TMNT Last Ronin Reveals The Last Turtle Left is [SPOILER]

Warning: This article contains spoilers for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin #1

IDW Publishing’s new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series transports readers into a bleak future where decades of global warming and pollution have infected the Earth to such an extent that large bodies of water, possibly whole oceans, now consist entirely of toxic sludge. It is through this brown grime that the last remaining brother of the once unstoppable heroes in a half shell must trudge when traveling to New York City, where all ports of entry (and departure) are cut off. The mission of the final turtle is clear: to bring down Shredder’s grandson, Oroku Hiroto, who rules over the land with an army of robotic ninjas at his command.

But who is the last remaining turtle? It isn’t until the final pages of The Last Ronin’s first issue, by Tom Waltz, Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman, that readers find out his identity because the lone ninja warrior wears a black mask, doesn’t say his name and isn’t spoken to directly for quite some time. The unidentified mutant turtle is also armed with Raphael’s twin sai, Donatello’s effective bo staffs, Michelangelo’s dual nunchaku and Leonardo’s katana. So readers can’t identify him by his weaponry.

Despite the series’ title that implies only one turtle remains, the issue opens with the protagonist speaking to unseen people whose responses are highly characteristic of all four brothers. But these speakers remain elusive; only their words “appear” in each cell. At one point, three other turtles are shown in the shadows, but their true identities are obscured. Could all four brothers still be alive somehow? Unfortunately, as the issue plays out, that possibility grows more and more remote.

TMNT Last Ronin Reveals The Last Turtle Left is [SPOILER]

After a thrilling adventure that sees the sole turtle battling an army of cyborgs, it becomes explicitly clear that the other turtles are indeed gone when the surviving brother acknowledges their deaths. He even arranges all four of their masks and weapons in a manner that emulates a burial after arriving in the sewers as he prepares for ritualistic suicide.

The identity of the Last Ronin is finally revealed at the very end of the first issue after the turtle passes out from blood loss and wakes up to April O’Neil, who says, “I’m so relieved to see you awake, you really had me worried, mister. But who were you just talking to, Michelangelo?” What does this mean for the future of Michelangelo and his long lost brothers? Will they be gone for good? Maybe not. Donatello was once believed to have been killed after the mutants Bebop and Rocksteady savagely beat him and broke his shell. And in Mirage Comics’ Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles continuity, Leonardo passed away after killing Complete Carnage to avenge Radical. So only time will tell what the future holds for Mikey.
