Interview: Jason Aaron: TMNT

-Jason Aaron's run begins in the ALPHA one-shot this June. It'll feature a 10 page prelude story drawn by Chris Burnham and starring Donatello.

-The relaunch begins in July 10 with TMNT #1! The first four issues will put a different turtle front and center, with each one being drawn by a different artist who picked their favorite turtle. It's...

• #1 Joelle Jones (Raph)
• #2 Rafael Albuqurque (Mikey)
• #3 Cliff Chiang (Leo)
• #4 Chris Burnham (Donnie)

1. Jason, thanks for being on the AIPT Comics podcast for the third time! You’ve launched incredible series one after the other, on a scale of Thor, to Batman, how excited are you for the TMNT launch?
2. For anyone who loves TMNT but never dove into the Mirage era, what is a distinct element that got its claws into you as a kid?
3. How did you and IDW come to the idea of assigning a different artist to each of the first few issues?
4. If your take on TMNT had a soundtrack, who would be the composers?
5. Do you feel like you’ve taken any lessons from the Ninja Turtles over the years?
6. Is there a theme or message you’re trying to convey with your TMNT run?
7. What's a personal habit or ritual that significantly impacts your creative process?
8. From Wolverine, to Thor, to Batman, and now TMNT you’ve written a huge swath of modern pop culture darlings, so I wonder, is there a piece of advice you'd give to your younger self about your artistic journey?

Interview: Henry Zebrowski talks Operation Sunshine: Already Dead (co written by Marcus Parks with art by David Rubín) out April 24th! Interview conducted by Alex Schlesinger!

From the New York Times-bestselling hosts of the hit The Last Podcast on the Left and Black Hammer’s David Rubín comes the second installment of the humorous, horror, and action-packed comic book series that’s Near Dark meets Ocean's Eleven.

Our ragtag group of young, alienated vampires head down to the swamps of Florida to disrupt a nasty ancient vampire party and to put into motion “Operation Sunshine”—their plot to steal a magical object that can turn themselves back to human and put an end to the elder vampires once and for all.
