The 2D series is co-executive produced by Andy Suriano (character designer for Samurai Jack) and Ant Ward (supervising producer of the 2012 TV series). The series is said to be lighter and more humor-oriented than its predecessor series.

Synopsis[]

Deep down in the sewers of the hugely populated New York City, Raphael, Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Donatello are four mutant turtle brothers in their teenage years who go on new adventures where they end up "tapping into mystic ninja powers they never knew existed", while learning to work together as a team and navigate the perils of the modern age and hidden realms in order to fulfill their destiny to become a team of true heroes.
