That's what I was afraid of... Oh, well, I got a bunch of other issues I needed and had fun reading I guess I'll just sell the issues I have and read the TPBs. Thank you for your honest answer!

I just started collecting the comics and I am trying to collect most of the covers I can. The artwork is amazing and though it will cost a bit more I got to have the comics. Way better than the TPBs.

I was thinking of venturing into digital comics. Can these comics be downloaded and saved to a flash drive? Or are they only able to be viewed online?

The Comixology downloads can't (technically) be downloaded to a flash drive. You can either read them online or download them for viewing on an iPad/iPhone/droid device.

That being said, it took the brilliant people of the interwebs about a week to figure out how to rip the files, but its probably not appropriate to discuss how on this board.

Did the Secret of the Ooze Magazine include any comic strips?

Not necessarily. The TPB's DO have all the variant artwork in them in the back, along with sketch art and concept designs. A better value for the dollar, IMHO. I like having individual comics, but they take up far more room- and the TPB's don't have ads getting in the way of the story!

Hello, guys!

How much can someone ask for TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES TMNT Collected, the one published by Mirage in 2009? BTW, when was published the first B&W collected book by Mirage? Cheers!

Ask what you want, only worth what someone is willing to pay...

The first B&W "collected" book was published in 1988. It was available in SC and HC. HC's were signed.

Less than $20.00 for the paperback. I got mine on eBay last month for 12.00 + shipping.

Has suicide ever been addressed in any TMNT comics?

Does holding onto a thermite grenade as it explodes count?

Only suicide I can think of was in Cyber Samurai -stories. In first issue, where Leo and his students catch those commandos:

"But when it came time for a little Q&A..."
"...each of the commandos bit down on a pill..."
"...and self-vaporized."
"They wasted their lives, man."

I'm not sure if there's anything like that hinted in Tales v2 or in later mini-series, I should read those again.

EDIT: Oh, and Leo talking to Hitler about taking his brain, which leads to suicide later on same story.

Will the '12 annual be collected in a trade at some point with other issues or will this remain a stand alone release?

Okay, hoping someone can help me out with an answer...

I've got a 1st Printing (Oct. 2012) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Color Classics #5 (IDW) and it has one page printed twice! The page pictured was printed in the correct spot, then reprinted later in the book in place of another page- not sure WHICH other page since this is my only copy of #5.

[IMG][/IMG]

So the question is: Does this affect value at all? I know if a page is missing (ripped out) that decreases value, but what if the printers accidentally print it that way? Does it increase value or still decreases? Is this a known issue with the Color Classics line? Any info would be helpful!

(I searched to see if I could find this issue somewhere on the forum and couldn't find it posted anywhere else, so sorry if I missed it...)

Dawnatello Turtle Chick, it was discussed in here way back when the issue was released. IIRC, all copies were affected by that, both printed AND digital, though I might be wrong about that one.

Thank you! Now I've got my answer AND the missing page! Happy to know what I was missing, bummer it was every issue though.

You're totally welcome!

And by the way, if you still need any of Moo Mesa/Tales crossovers Mirage Group currently has them all for $3.25 a piece.
