Release #9 - Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Director's Cut (2016-) #1

New York City: The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles face the battle of a lifetime, fighting not only the fearsome Foot Clan and their leader, the Shredder, but also the alien forces of General Krang … which is exactly Krang's plan. Now a single dimensional warp can rid him of both of his greatest rivals in one fell swoop! Gotham City: From the Penguin to Killer Croc to Ra's al Ghul and beyond, the cowled crime fighter known as Batman has his hands full dealing with an already-overflowing gallery of rogues. Suddenly, a new enemy emerges in the form of the Shredder and his ninja followers, transported to Gotham and unleashed upon an unsuspecting world. Now they're on the hunt for the technology that will allow them return home … and conquer Gotham City along the way! Heroes come in all shapes and sizes, however, and the Caped Crusader won't be fighting alone. But even with their combined talents, can this all-star team of Batman, Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, Raphael and their teacher, Master Splinter, take down the most vicious villains from multiple dimensions?
