Notes: The second printing of TMNT #4 and the first issue of "Tales of the TMNT" volume one went to the printer at the same time, and unfortunately the image for the "Tales" cover was used on the first run of #4. These books did make it into the distribution chain before the error was discovered. The misprinted cover version was recalled and 59,000 of the 60,000 misprinted copies were destroyed (thanks to Dylan Arsenault for supplying this info).
