The bottom line of the "4" in "84" from his signature is cut off and there's a black bar along the top. If you have the copy handy, I'd be interested to know the dimensions of your copy. Here's mine for comparison. cgcsketcherz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SpideyFein Posted October 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2022 Hey All, I can’t believe I waited so long to post this, but NYCC was a dream come true this year. I knew Quentin Eastman was going to be at NYCC and going to the Metropolis Comics booth, and as I walked up there I saw Kevin and Quentin. Vinny was great and patient with me as I hung with them. I had a smile from ear to ear. I had brought a couple Kamandis for Kevin, and he loved them. He was genuinely thankful and that made me so happy. Kevin and Quentin signed my low grade 3rd print #1 and talked about the history and how it all began. I was in Turtle Heaven. I also got to speak with Tom Waltz. Quentin was so humble and a fantastic guy. We spoke about passion for the things we love and he brought up how Kevin and Peter never stopped working during the early years. He said when your passionate, goodness eventually flows from it. I couldn’t agree more. I then saw Kevin at the IDW Last Ronin signing. The team was great. It was a Turtle-riffic day. I also met RL Stine and Tim Jacobus which was awesome! profholt82, eastbayrudy, Turtle and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jesse-Lee Posted November 19, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 19, 2022 Added these this week from a fellow boardie - only 8 issues left to complete my TMNT Vol. 1 run (caveat being - my #1 is a 4th print, #2 is a 3rd print and Raphael one-shot is a 2nd print).

Jesse-Lee Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 (edited) Still 8 issues left to complete my Vol. 1 run - I wasn't counting this since I had a 2nd print. But when you find a #5 1st print (which I didn't already have) in decent condition for $15, you grab it: Edited November 29, 2022 by Jesse-Lee ADAMANTIUM, cgcsketcherz, MAY1979 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turtle Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 On 8/14/2022 at 11:10 PM, Turtle said: Here's a cool one that I just came back from the Last Ronin signing (FINALLY after CGC's policy wouldn't allow for the boxes to be picked up at the FedEx facility...dumb policy ). Definitely have to tag @rich_TMNT since this is one of his variants. It's Last Ronin 4 and Rich commissioned the great Jim Lawson for a cover featuring the best turtle and a little cameo by the Fugitoid. It's signed by the entire creative team and comes with the Last Ronin label. It arrived with a crack in it, so it'll need to get reslabbed. If I'm lucky, I'll get it back before the Granite State show next month and I can have Rich and Jim sign the case. I sent this and one other book back to be reslabbed due to case damage. Unfortunately, CGC sent me back the wrong books and so far has been unable to locate my books. ADAMANTIUM and sorrenmj 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to send back all of my books from the Last Ronin signing due to case issues but at least I got the same ones back. LOL But, can you imagine if you sent in a TMNT #1 and you got back a different book? sorrenmj and Turtle 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Gazoony Posted December 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 3, 2022 Hi guys. A little over 2 years ago, I decided to try and collect the TMNT Vol. 1 run in CGC 9.8, excluding #1 of course. All first print. #1 - 7.0 #2 - #62 - 9.8 I just received the last book I needed to finish the run, the ever elusive #13. After several years of looking all over the place to piece my collection together, it feels weird to be "done". I just wanted to thank the board members here that helped me here on these boards with advice, some books and just generally have a good time in my hunt. Now to figure out what's next to collect. 😀 rich_TMNT, Gump24601, Turtle and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
