5.0 out of 5 stars A worthy compilation from IDW December 7, 2011
By Chongo
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'll have to admit I was pretty hesitant about purchasing this book only because I already owned these stories in two other tpb collections but my curiosity & fanboy inner demon got the best of me. Besides the hefty price tag it's a very nicely put together hardcover book thats been too long over due for fans of the original Mirage Studios comics. The art has been enlarged so the panels truly almost seem like they're exploding off the pages plus in between each issue there's commentary from Eastman & Laird respectably. Truly looking forward to more volumes down the road including the legendary "City at War" storyline, more material from the non Eastman & Laird run, the classic anthology series "Turtle Soup", Image Comic's run, & really, just about anything & everything in between. A big thanks to IDW Publishing this awesome collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great collection December 1, 2011

Nice book, with very clean, sharp images. Lots of great info from Peter Laird after each chapter as well. Only downside is that the hard cover got a little dented during shipping. Other than that, this is a high quality book containing some of my all time favorite stories. Recommended for any old-school TMNT fans!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome collection! January 30, 2012
By Cole
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
While reading IDW's reboot of TMNT, I discovered they were reprinting Mirage's issues in a hardcover collection. It appears that some reviewers were not aware they were originally published in black and white, so that is why I mention it. Each issue has the original artwork and original typos as well.
As far as the collection goes, each issue ends with Kevin Eastman recapping what was going on the their world at the time the Turtles began to grow. They also review pages and panels of the issues and talk briefly about how they came to be. Other than that, there's not an incredible amount of special features, but still an awesome collection! Can't wait for the second collection!
