Welcome back to TMNT Tuesday, your weekly deep dive into everything happening in the world of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
This week, we’ve got a double dose of exclusive reveals.
First up, we’re sharing an exclusive preview of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #16 (out March 11), and tensions are reaching a breaking point. It’s Ujigami vs. Casey Jones, with Raphael stuck squarely in the middle of the chaos. Ujigami has sworn to protect the Turtles from their greatest enemies, so why is he coming after one of their closest allies? At the same time, Shinigami is making moves behind Karai’s back, setting in motion a dangerous power play that calls for a very specific target and a whole lot of blood.
If you thought this series was escalating before, buckle up.
But that’s not all.
We’re also exclusively revealing the A cover for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #18, and it’s clear that massive developments are on the horizon. The imagery alone signals that the current arc is building toward something seismic, literally, for the Turtles and their allies. Without spoiling what’s coming, let’s just say the road from issue #16 to #18 is not going to be a quiet one.
If you’ve been following this run, now is the time to make sure it’s locked in on your pull list. With storylines tightening and major shifts ahead, you will not want to be scrambling to track down issues after the fact.
Check out the exclusive preview pages for TMNT #16 below, followed by our first look at the A cover for TMNT #18.

It’s Ujigami vs. Casey Jones, with Raphael caught in the middle! The Ujigami has vowed to protect the Turtles from their greatest enemies, so why is he attacking Casey? Meanwhile, Shinigami goes behind Karai’s back to make a power play of her own, involving a dangerous new ally. The first step in their plan requires blood from a very specific target… and in very large amounts!
