some work as a fill in artist at DC. He is most notably known for a 23 issue run on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles from Image comics. He has done work for Marvel on the Worlds Greatest Comic Magazine and back up stories in Erik Larsen’s Savage Dragon. Along with a couple of projects in the works he is currently working on a Vanguard series which appears in Savage Dragon.
