• Libby Meitner, an inventor and Harold's former wife and partner, who betrayed him for her own profit and has become the chief engineer for Darius Dun and his Street Phantoms.

• Wayne Bishop, the former founder and director of the Earth Protection Force, and father of its current director, Agent John Bishop. After investigating the Roswell incident, he used the technology and alien (Utrom) DNA recovered from the site to aid his son, a preemie, which left John intellectually fully developed but physically a stunted, dwarfish mutant. Long a retiree, Wayne is killed by his son when Hob attempts to use him as a bargaining chip for Slash's release.
• Special Agent Ravenwood, a member of the Earth Protection Force. She is revealed to be the result of a secret government experiment which split her body into six separate entities with a collective consciousness, and bestowed her with superhuman strength, body elasticity, and longevity. Her state makes her empathize with other mutants, including (at least initially) the miscreants Bebop and Rocksteady.

  • Stone, a mutant octopus, and Night, his lemur partner

The main ongoing comic started in August 2011 and has released 113 issues as of January 20, 2021.

As per TMNT tradition, four one-shots (officially a mini-series) were released focusing on each turtle, with issue #4 tying into #9 of the main series. Due to the popularity of the series, IDW announced another four issues, focusing on Master Splinter, Casey Jones, April O'Neil and the Fugitoid. Associate Editor, Bobby Curnow, says that if popularity increases, the Micro-Series will become the IDW equivalent of Mirage's Tales of the TMNT.

In April 2013, a new series of eight one-shots was started, under the title Villains Micro-series.[9] The first four issues focus on Krang, Baxter Stockman, Old Hob and Alopex; subsequent issues focused on Karai, Hun, Bebop & Rocksteady and Shredder.

Between October and December 2018, four issues of a "Macro-Series" were published which focused on the Turtles, but featured much longer narrations.

The Turtles were included in the IDW crossover event Infestation 2. They appeared in one panel in the first issue of the main series. Raphael also appeared on the covers for both issues of the main series; as does Donatello on a variant cover of #1.

The Turtles were also given their own two-part miniseries. A series of strange occurrences leads the Turtles into long forgotten tunnels, where they are forced to confront the Lovecraftian creature Shub-Niggurath and its cult of warped monstrosities.

A 48-page black-and-white annual issue was released in October 2012.[10] Its plot focuses on the loss of a valuable peace offering to the Foot Clan from the Savate Ninja syndicate, which inadvertently proves the catalyst for a vicious gang war that threatens New York City.

A four-part mini-series, titled Secret History of the Foot Clan, was published from January through March 2013. The series tells the story about the founding of the Foot Clan, and additionally provides clues to the impact the conflict in the past will have on the present.[11]

A three-part mini-series, titled Utrom Empire, was started in January 2014. The series focuses on Krang, Professor Honeycutt and Baxter Stockman, as their struggles against each other put the last of the Utrom race into dire peril, as well as including a story about the last days of the titular Utrom empire.[11]

A one-shot, out-of-continuity issue was published in February 2014 as part of the mini-series crossover event The X-Files: Conspiracy. Guest characters include the Lone Gunmen and the vampire characters from the X-Files episode "Bad Blood".[12]

This annual edition features apprentice time mistress Renet and the Battle Nexus Tournament from the Mirage Comics volume 4/TMNT 2K3.[13] Originally slated for April 2014, the release was rescheduled to August due to production difficulties. The Turtles are taken from their home by a dimension-hopping Renet and forced to participate in an interdimensional gladiator contest which by the whim of their initiator, Councilman Nieli, has no winners; but the Turtles, the stubborn Renet and some irritated gladiators intend to change this unbearable condition for the better.

A special edition commemorating the brand's 30th anniversary. Featuring five short stories, one of them entitled "Ready Set Go!" was previously released in Hero Comics 2012;[14] the other four short stories are each set in one of the comic continuities – Mirage, Image, Archie Comics, and IDW – which arose with the franchise.

A four-issue mini-series running from June to September 2014. It was a continuation from the story in TMNT Annual 2014.[15] Some intertemporary after-effect from their trip with Renet displaces the Turtles successively into the age of the dinosaurs, medieval Japan, the age of pirates, and even the future; and in each time period they are forced to make decisions which have shaped – and still might shape – their own fate and that of the world around them.

