Comics Buyer's Guide 1326 April 1999
This issue is notable for a few reasons. For one, the cover sports a reprint of both the original 1st issue of the Mirage comic and the Archie TMNT Adventures cover, as well as a pic of creators Eastman and Laird. On the inside cover, we get a rarely seen photo of the duo with Cerebus creator Dave Sim. An interior spread chronicles the Turtle history up to this point in time (1999), with a reprinting of the first full-page ad Eastman and Laird ran in the Comics Buyer's Guide #547. And finally, a Peter David "But I Digress..." article about his involvement in trying to bring the TMNT comics to Marvel's Epic line. There's also a fun anecdote about how he was given a free copy of the 1st Mirage issue, which the store owner where he acquired it probably now regrets!
