TMNT #18 (on sale 5/13)
The Ujigami saga reaches its breaking point
The main series continues to swing big, delivering one of the wildest visuals of the arc as Donatello finds himself inside the ribcage of a towering skeletal monster. With Splinter restored but still fractured, the stakes are as emotional as they are explosive.
The real focus is on putting the Hamato family back together, even as the threat escalates around them. That core theme continues to define this run, and it is exactly why you should have this book on your pull list right now.
With #300 on the horizon, every issue is building toward something major.

TMNT: Shredder #8 (on sale 5/20)
Shredder vs. techno-horror
If you’re not reading Shredder, you’re missing one of the most intense books in the line right now.
The Dog Star Clan has been overtaken by a terrifying cybernetic infection, turning warriors into grotesque machine hybrids. Shredder is not backing down. He is charging straight into the chaos, even as the threat evolves beyond simple steel and skill.
The series leans hard into brutal action while pushing Shredder into a darker, more unsettling space. This one continues to hit hard every month.
