The Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics perfectly captured the vibe and lighthearted tone of the show, so we asked Thomas what the status of the comic series was in light of the show’s cancellation. Not only do we have an exclusive look at issue #5 below, but Thomas revealed that the series is going to continue past the show’s end.
“What I think Mikey Levitt and Andrew Joustra have done is really captured the youth and joy of that show, the real fun, silly, endearing brotherly love that permeates every inch of those stories, and then translated it beautifully into comics. And you cannot underestimate Louie Joyce, that movie and TV show came with such a clear style and voice, and Louie picked it up and made it his own,” Thomas said. “The editor of that book, Ellen Boener, has put together some really fantastic plans for that book that will go beyond the show’s conclusion.”
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Is Set For Big Next Era
There’s a lot to be happy about in terms of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise at the moment. The comics side of the franchise has never been bigger or more varied, with projects set in the present day, the animated series, and the multiverse, and that’s not taking into account all of the cool crossovers like Godzilla and Power Rangers, the solo series like Casey Jones and Shredder, and the future books set in the Last Ronin universe.
