Mike and Raph's bubbles are mixed up a ton in the first half of the issue.

Why leatherhead was used in tales # 38, vol. 2?

I mean, they show this story as the first run-in with the turtles and LH but they met before in the first volume of tales. That doesn´t make sense... don´t worry, i ´m not traumatized about this, he! I just want to share my question.

Another thing, I thought that leatherhead had the same age like the turtles, as they all were baby pets when they mutated but in tmnt # 38, vol. 2, we discovered that leatherhead is older than the turtles.

You see, Tales of the TMNT is the kind of series that you don't read in order. It uses the other Mirage books as a reference point and then jumps all around the time line.

Some issues take place before TMNT Volume 1 #1 (like tales #38 and #55), and some take place in the future (like Tales #40 and #69), and some take place during volume 4 (like Tales #12 and #62).

Here's the whole time line in chronological order: http://tmntentity.blogspot.com/2010/...-timeline.html

They were both babies when they were mutated, but they were babies at different times.

Kinda like, I used to sh*t in my diapers and so did Tony Danza, but we sh*t our selves at different times.

I know, thing is that they showed that the tmnt saw LH for the very first time in issue # 38, when they were babies. It doesn´t make sense cuz they met LH when they were teenagers.

*ToTheNines* · 03-21-2010, 09:10 PM

Oh, now I see what you're saying. Well the thing is, they didn't "formally meet" in #38. He just freaked out and never even saw the little guys, and they were young and probably didn't remember him by the time they were teenagers.

Okey. i also thought that maybe they didn´t remember him

*Powder* · 03-23-2010, 02:55 AM

I wanna know EVERY crossover they ever had.

Heres what I can think of-

cowboys of moo mesa
archie
usagi yojimbo
cerebus
vanguard, savage dragon & other assorted image dudes
the flaming carrot
the bode family characters
*gizmo?

I'm talking comics only.

What other characters stepped into the tmnt universe?

*Oculus Orbus* · 03-23-2010, 04:45 AM

Apart from those, CreeD is the only one I can think of right now, but I'm sure there's a few more.

*Ninjinister* · 03-23-2010, 07:47 AM

I've tried to make a complete collective of altogether TMNT crossovers, as have others, but it always ends up losing interest and getting ignored.

Might wanna toss Gutwallow in that list as well.

*DrSpengler* · 03-23-2010, 10:04 AM

Last of the Viking Warriors. Or something like that. I have the issues, but I don't think I've ever read them.

And don't forget the Blazing Tales Varmints, whoever they are (Turtles Soup Vol. 1 #1 treated it like a crossover, though I've never read anything else with them in it).

I suppose the location of "Munden's Bar" counts as a crossover, since it's a part of Grimjack lore and is owned by someone else (they had to remove all Munden references from the reprint of that story, too).

Vol 1, issue 41 has some characters in it by Matt Howarth, believe em to be called Those Annoying Post Bros, or some such. And in the Archie comics, they met The Conservation Corps, whoever they are...

*TheCanadiandrome* · 03-23-2010, 07:55 PM

how rare is a tmnt issue number 1?

*Revan* · 03-23-2010, 09:16 PM

depends on the printing

...tmnt comics are only as valuable as what you are willing to pay for them

*TheCanadiandrome* · 03-23-2010, 09:47 PM

well i'm not looking to pay a heck of alot for first issue TMNT. but i'd really like to get one. i'm going to check out a comic book shop in Toronto and see what they have.

does anyone recommend getting comics off ebay or are there better places online?

**Venom** · 03-23-2010, 10:23 PM

Ebay can be a GREAT place to get Turtle comics on the cheap! I just got Vol. 1 #'s 42 ($1.30), 43 ($1), and Tales Vol. 1 #6 ($1) plus $3.99 shipping. $7.29 all total.

A few years back I really got into completing my collection and bought a short box with 150 books for about .55 cents a book IIRC. Got 32 different issues out of the mix, so I was pleased. Also got the other Tales Vol. 1 books, Fugitoid, and the Turtle Soup books for a few bucks.

The main thing is stay vigilant and scour the auctions. Some of the best deals you'll find will be from a person who no longer wants the books and doesn't think they're worth cover price, someone who has a nice stash but doesn't have a pic listed on the gallery but does in the auction page, etc.

**Venom** · 03-23-2010, 10:24 PM

Oh yeah, you can get the colored #1 from Mirage for about 3 bucks. May even get it given to you if you order several books at once.

Not really a crossover...but I remember an Uncanny X-men comic where Wolverine before entering on sewers talk something like (Sorry for my try into traslate, much probably not the best traduction...) : " Dont tell me nothing about gigant mutant turtles..." a clear reference to TMNT into X-men universe.
