The original incarnation of Eastman and Laird's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and the one that lit the firecracker. The first issue appeared in May 1984.After the unexpected success of their first issue, Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird continued expanding their universe in a somewhat haphazard manner, both in the regular series and complementary books such as Tales of the TMNT and various one-shots and specials. Over time, an overall arc emerged, dealing with the turtles' enmity with the Foot, which is at the heart of the book's four major stories: the initial issue, which featured the Shredder's death; a two-parter which featured his return and the turtles' exile from New York; "Return to New York", in which the Shredder is killed off for real, and "City at War", which dealt with the aftermath. In between those stories, the book would focus on mostly stand-alone stories created either by Mirage employees themselves or guest creators. These stories would fluctuate wildly in tone and content. Several, particularly those by guest creators, now have dubious canonicity. This first series concluded with the aforementioned "City at War", which ended the Foot/Turtle conflict, introduced regular characters Karai and Shadow, and is considered by many to be the definitive TMNT story.Soon after, a second incarnation of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was born, written and drawn by long-time Mirage employee Jim Lawson, and, unlike the first volume, in full color. This second series featured the return of Baxter Stockman and Nobody, introduced government organization D.A.R.P.A., and Mr. Braunze, the mysterious man with psychic powers living in April's apartment building. However, the series proved short-lived, folding after only 13 issues.The book was soon revived under a third volume, published by Image Comics as the official continuation of the Mirage continuity. It is mostly remembered for mutilating three out of the four turtles: Raph lost an eye and got various facial scarring; Leo lost a hand; and Don was so badly hurt he was forced to become a cyborg. Other notable events include Splinter's transformation into a bat-like creature; the introduction of Pimiko, a female ninja who was eventually revealed to be the Shredder's daughter; and the expansion of Shredder mantle to a full-blown legacy, with both Raphael and an unknown female (Karai, according to Word of God after the fact) taking on the identity. The series ended inconclusively with cancellation, and although it was subsequently removed from canon, nods to it would appear once in a while. It also saw two attempts at a proper ending - first a fan-made attempt in 2012 working from notes provided by the original team, and again in 2020, when the entire series was reprinted as "TMNT: Urban Legends", and original creative team Gary Carlson and Frank Fosco returned to publish three new, final issues, which wrapped up the story and (more or less) lined it up with later continuity.The year 2001 saw yet another version of the book, this time helmed by turtles co-creator Peter Laird. Fifteen years after the events of volume 2, the turtles have now returned to the sewers, Casey and April are now married, and Splinter lives in Northampton with Shadow, who is now a teenager. The Utroms have announced their existence to humanity and have opened Earth up to interstellar trade, meaning that the turtles can now live in the open. It has proven controversial, thanks in part to plots such as the death of Splinter and the revelation that April was not actually born, but rather a drawing come to life.Midway through its run, the book was joined by a second incarnation of Tales of the TMNT, this time as an anthology book telling stories set through the turtles' lives, told by a variety of writers and artists.In 2006, the regular Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles book ceased regular publication, thanks to Peter Laird's other duties, creative burn-out and the economic disincentives of publishing a money-losing book. While new issues are still being released once in a blue moon, Tales became the de facto main book until the series' cancellation and the sale of the TMNT property to Nickelodeon.IDW Publishing (who has published other licensed Comic Books) has gained the rights for publishing Ninja Turtles comics, which include reprinting this series, though Mirage retains the rights to publish up to 18 new issues a year, something they never used through to their decision to go dormant in 2021. This has made finding it easier than it ever was, so check them out if you're interested.See also: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for information on the franchise in general. |

Dead All Along: During "City At War", an injured Splinter is trapped inside an old silo, and is constantly visited by The Rat King, and who's seemingly cruel and uncaring words end up helping Splinter not just to survive, but also untangle some of the difficulties he had been dealing with at the start of the story. After recovering enough to escape the silo, Splinter stumbles across the long-dead remains of the Rat King, having apparently died after the end of his encounter with the Turtles several years before. |