A four-issue mini-series crossover with IDW's Ghostbusters comic series, celebrating the 30th anniversaries of both franchises. It began publication in October 2014.[16] The story deals with the Turtles and their friends testing a teleportation device whose plans were provided by Professor Honeycutt. Due to a slight mishap during activation, they end up in the Ghostbusters' reality, along with an immortal, hostile creature once known as Chiyou, who seeks domination over mankind.

Another four-issue mini-series dealing with the latest incarnation of the Mighty Mutanimals, published from February to June 2015. Lindsey Baker, Old Hob's human ally and scientific creator of his mutant army, is kidnapped by the security forces of the Null Group, a genetics firm headed by the fiendish Madame Null, who wishes to conquer the world's economy by creating hybrid mutants. As the Mutanimals fight to get Lindsey back, the team – and especially Hob – are forced to seriously reconsider their conduct as mutant liberators.

A story was published as part of the May 2015 Free Comic Book Day. It was a prelude to the Vengeance story arc of the main series (#45–50).[17]

A four-issue mini-series that started publishing in June 2015.[18] Its plot deals with April O'Neil and Casey Jones investigating the contents of a scroll found in the Foot Clan's archives which points out the resting place of a book dealing with a group of immortal entities called the Pantheon, which includes the Rat King and Kitsune in its ranks. During this journey, Casey and April are also forced to do some soul-searching and exploring of their budding relationship.

DC Comics published the six-issue miniseries Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Feb.–July 2016)[19] It is the second intercompany crossover between IDW and DC Comics, after Star Trek/Green Lantern.[20] The story, out of continuity, deals with the Turtles and their master Splinter, along with Shredder and a good number of his Foot Ninjas, having been interdimensionally displaced by their common enemy Krang; an eviction which landed them in Gotham City in the DC Universe.

A weekly five-part miniseries published in June 2016.[21] In this story, Bebop and Rocksteady get their hands on Renet's time scepter and, as the simpletons they are, wreak havoc to all creation as they use the artifact to hop all over time and space, forcing the Turtles and Renet to fix the damage before it becomes irreversible.

A spin-off series similar to Mirage's Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which started publication on August 31, 2016. It serves as a narrative expansion to the main series with the introduction of crucial sideplots and additional characters.[22] The series ended after 25 issues in August 2018.

A story was published as part of the May 2017 Free Comic Book Day. It was a prelude to the Dimension X story arc of the main series (#73–75).[23]

A one-shot crossover story re-uniting the Turtles franchise with Stan Sakai's Usagi Yojimbo, which also references Usagi's earlier encounters with the Mirage-Turtles.[24] Here, the Turtles must join forces with Miyamoto Usagi and the mystic Kakera against Usagi's sinister enemy Jei und Namazu. This issue was published in July 2017.

A five-issue limited series which started weekly publication on August 2, 2017. Its plot is a tie-in to the main series' "The Trial of Krang" storyline (issues #73–75), dealing with the Turtles and Professor Honeycutt trying to locate several material witnesses for Krang's trial before Krang's hired assassin, Hakk-R, can get to them first.

A free sampler comic reviewing the series from issues #1 to #73 and Dimension X, which was distributed on October 25, 2017 by selected comic stores for the occasion of issue #75's publication.[25]

In July 2017, IDW announced a sequel series to the 2014–2015 TMNT/Ghostbusters crossover, scheduled for weekly publication starting November 1, 2017.[26][27] Setting in upon the conclusion of issue #75, the Turtles are stranded in a spirit dimension where they are beset by the vengeful ghost of their late adversary Darius Dun and must get help from the Ghostbusters in order to ever stand a chance of returning home again.

Guest appearances within the story include the Dark Turtles from the 2003 series' Fast Forward season, and Shibano and an alternate version of the Punk Frogs from the 1987 TMNT cartoon series. Additionally, an action figure assortment named Ninja Ghostbusters was issued for sale parallel to the publication of the mini-series;[27][28] the Ninja Ghostbusters also have a guest appearance within the comic story itself.

