According to Martin’s replies in the thread, the source comes from the Russian TMNT forum “Turtle Power.” In the original post, we only know the release window and that Jorge Jimenez did the cover. For reference, Jorge Jimenez is a comic book artist who’s well known for his work on multiple Batman and Superman series. There’s no information yet as to who the writers are for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x Naruto miniseries and, nor do we know what the story will be about.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles first came out in 1984, with action figures and an animated series coming out in the 1980s as well. The story follows Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo, who are four anthropomorphic turtles who live in the sewers of New York City. Sewer rat sensei Splinter taught them ninjutsu, which they use to fight crime. In their off time, they enjoy stereotypical teenager activities like playing video games and eating pizza. Naruto (of Naruto) is a teenager who likes to eat ramen and can use ninjutsu. He also has a sensei with hair that’s similar to the color of a rat’s fur. So they have that in common.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x Naruto comic miniseries should come out in October 2024. More information will appear closer to the release window.
