    This Ebay posting ended last Friday. It was ended by the seller because there was "an error" in the listing. Error my @$$ that is clearly not a first print. http://www.ebay.com/itm/TEENAGE-MUTANT-NINJA-TURTLES-1-COMIC-FIRST-PRINT-TMNT-GOOD-EASTMAN-LAIRD-/360843001997?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&nma=true&si=br4Lk4c6xKsyfF%252FiYp5gIjTeteQ%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

    Strongguy's observation was spot on. I don't want to beat a dead horse but here are some close ups of my 1st, 2nd and 3rd prints just to reinforce his findings. First Print Second Print; With "line", or whatever you call it. Third Print; More pink than red. Also the buildings appear to be filled in a lot more. I have noticed that the blood on the "S" in "Turtles" also differs each printing. As far as size per issue, from largest to smallest was 2nd, 1st, 3rd. Here are some shots of my 3rd print on top of my 1st print. I would have done one shot but I couldn't get the angles right to see both the length and width differences.

    I completely agree! Raphael one-shot, 7 and 18 second prints are my favorite covers.

    After reading this thread I decided to check out "when the Walking Dead bubble will burst". Seriously? 239 pages of "comic book theory", they are just angry that either they dropped the ball in '03 or aren't able to afford back issues. It is quite entertaining.

    Is the Retailer Appreciation variant valuable? It was included in the lot of WD comics I purchased a couple months ago. It still has the "thank you" letter inside. I love the cover.

    I couldn't help it. My OCD kicked in after I bought the 3rd printing, hahaha. Thanks everybody! I only need #3 NYCC variant and #4 error print then vol 1 (all prints) will be complete.
