Bronty Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 I forget where to look re blood on sword and that, but it has the washed out look of the 3rd print. I'd be very surprised if it was anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm I looked online and it says you have the right 'sword in the blood' for a first or second print but I wouldn't trust that book. https://blog.gocollect.com/the-six-printings-of-tmnt-1/ It doesn't look right.

Bronty Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 I mean, you're asking what it is but trying to drop hints its a first print. IMO the front cover doesn't look right. Maybe its a counterfeit. I don't trust this at face value at all. I'll let others chime in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No first print on earth right now is under $1,000 unless you're submitting a single page. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
