Plot
PIECES OF TURTLES 8, Dave Sim's first fanzine in nearly 50 years! Dave had completely forgotten that TMNT 8 is 45 FREAKING PAGES LONG. Dave let Kevin Eastman off his leash -- "Fly and Be Free, Little Turtle" (to mix several metaphors) -- and fly he did. It's so well written you don't even notice how many pages you're reading: just that it's OVER TOO SOON! But that poses a problem for Dagon James' Waverly Press, Sean Robinson's Living The Line and/or Aardvark-Vanaheim (whoever ends up doing the Kickstarter). How much extra material can you get into a book that's already a MINIMUM 45 pages long? So PIECES OF TURTLES 8 is the planning stages of that. "Here's what I would include."
