whetteon Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 The ending cost may still end up being a deal in a year or two. Someone just buy the dang comic and I'll time pay for it over the next couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Smooth Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 The ending cost may still end up being a deal in a year or two. Yep. Over time it'll be worth it. This book has only one way to go, value wise. Especially if it's amateur CT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWeen Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 anyone know the first time the turtles were printed in color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybuck43 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 In what continuity? In advertisements? Comics? Magazines? Assuming you mean comics my guess would be Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 (Archie, published in 1989) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming you mean comics my guess would be Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 (Archie, published in 1989) I'm sure they were printed in color prior to Archie's 1, I just don't know if anything predates a book like New Age Comics #1 ( 1985 Pin-Up back cover ).

spracknetch23 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 If my rusty memory serves correctly, I believe the first color story was a tie between the color insert in TMNT volume 1 #7 ("You Had to Be There") and the back-up story in Grimjack #26 ("Munden's Bar").

whetteon Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I see a TMNT #1 1st printing ending in the next couple of hours on eBay for anyone who hasn't yet joined the TMNT 1 club. Only $1,000 at the moment which isn't bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pubmonkey Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Ends @ $1,326! Who was the lucky weiner.. I mean winner? The seller was not a comic dealer (from their other items) more a trinket seller. I wonder if everything is above par with the TMNT #1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybuck43 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I was going to bid on it till I read this: "Glad you asked that. (forgot to put that in the description) I took it to my local comic book store for an unbias opinion of the condition and he gave it a grade of -good- with the water stain, the white spot on back cover and the general wear on front and back cover. thanks so much for the question! jim aka goober" Probably went a little higher then it should have. But hey super hard book to find in any grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
