No trade dress. Just the art, the issue, and what it means to have followed this story to its conclusion. 🗡️

📜 The Last Ronin: A Landmark in TMNT History

TMNT: The Last Ronin (2020-2022) was a 5-issue limited series that changed what many readers believed a Ninja Turtles story could be. Set in a dark near-future New York where a totalitarian Foot Clan has taken control, the series opens with a single battered Turtle — the Last Ronin — returning to the city with a mission of revenge. 🌃 The identity of the surviving Turtle (revealed to be Michelangelo) and the fates of his brothers were revealed across issues that balanced genuine grief with the kinetic action the franchise has always delivered.

The Last Ronin became one of the best-selling Turtles titles in decades — a mainstream breakout that brought readers back to IDW TMNT from across the fandom. By its conclusion, it had established itself as a modern classic: a story willing to go to genuinely dark places while honoring everything that makes the Turtles matter to the readers who grew up with them. 💔

Re-Evolution is the sequel — continuing the story from where The Last Ronin left it, building on the world and characters the first series established. By issue #5, the Re-Evolution story has reached its deep narrative chapters: the conflicts established across the series are resolving, the stakes are highest, the conclusion is approaching. Franck Uzan's ECC Virgin exclusive for this issue is the collector's piece for this chapter. 🔢

🖼️ Virgin Format: Display-Ready, Uncompromised

The Virgin treatment removes all trade dress — title, logo, issue number — and presents the Franck Uzan cover composition in its complete form. 🖼️ For a story this emotionally significant, the Virgin format makes sense: this is art tied to a specific moment in the TMNT mythology, and the display format honors the gravity of the narrative it covers. TMNT: The Last Ronin II Re-Evolution #5, Franck Uzan, ECC exclusive: no interruptions.
