If the toys aren't enough, there's more classic Turtles goodness headed your way in comic book form. Original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles creators Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman are reuniting for a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles story for the first time in decades. They’re joined by writer Tom Waltz and artist Andy Kuhn. Published by IDW Publishing, Laird and Easterman will work with Tom Waltz and Andy Kuhn on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin, which IDW Publishing will release in the summer of 2020. A house ad for the project appears in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #100 but provided no further details on the project's premise. Eastman and Waltz worked together on 100 issues of IDW’s ongoing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series, which is now the longest-running TMNT comic ever.

Eastman and Laird created Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in 1984. By 1993, following the Turtles' unexpected transformation from niche independent comic into a global franchise, the two had a falling out and stopped working together. In 2000, Eastman sold most of his stake in the franchise to Laird and the mirage group. In 2008, Eastman sold his remaining stake. The last time the two collaborated creatively was on the cover to IDW Publishing’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 30th Anniversary Special in 2014.

Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Nickelodeon's current iteration for the iconic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise, is currently airing.
