Dark Horse’s solicit for the first issue gives fans an idea of what to expect when the Ninja Turtles find themselves in the land of Eternia: “When the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles came across Krang and Shredder making a deal with some otherworldly ‘demon-mage’ named Skeletor, things got hella-weird, and they ended up in ETERNIA! It turns out, when you mix Utrom mutagen with demon magic you get a nasty purple poison — and it’s brought Eternia to the brink of chaos. So, Leo, Raph, Donnie, and Mikey are teaming up with the Masters of the Universe to kick some blue bony butt. The only problem is… He-Man is missing in action.”
Turtles of Grayskull Creatives Discuss New Series
Turtles of Grayskull series writer Tim Seeley discussed the predestined crossover in Dark Horse’s press release for the new series, saying “As inevitable as a meet up between He-Man and the Turtles has felt, it took some time getting done! And now that it’s here, I have a huge pile of newly purchased figures and a bunch of pages for what is one of the most awesome comics I’ve ever gotten to work on. To say Freddie and I approached this Dark Horse series with some screaming-our-heads-off-style enthusiasm is underselling it a bit. I can’t wait until you get to read this.”

Artist Freddie E. Williams II added: “He-Man and the Ninja Turtles? Tim and I have been discussing potential plots and ideas for a few years, and he still surprised me with an even cooler (unique) way to connect these worlds, and reconnect and connect again…in this bending world hopping, time-skipping approach. This crossover has a long lineage — many of us fans have been bashing He-Man and the Ninja Turtles together since we were kids! And I’m honored and thrilled to draw it!”
