In 2009 Mirage Studios sold the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to Viacom for a tidy $60 million. One of the consequences of that sale was that the Turtles comics needed a new home. That home ended up being IDW Publishing, who have crafted TMNT comics since 2011 in a brand-new continuity.
The long-running Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic book series and its various supplemental comics have been top-notch. With exciting stories and plenty of depth, the comics found a happy medium for all the different interpretations of the Turtles over the years.
With almost ten years of comics, and many supplemental one-shots and miniseries, it can be a daunting task figuring out how to read IDW’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Fortunately, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (IDW Continuity) Reading Order Guide is here to help. It includes the recommended reading order, collected editions, and much more.
Happy reading, dude!
Which TMNT Comics Are Part Of This Reading Order?
This reading order is for the IDW continuity of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics, which includes the long running series and the spin-offs. While IDW has also published and reprinted other Turtles comics, the list only includes the IDW continuity as these all fit together in a cohesive universe.
Comic book series that are not included are:
- The original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird at Mirage Studios.
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures comics, which are based off the classic animated series and were published by Archie Comics.
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Urban Legends, which was originally published by Image Comics but is being completed by IDW Publishing.
While the IDW Universe is inspired by these comics, they’re all part of their own continuities and can be read independently from each other.
Do I Need To Read Everything?
You don’t have to if you don’t want to. There’s almost ten years worth of comics in this list, with many auxiliary miniseries along the way and IDW don’t expect you to read absolutely everything.
While the list caters for people who want to see how everything fits together, it works equally as well for those who just want to read parts. It’s a good way to see how the miniseries and one-shots fit into the wider continuity.
If you don’t want to read everything, I recommend reading the main series (it’s where all the major events happen) and picking up any supplemental material that appeals to you. This could be based on the plot-points, creative team, or the characters that are featured.
Some miniseries or one-shots are closer linked to the main series than others. These usually explore something that’s happening on in the background of the main series or explore characters that were introduced in the main comic book series.
That being said, there are also miniseries that are self-contained stories that don’t require to know what’s going on in the wider continuity. Examples of these include the crossover with Ghostbusters and the Turtles in Time miniseries.
Where Can I Find These Comics?
IDW’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics can be found in all good comic book stores, online stores, eBay, and digitally on Amazon/Kindle or the IDW website.

Man this site is a great find, first Google search result (maybe the only one), so bravo! We appreciate the time and energy this takes, can’t believe you’re current and keeping it going, kudos and thank you!
FCBD 2015 should be read after issue 45
Thank you so much for the collection research
I’ve been a long time fan of the ninja turtles, but only recently stumbled on their comics. Small town, one shop. How can I get caught up on the series? Like, 1-99? I have missed out on almost EVERYTHING! Especially the intro of jennika. Please, how do I get a print of these? I’m not totally concerned on which covers I get, I just want to have them to read over and over. Any clue? Ebay is hit and miss
Hey Sean, I have a few different options listed in the “Where Can I Find These Comics?” section, but it sounds like online is the way to go for you. Any good online store will have the trade paperbacks or hardcover collections in stock. You could track down the single issues, but the early ones tend to be hard to find and a bit on the pricey side. It hope that helps!
