I noticed the indicia on TMNT #1 Vol.6 (Battle Damage Krang cover) said "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES #1 REPRINT. MAY 2024. FIRST PRINTING." I am a little confused to it saying "reprint' and "first printing." Does this mean it's the first reprint? Can anyone elaborate?

it's an odd way to do it, but yes, I'd guess they mean it's the 1st printing of the reprint. but normally that's called a second print and so on. maybe someone's idea of a joke at IDW. I'd ask them for the right answer: letters[a]idwpublishing.com (without the brackets of course).

Kind of like "Transformers" #80 in a 4 issue limited series.

Actually, my guess is that they're treating "TMNT #1 Reprint" as a separate title. If it sold out, I'd expect to see something that said "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1 Reprint: Second Printing" to hit the shops.
