Now that the first issue of the Batman/TMNT Crossover comic is just a few short weeks away from release, fans are getting very excited about the possibilities. After all, when the Caped Crusader joins the Ninja Turtles, anything could happen! In order to promote the pending release of the comic book series, CBR was recently given access to the first images of the exclusive variant covers.
Each cover will be sold at a different retailer, and there will no doubt be limited print numbers for each variant. In other words, if you want to get your hands on one of these special Batman/TMNT Crossover variants, it’s probably a good idea to find your nearest participating comic book store and order a copy for yourself as soon as possible. The first issue is set to be released on December 9th, 2015, with five more issues planned in the following weeks.

I don’t know about you, but I’m personally fond of the variant that features Batman eating pizza with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Has there ever been a more awesome comic book cover than that? Well, maybe there has, but this one is pretty cool as well! Unfortunately, due to the limited nature of variant covers, not everyone will be able to get their hands on these special editions of the Batman/TMNT crossover series. However, even if you can’t afford to get a hold of these special TMNT crossover variants, that doesn’t mean you have to leave this article empty handed!
Perhaps by coincidence or maybe by design, Google recently announced their new digital comic book experience for their Google Play Books service. In conjunction with this announcement and their new approach to delivering comic books via digital means, they have provided 40 comic books absolutely free so that you can test out the service for yourself! Guess what one of their free comics just so happens to be? You guessed it: The TMNT/Ghostbusters crossover!
For a limited time, you can get a free copy of the last great TMNT crossover comic via the Google Play Book store. Google Play’s Book service can be used on a variety of android devices, so if you’ve got a smartphone or tablet, you can probably take advantage of this great deal. In addition to the TMNT/Ghostbusters crossover, they also have Batman, Spawn, Star Wars, Transformers and even Edward Scissorhands comics for free.
It’s not every day that digital comics as cool as these are made available for free, so you’ll want to take advantage of this deal as soon as possible. There’s no telling when Google will end their promotion, so it’s important to make your order quickly. Thankfully, you can order from your computer and it will send the comics to your android device if you have it linked to your Google account.
What do you think? Will you be grabbing some of these free digital comics? Are you going to pick up one of these Batman/TMNT crossover variants? Which cover is your favorite? Let us know in the comments below!
