Powerbunga! BOOM! Studios has announced that in addition to the first issue sellout of Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers / Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, demand for the second issue has already caused a sellout at the distributor level.

Writer Ryan Parrott mentioned in our interview with him, the ending of the second issue was the initial pitch for this mini-series. It was a surprising twist to the story and we can’t wait to see how it plays out.

As a result of the sellouts, BOOM! Studios will be releasing second printings for both issues that will release on February 5th, the same day that Issue 3 is scheduled to release.

Check out both press releases below as well as the new second print covers.
