So I’m flipping through my comic boxes today, looking for some extra copies of a few books that a bud is interested in. These boxes contain all sorts of comic goodies besides my duplicates: TMNT appearances in other comics, old newspaper articles, & ash can copies to name a few. Also in this box are my double cover issues.
Yes, that was plural.
Many people have seen and probably own the most famous double cover in the TMNTdom, issue #3:
Here’s my copy in case you have no idea what I’m talking about. Due to a printing error here are 2 complete covers on the book. The most I have seen on a Turtle book is 2 covers, but in other comic lines I’ve seen a book with 3,4, and even 5 covers on it.
Now what you may not know is that this book is NOT the only one to get the double cover treatment. Check out my Savage Dragon copy below:
There’s also this book, but unfortunately I forgot to snap photos before sending in for grading (if you can read the label, on the right it mentions that its a DC on the top line)
My favorite DC would have to be this baby though, #1 2nd print. Its in terrific condition and was actually my first copy of the 2nd print.
Hey man… What about the misprint of number 3 with the missing color shading?
Hey there! I was focusing on just the double covers here not variants. But that does give me an idea to do a post featuring some of the oddball variants…
Sweet stuff man. I like that #1 2nd print. That’s a keeper.
Definitely. Its actually in such nice shape, I’ve decided to send it in with my next batch to by graded by CGC to see what they think.
Haha, sorry I guess I worded that wrong I was running out the door. So ya thats all cool, I was just asking if you knew anything about that variant?
Nice stuff bro!
