Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for this!!! I really love Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but I think the coloring scheme on this was something I had trouble reading. The stories are fun and leave you wanting for more of that timeline though.

As someone who owned the TMNT blimp as a child, and occasionally references the Neutrinos in conversation, I feel obligated now and then to pop in and see what's going on with the franchise. This book satisfies that need. Good look at the turtles, a fun pastiche of Frank Miller, and no fomo from not having read the comics for the last eight years.

This graphic novel is a collection of short stories by a variety of authors that give the spotlight to different members, explore the love between the brothers and, of course, pizza is always there for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

These short stories are around ten pages. They are little vignettes of the turtles' life. Some of them are quite silly and comedic, some of them get a bit serious even with the short amount of time they have to explore deeper themes, like Raph's pride for example, or Donnie's self-isolation.

Though the art style varies, I really liked how cohesive this anthology feels with the black, white and green palette.

This was a fun time, but I think the stories were way too short and none of them truly stood out. I feel like I'm going to forget this collection in little time. However, if you are a fan of TMNT I think you should give this one a try.

Thanks to NetGalley and IDW Publishing for this eARC.

Great TMNT anthology of stand-alone one-shots by highly talented creators with some really great artwork.

My husband is a massive TMNT fan, I think he will love this. Sure, an anthology has its highs and lows, sometimes they knock it out of the park and you love each and every one, but I had my favorites. I feel like they had something for everyone, and that was appreciated. I think it was fun, overall. Some of the styles weren't my favorite in the way of illustration, but that is also the great part, sometimes the story overrides that. Thank you to NetGalley for the good fortune to get the ARC of this.
