Notes
Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird cover. Includes previously unpublished pages of T.M.N.T. artwork. Centerfold splash featuring Cerebus, Flaming Carrot, and the turtles by Bob Burden. Plus a rogues gallery and upcoming previews. Ashcan format, 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", b&w, 30 pages, 3,000 print run.
By 1986 "Turtlemania" had truly taken off from the humble beginnings two years earlier with TMNT #1 and it's initial first print run of 3,000 copies. This inspired Robert Wilson, owner of Metropolis comics, to create a one-off special with original material generously donated by Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman. These comic books contain previews and previously unseen artwork, including a Bob Burdon pull-out poster in the centerfold depicting the TMNT, Flaming Carrot and Cerebus!
