Frank J. Barbiere Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Not really a fan of people putting words in my mouth, especially when they proclaim "we are cancelling the book because it doesn't sell/TV is dead in the water." As Chris stated, we've worked on the book for three years straight and want to try something else for a bit. It's a project we love, and our own creation, so we'll definitely be coming back to it. As of now, it's on hiatus, but we'll definitely be returning in the future--we have to resolve some cliffhangers after all! Re: "our sales"--selling anything in this market is really tough, and honestly if we wanted to jump off the train because of sales we would have done that around issue #10. We stuck it out for 18 issues because this a book we love, and yeah we don't really make great returns on the single issue sales. But I would NEVER say, especially to a fan, we "are cancelling the book because it doesn't sell." That's far from it, and while we are taking a hiatus it's not really due to our single issue sales. If you want to crunch that data, go ahead and read it all on icv2 or comichron--those numbers are publicly reported. And the TV stuff: these things take years. We had a lot of momentum, but ultimately no one was happy with the -script that was written (by Evan Daugherty who wrote the most recent Ninja Turtles movie). Syfy ended up passing on that, but that doesn't discredit the project from further adaptation/etc. It's a long process, but we were excited to be in the fast lane for a moment. Anyhow, I appreciate everyone for their support of the book and to keep that fire burning for future work/etc. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

followtheleader Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Conceptually and artistically loved the book. But I've been on the fence for a bit now. Probably time for me to move on. Those commissions are great. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
