I think you got all of them. I guess after all those printings there's no excuse for anyone not to own #1 in some form.

There's also the IDW Limited Red, Black, & Blue lable editions of the Ultimate Collection v1, but good luck tracking those down!

Thanks, haven't heard of those. I'll just stick to the individual releases..who has the space (and the $) for that amount of collected books?

I just notice you forgot the Deluxe #1 reprint Mirage did with the sepia tones. I even own that.

It really is an impressive run of reprints. I wonder where it ranks on the list of most reprinted comics? What would even beat it? Fantastic Four 1? Amazing Fantasy 15? I'd say its hands down the most reprinted comic from an independent publisher.
I think that's the '6th printing', right? |

I'm sure issue #1 will be reprinted many more times in the future too.

Wasn't sure where to post this in this section (as I've already made a thread in the toy area) but another reprint of #1 is on the way. It'll be edited (presumably to tone down violence) & included with an as of yet unknown Wal-mart exclusive figure from Playmates. Info & image is courtesy Kevin Eastman's Facebook.

Also, we've gotten a few new reprints since this thread was made, right? Pretty sure I can think of at least one or two...

Wonder what the edits will be.. the story was edited and made more kid-friendly for the Lego TMNT comic.
Most definitely some more have been released..two that spring to mind are the Ultimate Visual History Edition (2014) and the Artisan Edition (2017). I'm sure there are more. |
