Has anyone here gotten one of their letters in the back of any of the comics? I managed to get one in Tales Volume @ #25. It was a rant about Don's personality in Tales 16.

I've been in three TMNT comics:

letter in vol 4 #15
mentioned in the editorial tales vol 2 #18
letter in tales vol 2 #27

The mention in #18 was a big surprise. Murphy had ran a competition a coupla issues before, and I had picked up the issue late, but thought I would enter it anyway, so I sent a pretty cool postcard of a chimp holding a gun made out to look like a playing card. I had totally forgot about it and when I got #18, I skipped Murphy's editorial (which is strange as I normally read it first) and just went straight into the issue. Later on that evening, I remembered I hadn't read the whole issue (editorial and letters) and picked it up again and there was my name a few sentences down! I hadn't won the comp but Murph gave me a special mention because I sent in a cool postcard!

I think its cool reading through really old issues letters to see what was going on back then. I just read through vol 2 a few nights ago and even found a coupla letters from Roseangelo! Its great when you recognise other TMNT fans names from the 'Drome....

I've actually never sent anything in....I've thought about it but never quite got the nerve to follow through...

I swear every letter I've ever sent Mirage (or Image) ended up in a comic book, whether it was written with that intention or not. It did get a bit frustrating when one I sent, which was actually intended to be personal (it wasn't sent to a Mirage address), got published. But whatever.

My first letter in Body Count #4, then almost every issue of Image Vol. 3. 2 in Vol. 4, and one in Tales V2.

I got a letter published in one of the TMNT magazines, but not the comic as of yet.

Peter Laird responded to one of my e-mails in the back of one of the comics. I can't remember which one, but it was around the time Season 4 was out. It was actually really cool and I kinda want another copy just to see it. I might have to go look through all of my former posts to find it.

I've sent in a couple letters. None have been published but they've all been replied to by Dan in a speedy fashion, which I suppose is just as good. I think I'd rather have a response in a matter of days then wait a few months just to see if maybe my letter got a response in the book itself.
