Legion HQ Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 My first TMNT issue that I bought off the stands was issue 6 when I was a kid in the 80s. Issue 5 was one of the first comics overall that I ever paid a more-than-cover price 'premium' to have. I think I paid something like $10 for it at the time when I saw it displayed on the LCS wall. It became the jewel of my young collection. I was giddy. As for the first four issues, I just longed for them, could never imagine ever being able to buy first prints of any of those originals, as they were already waaay too expensive for a kid. Heck, I never even saw them anywhere, only pictures of them in the ads or magazines, but never in a store. sorrenmj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdandns Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) Here's a "heroes in a half-shell" vintage wall poster collection. These are usually 22x34. The first two were made by Western Graphics, around 1990. The Rick Veitch cover poster is from Mirage around the same time. Numbers 4-6 are from '94 or so, I think from Image Comics, and include one by Todd McFarlane. I also have the original movie poster which is the standard 27x40.

Popular Post Turtle Posted March 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 11, 2022 Michael Dooney was (is?) selling a print to commemorate the closing of the Mirage Studios building. He and Jim Lawson finally had to move out if it recently. Mike said on facebook that this print is the "last one to be printed on the Mirage Studios copier". I think he said he was making 50 of these and was hand-numbering and doing original turtle sketches on each one.

Popular Post Turtle Posted March 15, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 15, 2022 I'm looking forward to Last Ronin #5 coming out soon! I've really enjoyed the series so far. I picked up one of the sketches on Kevin's website a while back on one of his "Fan Club" variants. I figure the variant would match the other "Eastman Exclusive" blank sketch I have of his and it works to commemorate the series in my collection.
