LOS ANGELES, CA (January 23, 2025) – The coolest ninja team-up fans could have ever imagined debuted to a tremendous response, receiving more than 100k orders and glowing reviews from both fans and critics.
Now, IDW Publishing and VIZ Media are immensely proud to announce that TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES x NARUTO #1 is receiving a second printing! Written by Caleb Goellner, drawn by Hendry Prasetya, and featuring a new cover by jaw-dropping artist Jorge Corona, the second printing of the acclaimed first chapter will arrive in comic shops on March 12.
“It doesn’t just take a village to hit a milestone like this, in the case of issue #1 going back for a second printing, it took two,” joked Goellner. “In 2024, I met hundreds of fans at signings across America who love the residents of Hidden Leaf Village just as much as Big Apple Village, and I’ve still got a smile on my face for it. I gotta say a resounding ‘Thank you!’ to everyone who has supported this dream book so far. See you soon in 2025 for more friendship, struggles, and Hendry Prasetya art victories!”
“This crossover is a true testament to the power of fandoms uniting — TMNT and Naruto coming together has not only captivated hearts but also shattered expectations,” added Aub Driver, VP of Marketing at IDW Publishing. “We’re thrilled to see such incredible support, and the second printing is a perfect chance for even more fans to join the adventure.”
