Introducing JENNIKA: The 5th New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle!
A 5th NEW Ninja Turtle will be introduced in TMNT Issue #97 from IDW Publishing!
Named "Jennika", her mutation/transformation is the result of a blood-transfusion from heroes in half-shells, and she wears a yellow bandana (you can read her story/genesis on io9.gizmodo.com). Featured here are images/illustrations galore by Sophie Campbell (Twitter @mooncalfe1) and Michael Dialynas (Twitter @theWoodenKing), and frankly I wouldn't be too surprised to see a toy (or an incarnation / custom of) at the coming San Diego Comic Con 2019 (18-21 July) ... or even COSPLAY for that matter!
Cat's out of the bag now, so here's some concept art I did two years ago (can't believe it's been that long) for mutated Jennika, the new Turtle!! @TomWaltz @thedisastrix @IDWPublishing pic.twitter.com/FtrJsK9Deb

Due to the recent storyline in TMNT: City At War, we have created a unique “Spoiler Reveal” variant of TMNT #95 to commemorate the newest Turtle, Jennika! We will be pre-selling copies for this book for #SDCC attendees ONLY and limiting it to 1 per person. https://t.co/gSqIfr94LD pic.twitter.com/JKe1qRauhP
