Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #97

A fierce young woman raises twin blades with cold determination at the center of this striking 2019 IDW cover, wreathed in swirling crimson energy that spells out "City at War" in bold, smoky lettering — Dave Wachter's pencils and inks delivering real dramatic weight. Part 5 of the "City at War" arc finds this series deep in one of its most intense storylines, with the cover's tension and red-drenched atmosphere promising high stakes throughout. With Tom Waltz, Kevin Eastman, and Bobby Curnow co-writing and Michael Dialynas on interior art, this issue brings together a strong creative team at the height of IDW's acclaimed TMNT run.
