Welp, got my Treasury Edition in the mail yesterday! After deducting the cost of S&H, I paid $9.05 for the book.

The book is in great shape, the only damage being a small tear on the spine (which I suspect may have came from Mirage like that as my Soul's Winter trade has similar damage). What impressed me was the books still has that distinct smell that Mirage's books always had - even after 3 years!

I read through the frontispieces and skimmed the Savanti Romero story; the one thing I realized was I missed Murphy as a writer. Say what you will about his preachiness in TMNTA and such but the guy is a damn good writer! Even a scant few pages I really felt for old Don and even Jim's stylized artwork managed to capture the essence or Renet's sadness as she departed his time.

Curious thought that just hit me: wonder if Renet and the other time lords have something to do with the Hall of Lost Legends? Perhaps she is the one who saw to the Turtles induction to its hallowed walls.