Bloodier and Gorier: The series itself is this compared to more tame versions of the franchise, but the Bodycount miniseries is this even by the standards of the Mirage comics; let's just say the storyline very much lives up to its name. It's probably the bloodiest story not just in the Mirage continuity, but in the franchise as a whole. |

Crapsack World |
| Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Mirage) (Comic Book) / int_21d70919 |
comment |
Crapsack World: The Mirage universe, as a whole. While there are lighter spots and good things do happen, the recurring theme is that nothing good ever lasts and everything ends in tragedy. Especially the glimpses of the future we get in Tales of the TMNT Vol 2, show that they're headed for a Bad Future and there is nothing they can do to avoid it. It's perhaps best summed up by Kirby's quote in the Donatello one-shot: "Life, at best, is bittersweet". It may not have been intentional by the creators, but these words come to sum up the entire Mirage continuity pretty neatly. |

Aborted Arc: Due to the Mirage series being discontinued, a number of plot points don't receive closure, including a story involving a group of villains interested in Splinter, and another featuring a ninja with a vendetta against Hamato Yoshi. Additionally, the character arcs of Leonardo being stuck in the Battle Nexus, Raphael undergoing a secondary mutation, Michelangelo being lost in space, Donatello being shrunken, and April finding out she's really a drawing come to life through Kirby's crystal remain unresolved. |

Out of Focus |
| Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Mirage) (Comic Book) / int_32da91b8 |
comment |
Out of Focus: The Turtles themselves, especially in Volume 1, often take a back seat to their various guest characters. Mike, compared to the other Turtles. Outside the Michaelangelo spotlight issue, which does paint him as a happy-go-lucky, fun-loving guy, he tends to get ignored by the narrative both when it comes to characterization and any sort of role in the story. Some stories (especially the ones by Michael Dooney) would remember his goofball nature and have him make the occasional silly remark or clown around in the background, but for the most part he was just there as the fourth Turtle, getting very little focus and almost no characterization. He'd start getting bigger roles and more consistent characterization in Volume 3, and had his own storyline going in Volume 4. |

Art Initiates Life: In the Donatello micro-series, Don meets Kirby, an artist who's renting a room in the basement of April's building, who shows him a strange crystal he found that brings anything he draws to life if he attaches it to the pen. Anything drawn with it disappears after a few minutes, with the exception of a mysterious portal, which turns out to lead to a Masters of the Universe-type realm. And unfortunately, all the monsters Kirby's been drawing have been sent there when they disappeared. One of the most controversial plot points of Volume 4 is that the crystal had once belonged to April's father, and she's actually a drawing brought to life. |

Bittersweet Ending |
| Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Mirage) (Comic Book) / int_40cc0c7e |
comment |
Bittersweet Ending: The ending of Volume 1, and the original TMNT series as a whole: New York is left damaged after the Foot Civil War, Gabrielle is dead and Casey is left a widower with an infant daughter to care for, April's father and Karai's daughter are dead, and Splinter has been badly injured and weakened from his experiences in the forest. But the Turtles have achieved a measure of peace with their past, the Foot Elite have been wiped out, ending the Shredder's legacy once and for all, and the Civil War is over. The characters begin to drift back to New York, and start to slowly mend their relationships and look toward the future. It's heavily implied the series as a whole gets this kind of ending despite being discontinued. While Volume 4 ends without any of the four Turtles receiving closure to their troubled situations, Tales of the TMNT has multiple issues set into the future which more or less confirm Leonardo and Michelangelo eventually get back from the Battle Nexus and outer space while Donatello and Raphael eventually cure their shrinking and secondary mutation problems. On the other hand, all the future stories show that even though all four Turtles lead long lives and survive to a ripe old age into the future, they have very bittersweet lives where they lose loved ones and barely keep in contact anymore, with hardship and misery being the one constant in their lives. |

