Baxter Stockman

Baxter Stockman has been a thorn in the side of heroes across multiple eras of TMNT lore, and this Modern Age IDW incarnation — debuting in 2013 courtesy of creators Erik Burnham and Dario Brizuela — brings him into the vibrant world of the animated adventures. Running through 2017, his appearances place him squarely alongside the Turtles themselves and their sensei Splinter, as well as the genuinely wild crossover territory of Batman / Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures. With only a handful of catalog appearances, he's a compact but flavorful presence — the kind of recurring antagonist who makes every page he graces a little more unpredictable.
