I'll see if I can dust off the corner of my hard drive the project's in-- ah, found the last progress note I took:
TMNT Strip Archive is missing 344 weekday strips:
52 weekday strips for 1993
84 weekday strips for 1995
208 weekday strips for 1996
At some point early on the weekend strips became little more than fan art and eco-friendly Turtle Tips so I didn't rate those as crucial for the project so they aren't in the count, but have many of those and obviously all available should be included to assemble as complete an archive as manageable.

I've been compiling as many as I can find...I suspect that most of the sources that I've found are the same ones you have used in the past, as I've had very similar luck. Regardless, I would be interested to see what you've dug up.
I haven't counted exactly, but I'm missing (excluding the weekend strips): 1 from 92, about 50ish from 93, 2 from 94, 100ish from 95, and a bunch from 96, probably about 200.

It would be fantastic if you would be willing to share this stuff. I haven't been able to find many of the weekend ones, and the collector in me would love to get them, even if they are mostly puzzles and fan-art and whatnot.
