They had a bunch (though not tons, just more than I've seen elsewhere).

I picked up Michelangelo and Leonardo's one shots along with Mirage volumes 5-7 and "How to Draw TMNT" (by Eastmen and Laird) from the Mirage oldies and they're all in pretty good condition. Each was 3 bucks.

I also picked up Archie volume #2 and #3. They weren't in good condition so the guy sold them to me for 50 cents. They're fun to read though.

I need to track down Mirage Volume I 4 and Fugitoid 1 to complete the gap between the turtles in space arc and the my collected book of volumes 1-3 of Mirage Volume I but I think this store might get them eventually.

There were some other Mirage volumes, a few random Archie's and a couple of Image comics left after I picked those up. Also I'm curious about something I found... a Mirage Studios official TMNT martial arts manuel. It was 5 volumes. 1 general volumes and 1 volume for each turtle. I looked at them and didn't find them too interesting but I wonder if those are collectors items of some kind.

Nice finds. You don't see those martial arts books all the time but they're not rare. There's also a sixth book for that series. Do you remember which other books they had? If you're interested in trading comics let me know.

I got a really good TMNT buy a few months ago too.


Most issues where 2 or 3 bucks - it all totaled to $40. There where just so many old classic issues - I totally wasn't expecting any of it.

I got issues #5, 6, 8, 9, 12 and 14 Plus both Don and Leo solo issues.

Not to mention a bunch of awsome Vol4 issues.

Didn't I just make this thread :roll:?

Anyway, I'm going back to my shop later this afternoon to pick up some more stuff from the box they pulled out for the movie.

Oooh, nice. I know the Leonardo one-shot is on my wishlist... and should I ever find it, there will be much rejoicing. I might have to check around my area to see if anyone's pulled out old TMNT stuff.
