Since their debut, the quartet of Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michaelangelo have been part of millennial nostalgia around the globe. Created in May 1984 by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, the story of four mutated turtles from New York, named after Renaissance masters and trained in the ninja arts, was definitive of the ’90s. From their love for pizza to the catchphrase of Cowabunga, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) franchise stood out for teen humour, pop-culture and the visual style. Now, it is time for a transition.
