Michelangelo

The fun-loving, nunchaku-wielding member of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Michelangelo crossed over into DC's Superman titles in 1990, appearing alongside brothers Leonardo, Raphael, and Donatello — and their arch-nemesis Shredder — in a superhero team-up adventure.

A Copper Age creation stepping onto the page in the pages of Superman #42 in 1990, this DC character — brought to life by the talented Jerry Ordway — carved out a presence across some of the most storied Superman titles of their era, including Adventures of Superman and Action Comics. Sharing adventures with a colorful cast that includes Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and even the villainous Shredder, Michelangelo's appearances carry an undeniable sense of fun and crossover energy. While the catalog count is modest at seven appearances across a nearly two-decade span, that kind of longevity in the Superman corner of the DC universe speaks to a character worth tracking down for the dedicated collector hunting for the unexpected and offbeat.
