Relive one of the greatest TMNT stories of all time through the iconic covers that helped make it an instant classic!

“Who is the Last Ronin? In a future, battle-ravaged New York City, a lone surviving Turtle embarks on a seemingly hopeless mission seeking justice for the family he lost.”

That was the premise behind the TMNT finale conceived by Turtles creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird more than 30 years ago. And what an epic it was.

Now, Eastman joins Last Ronin artists Esau and Isaac Escorza and an all-star lineup of top tier talent in a comprehensive showcase of the series’ cover art. Featuring action-packed pieces by Ben Bishop, Mateus Santolouco, Sophie Campbell, Freddie E. Williams II, Peach Momoko, Tyler Kirkham, John Giang, Amanda Conner, Rob Liefeld, Simon Bisley, Stan Sakai, and many more!
Kevin Eastman - Born in 1962 in Portland, Maine, Kevin began drawing as soon as he was able to hold a crayon. His discovery of comic books gave meaning to his crazed doodling. When Kevin discovered and studied the work of Jack Kirby, Russ Heath, Richard Corben, Vaughn Bode and John Severin, he began to hone his craft. His first published work appeared in 1980, a year or so before he met Peter Laird. In May 1984, he and Laird published Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1, creating the hit heroes in a half-shell.
