If Destruction Be Our Lot’s First Three Issues Head back to Print

Posted on by Leave a comment

Bestselling co-writers Matthew Rosenberg and Mark Elijah Rosenberg, superstar artist Andy MacDonald, colorist Francesco Segala, and letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou’s white-hot series If Destruction Be Our Lot has hit big with a triple sell-out at the distributor. Image Comics will rush issues #1-3 back to print this week in order to keep up with escalating demand.

All three reprints will feature eye-popping new cover art by MacDonald.

In If Destruction Be Our Lot, humanity is extinct and all that remains are the robots who once helped us. The robots are happier now, doing their work without human interference. But not Abe, a robotic replicant of Abraham Lincoln in search of meaning beyond the daily grind. Abe believes there must be something more out there beyond the edge of the city. After nearly getting killed, he’s determined to wander the Earth until he finds it… or gets recycled trying.

Available at comic book shops on Wednesday, September 2.

SDCC 2026: IDW Unveils 2027 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Plans with Matthew Rosenberg and Juann Cabal Taking Over plus The Last Ronin’s Finale

Posted on by Leave a comment

A new wave of Turtle fandom is coming to comic shops in 2027. When the best-selling Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) flagship series reaches issue #25 in 2027, current writer Gene Luen Yang will pass the bo staff to award-winning writer Matthew Rosenberg and amazing artist Juann Cabal. While the acclaimed writer is no stranger to playing in Marvel and DC’s sandbox, it’s the indie space where he has truly thrived and made an unforgettable impact on the comic industry. Rosenberg, a lifelong resident of the Turtles’ very own New York City, is bringing this same energy to the Heroes in a Half-Shell. Prepare for a thrilling story as the greatest roster of villains, both new and old, have assembled to hunt down the Turtles over the course of a single night.

The best-selling saga The Last Ronin returns to comic shops next summer for its epic finale and will leave fans feeling shellshocked. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin III – Return for New York reunites the legendary original creative team – Kevin Eastman, Tom Waltz, Isaac & Esau Escorza, Ben Bishop, Luis Antonio Delgado, and Shawn Lee – for the can’t-miss conclusion of their grand plans for the Roninverse and its new heroes Casey Marie Jones, Odyn, Moja, Uno, and Yi.

More big reveals will leap out of the shadows later this year about IDW’s exciting plans for Turtles comics in 2027. In the meantime, the massive milestone issue Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #300 – which kicks off the first part of the blockbuster story ‘The City That Never Dies’ – and the action-packed oversized one-shot TMNT: The Last Ronin – Training Day are available now at comic shops.

After the robot cops finally nab him, animatronic ABE gets hauled to the factory for a little “maintenance.” But if he keeps yapping about humans, there ain’t gonna be enough of him left to fix. They got a whole bag of dirty tricks waitin’ for him—torture, mind-wipin’, and magnets so mean they’ll pull the thoughts right outta your skull. A strange and thunderous tale of the future—dark, mechanical, unforgiving and the sci-fi smash hit of the year.
