Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Guía y cronología
Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo balance ninja training with the problems of being brothers. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has repeatedly rebuilt their New York world, moving from the Mirage comics into cartoons and several film versions. The familiar names and enemies recur, but each adaptation gives the family its own history and tone.

Repeated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles titles identify different productions. Check the version and year before treating the next entry as a sequel.
Overview & recommendation
The brothers' personalities provide a familiar point of entry, but their family history, city and enemies change between adaptations. A reader interested in the Mirage source and a viewer choosing a television comedy are making different decisions, not beginning different sections of one enormous required chronology.
Some branches have straightforward follow-ups: Tales follows Mutant Mayhem, and the Rise movie belongs after its show. Crossovers can bring versions together without rewriting them as one childhood. The list is a selection of those routes, not a claim to contain every Turtle story or all their exact connections.
Choose a named branch and start at its own introduction. Continue the Mutant Mayhem group with Tales, the 1990s films in their numbered sequence or Rise with its movie afterward. Try other cartoons and reboots as alternative takes, not preparatory work before the chosen brothers can begin.
Versions of the Turtle Family Comics, cartoons and film branches
The source comics and screen interpretations keep distinct histories. Later movie or series projects should be understood within their named branch rather than added to every previous ending.
Mutant Mayhem (3 entries)
Mutant Mayhem's animated family, followed by Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and its own separately listed sequel project.
Mirage Comics (1 entry)
Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird's original Mirage comic source, separate from treating every screen interpretation as its next chapter.
1987 Cartoon (1 entry)
The 1987 cartoon's interpretation of the brothers and their world, begun as its own television route.
1990s Films (3 entries)
The original 1990s live-action film trilogy, followed within that movie family's own history.
2003 Cartoon (2 entries)
The 2003 animated version and Turtles Forever's crossover context, without merging every guest version into a single origin.
2012 Nickelodeon (1 entry)
Nickelodeon's 2012 animated interpretation, introduced independently from the other cartoon families.
Rise of the TMNT (2 entries)
Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles followed by its film continuation, in that version's own story.
Platinum Dunes Reboot (2 entries)
The 2014 live-action reboot and Out of the Shadows, separate from the original movie trilogy.
2028 Film Reboot (1 entry)
The separately announced live-action/CG film interpretation, with its own project identity rather than an assumed continuation of every earlier branch.
