Question, Is there a modern day reprinting of the Second print of TMNT #1? I won this auction and just received my comic but it is a small photocopy/reprint of the second printing of #1. On the inside cover there are a lot of blue lines surrounding the borders, they look like chalk lines or something.

 

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/ninja-turtles-1-reprint-second-printing-/191511938279

 

The description is this "this comic is a reprint of the first tmnt comic book in nearly perfect condition" and the title was this - ninja turtles #1 reprint (second printing).

 

I took this as a TMNT #1 second print but it is a copy of the second printing...?

 

I asked for a return and the seller is giving me guff about it. Did I get ripped off?

 

Great News! I ended up working with eBay and getting a refund on this one. Unfortunately I had to get eBay involved since the seller wouldn't agree to a refund, but in the end it all worked out. Unfortunately in between getting charged and waiting for the refund I had to miss out on a TMNT #1 Second print for $200. That's one of the best prices i've seen in a while. Oh well, back to the hunt.

 

Did you have to return the book?

 

I did return the book. Sent it back in the same shape as it was sent to me. When i first asked to return it he told me that he would give ME half if I sent the book back, but i went for the full refund instead. I would have felt guilty if I would have gotten a refund and been able to keep the comic.

I figure this thread could use a bump. Here's one I got recently mostly because I like the cover.

Nice books guys. I love that b&W color classics.

 

Well, what the ....

 

Donatello died. For those of you who read this, please explain. It is true, but why? And REALLY??????????????

Donny???????

 

Not to say I wish it was another turtle, but if they were going to kill a turtle off (if any) I would think Raph, as he would be quick to take a bullet for an April or character similar to her (All of them would, but Raph would push the envelope- "you got beef." I understand that Rocksteady stomped his shell. I just can't believe it. Poor Donny!!!!

First of all let me say sorry for being MIA lately. Between selling as many books as I can, getting a new Gobbledygook set(pics coming soon), becoming ADDICTED to MUT 15, and other stuff I've been pulled around everywhere. I didn't get a chance to read the issue but a synopsis of it. I think Donny will be brought back, I'm guessing a trip to Dimension X, mutagen, or something else will revive him but I find it very graphic and stupid to show a shell breaking and other such.

I read that, but I guess we shall find out. I guess they wanted to shock people. Let's get real here, they can't kill off Donny or a turtle for that matter. It would be "uncivilized" lol

Spoilers, people! I generally don't get to read my books until the weekend. :taptaptap:

My bad. I thought you'd be the first to know. People need to hear about this though. It's the biggest thing since sliced bread

I think there might be some weird price manipulation going on in the TMNT #1 9.0 GPA. According to GPA, there was a sale of a 9.0 OW/W for 2650 (almost 1200 less than the last previous sale prior to that. Then less than a month later, the book sells on eBay for $3399 to a 2 feedback buyer who was the only bidder on the book. O and up until February 26th the same book was listed on Comicconnect for sale for over $5,000. So not sure whats going on here but something doesn't smell right.

My wife and I went to an outlet store this weekend and I picked up a couple of these. I thought it was cool because I'd never seen Jim Lawson's work on anything officially licensed before. It's a decorative wall tin roughly 11 x 14.
