James Tynion IV

Batman and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles should not fit together this well, which is exactly why the crossover works. Gotham's discipline crashes into sewer-level chaos, Batman meets four teenage fighters who refuse to be intimidated by the myth, and the result is both a real superhero team-up and a joyfully strange collision of worlds. James Tynion IV and Freddie E. Williams II make the premise feel bigger than a novelty by leaning into family, training, monsters and found-home energy.