Despite being innocent, April can't risk stopping because the Turtles are hiding in the back of the van. |

Combat Pragmatist: When sent across the galaxy during the TCRI storyline, our heroes have absolutely no problem grabbing rayguns and opening fire on both human troops and aliens. To return the favor, one of the Triceraton's read guard (with jetpacks, positioned to ambush pursuers), who is chasing the Turtles in an aircar, gets his comrade to distract them while he flies under the car and rips the guts out by hand. It's not exactly pragmatic, since he says he's doing it for style. |

Cliffhanger Wall: In the most technical of terms, the final three issues of Urban Legends are this in relation to Volume 4, since they were not only a belated ending to Volume 3, but they were written to be able to at least somewhat fit in Volume 4's continuity. In fact, Nickelodeon hasn't done much with the Mirage continuity in general, and in the rare moments they do, it always takes place at some point before Volume 4. The fact that Peter Laird technically still has the rights to continue Volume 4 himself probably has something to do with it. |

Early-Installment Weirdness |
| Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Mirage) (Comic Book) / int_4f4372e9 |
comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: The overwrought narration from the first issue is gone by the second one, and never really appears again. Also, many elements of the TMNT mythos known to casual fans (Such as April's job as a reporter and the Turtles' pizza obsession and multicolored headbands) originated in the cartoons and the comic adaptation of the cartoons, and do not exist in this universe. The logo of the series of the first issue also has Leonardo holding a bloody katana inside the word "Turtles". This design was never used in the future. Also the cover of the first issue has Don carrying a katana◊ in addition to his bo staff. Outside of the Guest era issue #16, the fact that Don carried a katana is never addressed again. |

Body Horror |
| Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Mirage) (Comic Book) / int_504a1991 |
comment |
Body Horror: Anyone who finds their way to the Sky Highway quickly begin to mutate into grotesque, Big Daddy Roth-esque caricatures of themselves, which can range from just bizarre (Hildagaard) to really, really ugly (Quake Butt, Diddy Wah Daddy, Casey in his mutated form), to outright inhuman (Bone Ugly). The Turtles aren't affected at all because they're already mutants. Ironically, the people who end up on the Sky Highway don't seem to mind their new appearance much, and the Mutato-Heads even decide to return there and become mutants again rather than return to their boring lives on Earth. |

Thus, characters that were alive in volume 4 are guaranteed to survive the events of those three issues. |

Spotlight-Stealing Squad: Raphael, especially in Vol. 1. Of all the Turtles, he gets by far the most attention, and if an issue gives any single Turtle the starring role, it's almost certain to be Raph. This is eventually toned down in Vol. 3 and 4, where the focus is more evenly split between the four Turtles. |

Sim uses a distinctly different inking style that makes the aardvark stand out a bit from the rest of the artwork. |

Nothing Is the Same Anymore: By the time "City At War" takes place, the characters have begun to drift apart, April moves to Los Angeles to be with her sister after their father dies, Casey becomes a drifter, Splinter exiles himself in the woods, and the Turtles find themselves adrift with no purpose. Meanwhile, the Foot civil war is tearing New York apart. |

Reverse Cerebus Syndrome: The first issue is played surprisingly straight, featuring an origin story filled with murder, lust and revenge, and four identical turtles who scowl constantly, brutally cut down a gang of street thugs, and tell the Shredder to commit seppuku. Things get a lot less gritty from the second issue onwards, as the turtles gained more distinct personalities, a good amount of humor was introduced, and the antagonists moved away from street-level humans to more absurd stuff like mad scientists and aliens, although things did tend to get darker and more violent again whenever the Foot clan returned. One of the funnier issues, #8, ironically co-starred the actual Cerebus. |

