Very good :)

I'm still missing that Shell Shock I believe, but I do have book #6 to compensate with "The Treaty" in...

Historically wise, yes, as Fanfan lists when each comic came out at the top.

Got to update the page.

What do we have to understand by microserie ? was it a fanzine ?

Do you have a scan of the cover page of TMNT's Donatello #1 ?

haha, a really interesting page to make. So finally i don't have all the TMNT/Usagi art and stories.

Donatello #1 was one of four single issue comics each devoted to one of the four turtles (Donatello #1, Raphael #1, Michaelangelo #1, and Leonardo #1) Mini-series is a weird term for the comics since it is a series of four comics, each with a differant title and each numbered #1.

Each of the Turtles had a one shot comic in 1985-86. Raphael met Casey Jones for the first time; Michealangelo found Klunk at Xmas time; Donatello discovers someone with a magic pencil (which was brought back for an amazing plot twist in the current series) and Leonardo ran into the Shredder again... which is the comic that segues into the original series #10 (and basis for part of the first TMNT film, though it's Raph who gets beaten up instead there). And Casey turns up again in #10...

EDIT: Beaten to the cover posting though ;)

I was a little upset when I saw this was printed. It was sent in a letter to Peter and Kevin. The reason I was upset was, because if I had known I would have sent a much better drawing.

Well, this shows only that you are too modest judging the quality of your art; some might say the picture couldn't have been much better... :wink:

Each of the Turtles had a one shot comic in 1985-86. ...Michealangelo found Klunk at Xmas time;
...And Usagi and Gen made a guest appearance in the episode that was based on that story (as you can see on FanFan's page).
