    Summary

    “Time?” Mikey asked.

    Leo had stolen a watch off a Krangified human a couple months back. After a thorough wash with clean water (Donnie insisted), he’d been permitted to strap it to his wrist. “Almost four. Gonna have to wait out the rain, so we might as well have Meal Three while we’re here.”

    “I wish you’d call it dinner,” Mikey sighed.

    “I will not,” Leo replied. “It’s the apocalypse. I’m taking every opportunity to define the slang of the era.”

    “Sue me for wanting a little normalcy, Leon.”

    “If our meal times were normal…” Donnie began.

    “Yeah, yeah.” Mikey dropped his bag off his shoulder and dug through it. “How’s everyone feel about a nice tomato and oregano dinner?”

    “Chef’s choice,” Raph rumbled exhaustedly.

    The world just ended?!?! Oh no! Three months into the Krang Apocalypse, the battered Hamato brothers pick their way through the desolate, ravaged remains of New York, scavenging for food and supplies as they try to stay alive long enough to beat the Krang. Spoiler: they definitely won’t beat the Krang.

    Or: the shitty lives of the Bad Future bros BEFORE their Future got Bad. The Shmedium-Bad Future, if you will.

    Summary

    Donnie chuckled under his breath.

    “What?” Raph asked.

    “Nothing. I thought that squirrel seemed a little nutty.” Donnie paused, eyebrows raised, but Raph did not give him the satisfaction of a laugh. “Uh, nevermind. The fridge works fine. It’s just the lightbulb that’s out.”

    “Oh, great,” Raph said. “Give it a twist and let’s get the hell out of here.”

    “Mikey would’ve laughed.”

    “I’m not Mikey.”

    “No,” Donnie sighed. “You’re not.”

    Raph wished he remembered enough about his youngest brother to understand all the nuanced layers of meaning in Donnie’s statement. But since he didn’t, Raph let it pass.

    The M-Bomb has detonated over New York City. Having lost his family and his memory, Raph wanders through an apocalypse with nothing to tie him to his past except his brother, Donatello.

    Will they survive?!?!?! (probably not)

    Summary

    Reality hasn’t quite sunk in yet, he thinks.

    It’s not until he takes a step back, not until his foot crunches on something hard and triangular, that the sheer weight of what’s happened crashes down on him. His body is trembling, his stomach churning, and there’s a hot stinging pain behind his eyes as he lifts his leg to get a look at what he just stepped on.

    It’s no bigger than a bottle cap. Could be some bit of debris, but no, it’s caked in blood and patterned with an unmistakable texture. The little piece of shell is like a knife—it even drew a bit of blood from the bottom of his toe. And dammit, it’s not the only piece. He’s standing in a minefield of shattered turtle shell.

    Raphael thinks he might puke.

    IDW Raphael reflects on his relationship with his genius brother, whose facial expressions leave something to be desired.

    Summary

    He stared at the little clip and listened to what was apparently his own heart beating. It was a very weird moment to realize that while he knew what the rhythm of his own heart was, he did not know his own name, where he was, or what happened to him.
