Acclaimed Creative Team of Ben Bates and Dustin Weaver Returns for a Destructive 5-Week Event<\/span><\/div>\n

SAN DIEGO, CA (March 25th, 2018) \u2013\u00a0Following in the footsteps of\u00a0Bebop & Rocksteady Destroy Everything,<\/em>\u00a0writers\/artists extraordinaire\u00a0Ben Bates<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Dustin Weaver<\/strong>\u00a0return to the\u00a0Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles<\/em>\u00a0fan-favorite dysfunctional duo of Bebop and Rocksteady in\u00a0Bebop & Rocksteady Hit The Road<\/em>! With a new issue available every\u00a0Wednesday<\/span><\/span>\u00a0in August, there\u2019s going to be mayhem and hijinks to keep fans satisfied all month long!<\/p>\n

When a road trip back to New York City goes sideways and their powers begin to waver, Bebop and Rocksteady stumble upon trouble, as only they can.<\/p>\n

Co-writer\u00a0Ben Bates\u00a0<\/strong>expressed his enthusiasm for\u00a0returning to the characters, saying, “I have a clear memory of playing with my Rocksteady and Bebop figures as a kid, studying all the details that were unique to each of them, what seem to define their individual personalities and overall thinking how cool as characters they were. It’s crazy to me that I still get to play with these guys as an adult; I hope it never stops! Turtles forever!”<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel so lucky that Ben and I have gotten to make a contribution to the TMNT universe with these B&R stories,\u201d said\u00a0Dustin Weaver<\/strong>.\u00a0\u201cHit<\/em>\u00a0the<\/em>\u00a0Road<\/em>\u00a0is a natural continuation of what we did in\u00a0Destroy Everything<\/em>. It feels just as wild and fun. I kind of love these guys.\u201d<\/p>\n

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles<\/em>\u00a0co-creator\u00a0Kevin<\/strong>\u00a0Eastman<\/strong>will provide variant covers for the series.<\/p>\n

“Bebop and Rocksteady are possibly the most demented characters in the TMNT universe,\u201d said senior editor\u00a0Bobby Curnow<\/strong>. \u201cSeeing their trail of utter carnage across the United States will be nothing but a pedal-to-the-metal blast. Underneath the chaos though, Ben and Dustin have found the unlikely heart\u2014and friendship\u2014that exists between the characters.”<\/p>\n

Catch up on the comic book adventures of the\u00a0Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles<\/em>\u00a0available wherever books are sold, and mark your calendar for a month of mayhem this August, when\u00a0Bebop & Rocksteady Hit The Road\u00a0<\/em>crashes into stores!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