A six-issue sequel series to Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was announced, with the first two issues being planned for release on December 6 and December 20, respectively.[29] The plot deals with Donatello's desire to become a stronger fighter, which drives him into activating an interdimensional doorway to ask Batman for help. Unfortunately, this deed accidentally unleashes Bane on New York City, who loses no time uniting the Foot Clan, which is fractured by internal discord, under his rule. Batman and Robin therefore must travel to the Turtles' reality to aid their mutant friends in bringing down their common foe.

Another weekly five-part miniseries starring Bebop and Rocksteady which entered publication in August 2018, as a follow-up to the Destroy Everything! storyline.[30] Bebop and Rocksteady engage on a two-man roadtrip across the United States, but new and old enemies, as well as a number of hazards lying on the way – including their inexplicable transformation back into their former human forms – begin to pose a collection of serious obstacles for their plans.

IDW 20/20 is a multiple-issue, 20th-anniversary comic special with plot settings in the main comic franchises published by IDW: Ghostbusters, Jem and The Holograms, My Little Pony, Star Trek, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Each issue features a one-shot story set 20 years in the respective franchise's future; in the case of the Turtles, it entails the aftereffect of a civil war between the Utroms which threatens to destroy Earth once again.[31] The TMNT issue was released on January 16, 2019.

Shredder in Hell is a limited five-issue series picking up on The Secret History on the Foot Clan, Villains Micro-Series #8: Shedder, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #50. As the Shredder wanders the afterlife, companions and enemies of old join him on or try to hinder his journey to find redemption from his cruel, ruthless past in life and his forced destiny to become the Dragon's vessel. The mini-series was released for publication in January 2019.[32]

The publication of a third and final installment of the successful crossover miniseries was announced on February 15, 2019 for May in the same year.[33][34] In this series, Krang is presented as the main adversary, and with the most dangerous technology from the DC Universe in his hands, he merges the DC and the TMNT universes into an amalgam reality, where Batman was raised by Splinter alongside the Ninja Turtles following his parents' murder. Escaping from Krang after being abducted along the rest of the original Mirage turtles and Pre-Crisis Batman, Mirage Raphael alerts the Batman and Ninja Turtles of this merged world about Krang's meddling with reality. Now, in order to separate the merged world back, the five heroes need to find their old allies, regain their memories of the original universes, and stop Krang and the Laughing Man (Joker with elements of the Shredder).

A Free Comic Book Day issue (May 2019) connected to the main story issues #93-#95. A secondary story, Road to War, is also included, and is subsequently updated in TMNT: Road to 100 (November 2019).

A crossover project between the Power Rangers and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchises (the second one since Power Rangers in Space) was announced.[35] The series went into publication on December 4, 2019. The non-canon story (in which the Power Rangers universe and the Ninja Turtles continuities of the IDW comics and the 1987 series are merged into one reality) deals with the Power Rangers confronting - and later teaming up with - the Turtles while looking for one of their number, Tommy, who has to everyone's surprise joined the Foot Clan.

A three-issue miniseries starring the original IDW character Jennika was announced for a 2020 publication in November 2019.[36][37] In this plot, past, present and future collide for Jennika when she is forced to face the ghosts from her former human life and is given a chance to permanently reverse her mutation.

Another special annual story was scheduled for publication in June 2020 but delayed until late July due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It deals with the aftermath of The Dragon's defeat during the "City at War" storyline, the Rat King's attempt to find himself a new pawn to carry on his game of eternal intrigue, and an old enemy returning from the dead.

A limited five-issue story based on an unused idea by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird for the Mirage comics (hence making it the first IDW title crediting Laird's participation). Originally set for publication in August 2020, it was rescheduled to be released in October. Its plot tells a story set in the future where a lone surviving Turtle seeks vengeance against the master of the Foot Clan for his lost family and friends.[38]

Due to the popularity of the Jennika mini-series, a sequel limited series with six issues was announced in August 2020 for publication in November of the same year.[39] In this story, Jennika is forced to unite with Ivan in order to discover the source of dangerous, monstrous transformations among the people of Mutant Town while the rest of the world is casting a suspicious eye at their transmuted neighbors.
