IDW Previews New 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle' Titles Set for May 2026

From kaiju-sized threats to cybernetic horror and a major push toward issue #300, May proves the TMNT line is firing on all cylinders.

May is shaping up to be a huge month for the Turtles, and IDW, through AIPT, has unveiled an awesome first look at what’s ahead across the entire line. Not only are things heating up across multiple books, but also the march toward Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #300 and “The City That Never Dies” storyline is getting closer by the week.

If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to jump in or lock in your pull list, this is it.

TMNT #18 (on sale 5/13)

The Ujigami saga reaches its breaking point

The main series continues to swing big, delivering one of the wildest visuals of the arc as Donatello finds himself inside the ribcage of a towering skeletal monster. With Splinter restored but still fractured, the stakes are as emotional as they are explosive.

The real focus is on putting the Hamato family back together, even as the threat escalates around them. That core theme continues to define this run, and it is exactly why you should have this book on your pull list right now.

With #300 on the horizon, every issue is building toward something major.

TMNT: Shredder #8 (on sale 5/20)

Shredder vs. techno-horror

If you’re not reading Shredder, you’re missing one of the most intense books in the line right now.

The Dog Star Clan has been overtaken by a terrifying cybernetic infection, turning warriors into grotesque machine hybrids. Shredder is not backing down. He is charging straight into the chaos, even as the threat evolves beyond simple steel and skill.

The series leans hard into brutal action while pushing Shredder into a darker, more unsettling space. This one continues to hit hard every month.

Tales of the TMNT #6 (on sale 5/20)

Fugitoid steps up

The Tales series continues to expand the Mutant Mayhem universe with a high-stakes showdown.

With the Turtles trapped alongside Zog and enemies closing in, Fugitoid is forced to take control of the situation. Drawing on both his humanity and his training, he steps into the spotlight in a big way.

It’s a mission to keep the Turtles alive, but also for Fugitoid to discover himself.

TMNT: Saturday Morning Adventures #37 (on sale 5/27)

Panda Khan enters the chaos

Things get wild in Saturday Morning Adventures as Panda Khan makes his long-awaited debut.

A warrior from another dimension lands in New York, bringing sword-swinging action and a battle against sinister sorceresses. The result is pure Saturday morning chaos in the best way possible.

Not only is this a fun throwback, but also a reminder of how versatile the TMNT universe can be.

And if you like your action sharp and relentless, Shredder should be locked in too.
