I even checked earlier dates where it would be more likely but it seemingly didn't run at all in the Gazette (they had kind of a sorry comics section). Unfortunately that's the only newspaper on record at that particular library but this has sparked my interest to explore a bit further down the road and explore UMass Amherst's extensive database of other local papers: http://guides.library.umass.edu/newspapers Maybe Peter Laird's alma mater will be the key!? In any case this will finally give me the excuse to see these sculptures in person: https://www.umass.edu/gateway/feature/cowabunga  |
I am totally still interested. Maybe if somebody gets a big subscription to Newspapers.com we can really start doing the elimination process on which papers carried the strip into its late run.
Happy microfilm hunting! Sounds like UMass Amherst is a great trip for a TMNT fan!
