Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #300 to Get a Stunning J. Scott Campbell Cover

Frank Miller and a bunch of legendary artists are getting in on the action, too!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles debuted as an indie comic back in 1984. A passion project from creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, TMNT was produced in the friends' humble home's living room and hand-packed by the two men themselves to be sent off to comic book shops around the country.
