Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Vol. 1: Ongoing Omnibus

Read IDW’s entire epic TMNT ongoing comic series in three easy-to-collect volumes for the first time! Each volume will contain over 1,000 pages of content!

In 2011 IDW launched an ongoing series that would go on to be the longest in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles history, spanning 150 issues. Now is your chance to start from the beginning with these massive omnibuses that will collect 50 issues each! From the beginning, this series told a sprawling tale about family, heroism, and tragedy of epic proportions. TMNT co-creator Kevin Eastman plotted out storylines with original series writer Tom Waltz and then Sophie Campbell, who took over on issue #101. Joining the writers were artists Dan Duncan, Andy Kuhn, Ben Bates, Mateus Santolouco, Cory Smith, and more, who crafted a new style that distinguished it from previous iterations while at the same time adhering to what made the original comics so great.

The first arc begins with Raphael alone wandering the streets of New York City while his brothers and Splinter search for him. As the story progresses, the new origin of the TMNT is revealed! See the first appearances of April, Casey, Old Hob, Baxter Stockman, Krang, Shredder, and more! Read major storylines like “Krang War,” “City Fall,” “Northampton,” “Attack On Technodrome,” and “Vengeance,” which concludes the first 50 issues of the series with a battle that changes the world of the Turtles forever!

These omnibuses offer the perfect opportunity for new readers to catch up on the series and give fans an easy way to collect all the ongoing issues in just three volumes!
