Creed and TMNT

I am trying to find some back history regarding the development of this issue in particular. Does anyone have any insights or suggestions on who I should contact?

Thanks!!

I thought there was only one issue of it, not 2.

There was one issue, but with several different variant covers. More info can be found here and here.

This is pretty cool. You can read every Creed story (the TMNT crossover included) here.

I mentioned in the comics checklist thread that I bought what I thought was a (really weird and cluttered) variant cover of this crossover, and it turned out to be TMNT Vol. 2 #13 with the front and back covers reversed. :p



Was wondering if that held any significance at all. Highly, highly doubt it, ha ha—but it's a neat little misprint to have. I kinda glanced it when I picked it up for a couple bucks or whatever, so I didn't see the "Coming April 1996" at the bottom, nor did I read the text. I just thought it was a really ugly variant cover, ha ha.

Haven't read the comic yet. I have a copy with the Laird cover art.

If Dan Berger is to believed, it isn't that common, or at least it's not supposed to be. All copies were supposed to have been destroyed but apparently a very small batch got loose. I asked him about it when I found a copy at Half Price Books.

I have all of the editions that are found here but one that jimmy jams has looks different, and I can't really find too much info on it. It has a blue cover and looks like this
