Oh what to give for some TMNT, Ralph Snart, and Elfquest fanclub materials I had some TMNT fanclub stuff once. Now let me see if I can find it.

Sal Sal hating people is what i'm good at TOTAL NEWBIE Registered: 01/27/05 Posts: 14941 Loc: nawth cackalacky	How about stuff no one really cared about? I honestly have no clue if this is the sort of thing anyone bought, period. It wouldn't surprise me if the print run on this - or even Vol.1, for that matter - was 100, 1000, 10,000 or a million _________________________ i'm not here to be clever.

Still, I can't think of anything from the publisher that could actually be called rare.

Sal Sal hating people is what i'm good at TOTAL NEWBIE Registered: 01/27/05 Posts: 14941 Loc: nawth cackalacky	Yeah, the Fantagraphics imprimatur definitely keeps it out of rare by definition. Besides, a lot of the Woodring stuff had Mark Martin stuff in them, which is the real reason I was buying them _________________________ i'm not here to be clever.

Bronty Bronty You know that guy that shows up an hour early for parties? Yah. I'm him. TOTAL NEWBIE Registered: 03/26/02 Posts: 15461 Loc: Canada	there's virtually nothing rare from the decade at all as there is no attrition. we're left with extreme low print books (under 500 or so), variants, and the like.
