Raphael by Joëlle Jones
"For me working on TMNT was first a nostalgia hit, being an '80s kid I consumed it all!" Jones said. "But at its heart, and why I think it still resonates with people today, is that it's a story about a family of outcasts brimming with personality and the conflicts that come out of it! Or maybe I just like the giant rat father figure, which might be something for me to unpack with a therapist at a later date!"
Michelangelo by Rafael Albuquerque
"I'm thrilled to be working with Jason on such a special project, with so many talented artists," Albuquerque said. "Being a child from the '80s, the TMNT cartoon has a special place in my heart, so having the chance to draw them for the first time kind of completes a full circle, full of nostalgia and excitement. I can't wait to reveal what we're working on!"
Leonardo by Cliff Chiang
"I still remember the thrill of reading those early black-and-white issues and how they ushered in a new wave of independent comics, and I'm incredibly excited to be a part of this next chapter for the Turtles," Chiang said. "Even better, Jason and I have been friends for a long time but haven't yet worked together, so I get to kill two Mousers with one sword."
Donatello by Chris Burnham
"I am SO excited to be working on the Turtles!" Burnham said. "I've been a TMNT fan since the black and white days – Fugitoid is one of the first comics I ever owned, and the original Donatello One-Issue Micro Series is one of my favorite comics of all time! I discovered so many amazing artists as a kid reading the Turtles – beyond Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird there's Mark Bodé, Rick Veitch, Mark Martin, Richard Corben, Michael Zulli, Eric Talbot, Jim Lawson, Sophie Campbell… the list goes on and on and it's a great honor to add my name to it!"
