But i had to get IDW TMNT in issue form of course ( and the TPBs too when they are released )
When it is IDW we are talking about there is a nice ( or not so nice for obsessive completists ) side... alternate covers, variant covers and worse than those; the retailer incentive covers. Of course not in a frenzy level as Dynamite, but still lots of covers.
Especially for issue 1.
I got the regular Dan Duncan A,B,C,D covers and 1:10 retailer incentive Kevin Eastman and 1:25 retailer incentive Sam Kieth cover.
As for issue 2, i got the regular Dan Duncan cover and Walter Simonson Variant cover.
I was going to get the 1:10 retailer incentive Kevin Eastman cover but either that cover did not go into stock at the online retailer i buy my stuff or it came in really limited quantities and some other jerk ( erm... guy ) managed to get it before me ( tho i was up all night in front of PC for that, i slept for 1 or 2 hours till the morning, so it may have happened at that time ). I hope i will be getting it in future when it drops to that place i shop, as a NM backissue.
And as for issue 3 Kevin Eastman cover, I won't be sleeping even for ten minutes that night.
For other covers and everything TMNT you can check out http://www.ninjapizza.net/
One of the very best places over the net.
Reviews for first 2 issues coming soon...
