This was so entertaining. The Bat and the Ninja Turtles make a great team, highly fun to read about. Of course the Turtles had the funniest lines. My favorite line: Michelangelo to Batman, "Dude. You are not fine unless you have a delicious, gooey piece of pepperoni pizza. It is a delicacy that bridges all men, Turtles and Bat."
I can't wait for the sequel.

I went into this skeptical, but ended up being quite impressed. It delivers pretty much exactly what it promises - managing to make the crossover work in an entertaining, complete, and simply fun story.

Really fun. The character interactions are awesome. The story is really simple, but it doesn't matter. Everything else is awesome (expect the art on few panels).
8/10

Dumb, fun crossover. Shredder and company work surprisingly well in Gotham. Art is very pretty.

Fine, meme worthy, unnecessary crossover, but ok.

A mix of the two things I absolutely love. Batman and TMNT. With that said, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I felt like the characters were on point. From Mikey with his jokes and antics to Raph and his brooding. The tone was also set very well, creating a good mix of dark and comedy, while still keeping the seriousness of the storyline. Although with that said, the pacing felt a little rushed at times, and the villains involved with the exception of Shredder, also felt like they were thrown in just for the heck of it.

All in all it was a good read, and a great edition to my collection of graphic novels. Would recommend to any one who is a fan of TMNT and Batman.

7/10

I'm a big fan of Tynion , I'm a Batman fanboy , I love the turtles , I love art , I love action ... Sooo I don't know , this was like a perfect match for me .

The art work is fantastic for most pages , the only problem was the batman sketches are a bit too muscular and bloated but by the time I reached 25 pages I was accustomed to that and it was just pure bliss thereafter .

Meanwhile the book had a decent , if stereotypical plot , fantastic dialogues , and just badass moments filled till the end pages .

I also liked that they didn't go with Joker as a main baddie as frankly I'm tired of every collaboration comics picking Joker and Joker only .

Overall , If you are one of those people who like to always search for deeper meanings and dark subject matter in their comics (cough Tom King fans Cough) than you would probably hate this book . But If you love comics for their mindless action and fun stories and fun adventure reading time than this is for you my people . A perfect collaboration
