"One of the most anticipated comics of the year, and the colorful yet dark dystopian story definitely delivers."
—Den of Geek, voted by writers and readers as one of the Best Comics of 2021"Point blank reaction: I enjoyed the hell out of this book.
The Last Ronin is an absolute blast."

"For
TMNT fans this has been a long time coming to see Laird and Eastman back together again. They have surrounded themselves with an all-star team that shares their passion for
TMNT storytelling and the end product is nothing short of amazing. Frank Miller has
The Dark Knight Returns and now Laird, Eastman, and Waltz have
The Last Ronin."
—Comic Watch
"What's great about this story is that it truly stands alone. In truth, if you've watched the original live-action TMNT movie, you have all you need to truly appreciate this comic book. And if you've been reading the comic books, watching the television shows and films, and played the games? This story will take you on an emotional rollercoaster."
—Newsarama"It's
TMNT by way of
The Dark Knight Returns, down to the gritty internal monologues and vaguely cyberpunk aesthetic."
—ComicBook.com
"A must-read for both new and old
TMNT fans."
—Monkeys Fighting Robots
"This book is awesome, if you’re a fan of the
TMNT you probably already have this on your pull list, and you won’t regret it! If you’re still not aboard the cowabunga train, I still say pick it up, this story has such an emotional core and deserves to be read."
—Comics: The Gathering
"This just might be the best
Ninja Turtles comic ever created."
—Comics Bulletin
"Terrific visuals, fluid panels, and a cast of interesting characters, highlighted by a terrifying background. It does not waste any time. Dives in on the action."
—Comic Crusaders
"Any
TMNT fan can pick this up and enjoy."
—Word Of The Nerd
"Despite the fact that this is solidly set in the future of the current run of IDW comics, you dont need to have read a single issue to understand
The Last Ronin. Frankly, any fan of the recent Old Person ___ comics need to check out this comic, as does any Turtle fan."
—You Don't Read Comics
"A dream come true for
Ninja Turtles fans. It feels like the culmination of the original run of the series, and then some. Absolutely a must-read for anyone who loves these characters and their world."
—AIPT
"This is what a sweeping epic is and should be plain and simple. It’s beautifully written with striking characterisation and bloody stunning interiors and it is without a doubt one of the most poignant and profound reads on stands right now."