Convection, Schmonvection: In the first issue, the thermite grenade that Shredder used in a failed suicide attack on the Turtles burned hot enough to vaporize his body apart from a few pieces of his armor, but nothing else in the alley where it went off showed any signs of fire damage. Donatello's bo fell into the alley with Shredder when the grenade went off, and wasn't even scorched (much less completely reduced to ash like it should have been) when Donatello collected it later. |

comment |
So What Do We Do Now?: After the events of "Return To New York", the Turtles grow increasingly listless and frustrated, since their entire lives had been spent training and preparing to face The Shredder, and with his death, they lose all sense of purpose. Made worse by the fact that since they're not human and have to live in hiding, they can't even build normal lives for themselves. This finally comes to a head in "City At War". |

Ret-Canon: A notable aversion. Despite the huge popularity of the '80s cartoon, the Mirage comics never adapted their own continuity to match it (though the characters would occassionally say some variations of "Cowabunga" in both the guest era stories and the canonical ones, including volume 4 of the Mirage comics and volume 2 of Tales of the TMNT). Not until the 2000s did they bring in a handful of outside elements, and then only from the second cartoon — itself significantly Truer to the Text on the Mirage comic anyway. |

This Is Something He's Got to Do Himself: During the assault on the Foot compound in "Return to New York", Raph has gone off the deep end and is out for the Shredder's blood, separating from the rest of his brothers intending to take him down himself. However part way through he's ambushed by Saki's elite guards and it's only Leo's intervention that saves his life. Raph acknowledges that Leo — whom Shredder nearly killed in Leonardo #1, and after Raph called him a coward in part 1 — must confront and defeat the Shredder himself. He then falls back to help Mike and Don, allowing Leo to face Saki one-on-one. |

Race Lift: While April's race was never established during the original comics, or even agreed upon by the creators, her issue #4 redesign gave her several features which coded her as a Woman of Color, which gradually went away. |

Bad Future |
| Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Mirage) (Comic Book) / int_deb39de3 |
comment |
Bad Future: The future of the TMNT universe, glimpsed in occasional Time Travel and Flash Forward stories, is a depressing place. The world has been destroyed by climate change, society has collapsed, strange radioactive monsters now litter the earth, and the Turtles have become estranged from each other for unclear reasons, with the implication that they will never see each other again. And in the rare moment they do see each other again during their later adulthood, it's only to gather together and mourn for Leonardo finding happiness but then having it cruelly snatched away due to him entering into a relationship with Radical, only for Complete Carnage to brutally murder her later on. |

Continuity Snarl |
| Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Mirage) (Comic Book) / int_df582b0b |
comment |
Continuity Snarl: Zig-zagged; as mentioned under Exiled from Continuity on the Trivia page, virtually all of the Guest Artist Era issues were removed from continuity due to legal reasons, and while this isn't a problem for the most part, since almost all of them were standalone stories, there's one exception; #28, "The Sons Of the Silent Age", directly references the events of #25/26, "The River", which no longer officially took place. Here's where the zig-zagged part comes in; when asked years later, Peter Laird admitted that he felt "The River" could take place nicely in the Mirage universe, though as he's no longer the owner of the franchise, he clarified that his statement is only his opinion. Though at the very least, Peter Laird's stance has some merit, since nothing written after the Guest Artist Era has ever outright contradicted "The River", so legal issues are literally the only thing preventing it from being definitively canon. |

| Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Mirage) (Comic Book) / int_e192c0a7 |
comment |
Standard Female Grab Area: Played up to a ridiculous degree with April in issue #14 of Vol. 1. The villain of the issue grabs her by the upper arm, and this makes her so helpless that she doesn't even try to struggle or escape when she's gagged (not bound, just gagged) and then taken away. |

Crossover: Several, notably with Miyamoto Usagi, Cerebus the Aardvark, the Wild West COW Boys Of Moo Mesa, The Flaming Carrot, and The Savage Dragon, among others. As part of the franchise's 25th anniversary, the climax of Turtles Forever sets the Final Battle in the Mirage universe, which is dubbed "Turtle Prime" by the casts of the 1987 and 2003 cartoons. |
