TMNT and Power Rangers Reunite One Last Time in Comics
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III #1 by Ryan Parrott and Vincenzo Federici
Hitting comic shelves on July 12, 2025, this latest chapter in the Power Rangers and Ninja Turtles’ joint adventures is one that can’t be missed. Pairing Rita Repulsa with Shredder in the originalMMPR/TMNTseries, Rita nextworked alongside Krangfor its well-received follow-up. Now,MMPR/TMNT IIIis giving fans one final villain team-up for the ages.
Finally bringing Lord Zedd and Shredder together in a way that will make both teams quake in their respective shells and boots, the plot details forMighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IIIare scarce at the moment. But a Zedd and Shredder partnership is one story fans have wanted to see for decades.
Having already crossed paths twice before in comics, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers have become fast friends and even better crime-fighting colleagues. Learning much from one another after successfully defeating Shredder, Rita, and Krang, theseTMNT x Power Rangers crossovershave done a great job turning these heroes into far more well-rounded people.
Whether showing Donnie and Billy putting their tech-savvy brains together, Splinter and Zordon bonding over a game of chess, or even April O’Neill getting her chance to shine as the new Pink Ranger,MMPR/TMNThas done a great job of capturing the spirit of these iconic ‘90s franchises, withMMPR/TMNT IIIlooking to continue that creative streak.
What Threat Will Unite The Ninja Turtles and Power Rangers?
Previous Crossovers Saw Both Teams Work Together in Unique Ways
Using Shadow Morphers to temporarily transform into Turtle Rangers inMMPR/TMNT, Leo, Donnie, Raph, and Mikey then becameDimension X Rangers in the second miniseries, showing just how wild a crossover like this can get. Throw in some Turtle Megazord and Dragon Turtlezord action, andMMPR/TMNT IIIhas its work cut out trying to one-up what came before.
Given all of these developments, it stands to reason thatMMPR/TMNT IIIwill add even more new elements to the lore created in these series. And since Shredder and Zedd are the Turtles and Rangers’ respective Big Bads, both teams will likely need to pull out all the stops to defeat these iconic villains once and for all.
From developing an improved Turtles x Rangers zord to enlisting the help of other allies hailing from their respective worlds to possibly even creating a totally new multi-colored and multi-powered fighter that can stand toe-to-toe with Shredder and Zedd, the possibilities for this last crossover story are endless.
Luckily for fans,Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III #1’s release is just around the corner, and if it’s anything like what’s come before, bringing the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers back together will be something that ‘90s-era kids won’t be able to resist.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III #1will be available on June 29, 2025 from Boom! Studios.
