The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have seen quite a few iterations, but none have been as popular or beloved as the iconic '80s cartoon that introduced the characters to the world at large. Now, IDW will publish Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Saturday Morning Adventures, a four-issue limited series by Erik Burnham and Tim Lattie that adapts the animated series for comics.

Saturday Morning Adventures will try to capture the aesthetic of the series that debuted in 1987 featuring "awesomely absurd" concepts like the Turtles getting trapped in a VR simulator, or "one of General Krang's stalwart stone soldiers abandoning their post in pursuit of hair-metal superstardom."
The new series comes on the heels of the recent completion of IDW's TMNT: The Last Ronin limited series on the opposite end of the "aesthetic" spectrum. That was a Mature Readers look at the last Turtles story featuring the deaths of all four brothers.
Lattie adds, "Growing up in the late '80s, nothing was like the experience of discovering TMNT: playing with the toys, watching the show, or waiting in a crowd with the hopes of getting a chance to try your luck at the arcade game. It's rare enough in life to be able to do what you love for work, but to work on something you grew up loving is hard to comprehend. What else is there to say... Go ninja, go ninja, go!"
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Saturday Morning Adventures #1 will hit shelves in September, with main cover art and an additional variant by Lattie, as well as variants by TMNT co-creator Kevin Eastman and Tony Gregori.
