SDCC 2026: IDW Unveils Big Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2027 Plans

A new wave of Turtle fandom is coming to comic shops in 2027.

When the best-selling TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES (TMNT) flagship series reaches issue #25 in 2027, current writer Gene Luen Yang will pass the bo staff to award-winning writer Matthew Rosenberg (If Destruction Be Our Lot, Spawn, Uncanny X-Men) and amazing artist Juann Cabal (Daredevil, Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, Elektra). While the acclaimed writer is no stranger to playing in Marvel and DC’s sandbox, it’s the indie space where he has truly thrived and made an unforgettable impact on the comic industry. Rosenberg, a lifelong resident of the Turtles’ very own New York City, is bringing this same energy to the Heroes in a Half-Shell. Prepare for a thrilling story as the greatest roster of villains, both new and old, have assembled to hunt down the Turtles over the course of a single night.
