TMNT: The Last Ronin—Director’s Cut

    (IDW, 2023)

Go behind the scenes of the New York Times-bestseller with over 75 pages of character designs, concept art, and sketches as well as parts of the original draft idea from TMNT co-creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird! In a future, battle-ravaged New York City, a lone surviving Turtle embarks on a seemingly hopeless mission seeking justice for the family he lost. Now see how a simple story concept, set aside more than thirty years ago, took on new life to become the biggest TMNT event in decades. Original Turtles creators Eastman and Laird are joined by series writer Tom Waltz and artists Esau & Isaac Escorza and Ben Bishop to reveal the development process that led to the recovery of a beloved idea from the depths of a forgotten desk drawer to a fully-realized project.
