The NINJA TURTLES Get New Gotham-esque Designs For New BATMAN/TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES Comic
IDW and DC are teaming up again for a chapter of their popular Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic series, and the Ninja Turtles are getting cool new redesigns! In fact, all of the characters, Ninja Turtles and DC, all have a cool new look.
The new series will be titled Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: Crisis in a Half Shell, and will be launching later this year.
Some of the character designs you’ll see include Leonardo, whose design has been merged with Nightwing. Raphael, who has Red Hood style. Donatello, whose design is themed after Red Robin. Then there’s Michelangelo, whose design has been combined with Damian Wayne's Robin. You’ll also see character designs for Batman, Joker, Clayface, Harley Quinn, Joker, Splinter, Killer Croc, Deadshot, and Krang.
The new character designs were shared by writer James Tynion IV and artist Freddie Williams II. Check them out below and let us know what you think of the designs!

Let me just say I couldn’t be more excited to return to New Gotham City and revisit the incredible adventures of BATMAN, and his faithful butler. #BTMNT3 pic.twitter.com/oJo3asgNm0
I couldn’t agree more! I’m thrilled to draw them as they do battle against the terrifying LAUGHING MAN, and his vile SMILE CLAN #BTMNT3 pic.twitter.com/n3M1usaA1u
