Phil’s questions for Kevin and Andy which include Valiant and their Nintendo titles and 80’s comic book publishers.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Authorized Training Manual #3 – this is the Donatello Bo staff comic Andy talked about.

Concrete by Paul Chadwick first appearance is Dark Horse Presents #1 (July, 1986) so maybe Phil dropped the ball on this.

Kevin’s 24 hour comic! Hopefully he will post it. Written, drawn, lettered by Him! (Unknown the name of his publishing company).
