Darn it! Tried to answer you before but the site must have gone done before it saved.
I am hoping I'm wrong, but your pic looks a lot like my plants last year that got infected with early blight. I was so sad...it was my first real attempt at a crop of tomatoes and I ended up throwing them all out...fruits, plants, everything. The leaves and stems went first, then the fruits got all weird. If that's what it is, you shouldn't compost the plants....send them to the landfill. Also, apparently you shouldn't grow tomatoes in that spot again for a few years.
I hope you don't find a similarity checking other pics online....it's just plain frustrating to go through this.
