As has been mentioned before, any comic shop can and should order TMNT books for you if you ask them to. But in the case that that can't happen, that is why we have the Internet where you can order anything you like.

yes, that's true! THANK GOD FOR DEBIT!!

Credit is Evil...my grandmother always used to say if you don't have the money to buy it you don't need it. Words to live by if you ask me.

Yeah, I use a credit card for as much as I can. Mostly because I hate carrying around cash all the time and it gets me rewards points.

But I never spend more than what I have in my checking account. This way I build up rewards points without having to pay interest. And in the event that there is an emergency or whatever (like my car exploding), the credit card brings peace of mine.

I tend to agree, save for big investments like a college education, automobile, or home. I've heard way too many horror stories about people being in debt because they can't handle the responsibility of the Visa and Master Card. But there's nothing wrong with using credit, you just need to know how to control the beast to do your bidding.

Or you could just have a checking acount like I do which is the money you put into the acount...

Well, I have a checking account too, but it pretty much acts as a buffer for bills and an intermediate repository for money before it goes into my savings. Like I said, I use my credit card purely to rack up rewards points. I made $250 in less than a year that way. Not a whole lot of money, I know, but it's a nice little bonus when you get it.

The thing I hate about using a Checking Account Debit Card-and one of the reasons I don't use it on principle-is that a lot of times cashiers will try to use debit instead of credit without asking in an attempt to save some money and try to get you billed an extra 50 cents or something. I hate that.

I got nailed with that so many times when I got my first checking account. Took me a bit to catch on before I realized what was happening. Of course you can just tell them "Credit" but if you're using a credit card anyway they don't have much of a choice. Of course a lot of them still ask.

Why is debit even an option anymore?! No one in their right minds would want to be charged to make a purchase. It's just a way to pilfer money from unsuspecting saps. And every debit card I've ever seen is a fully functioning "credit card" that just withdrawls from the checking account. Actually the real reason banks do it is a bit more malicious. Banks get more money from businesses via "credit purchases" so it's an incentive for consumers to not use debit.

But we're getting way off topic at his point, heh.

So...can't wait for that Tales Volume 1 huh?

I couldn't help but notice that the cover says, "Eastman and Laird's." Wasn't there a discussion a while back where someone noticed that Laird was putting his name infront of Eastman's?

And thanks for posting the cover + info BTW.

i've been waiting for summin like this for a long, long time.
i've only bits and pieces of tales vol. 1...individual issues get so damn expensive.

i saw a lot for all of vol. 1 for like 50 bucks. that averages what, 9 bucks a piece? with shipping i mean, which was i think 14 bucks.

Man, tough break. I own all of Tales vol. 1 except for the Nobody issue, and I got everything at Half-Price books. Thank the Gods for that store - it filled so many holes in my collection ^^

*odupianist* · 07-15-2007, 04:48 PM

Vol 1 for 50 bucks? That's not bad at all. 62 comics for 50 bucks (if i understand you right) is less than a dollar a comic.

No, Tales Vol. 1, which is only 7 issues.

*Mr._Mutant_Man* · 07-15-2007, 10:02 PM

I've gotta remember this one. First appearances of Leatherhead and Rat King? This is the trade I'm looking forward to most in the next several months.

Now all they need to do is re-release Volume 1 of the regular series...

Oops sorry, thanks for clearing that up. I'm debating whether or not to get this even though I already have all of Tales Vol 1.

I'm really glad tpb's of tmnt are starting to come out, but I wish Mirage was able to get places like borders to sell them. Makes it a lot more convenient. My local comic shops usually only have a few tpb's on their shelves at a time and I've yet to see a tmnt one.
