TMNT: How Powerful Each Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Really Is

How strong are the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Donatello, Raphael, Leonardo, and Michelangelo all have different skills and abilities shown in the comics, video games, cartoons, and movies. While they’re brothers-in-arms, they’re not equal. Leo might be the leader, and Raph the toughest, but Donnie’s intellect and Michelangelo’s unquantifiable Mikey-ness are assets in their own right. Though there have been some slight variations, most iterations of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles share the same origin story. Prior to being humanoid, pizza-loving, ninjitsu experts, the four main characters originated as turtles named after four celebrated painters from the Renaissance era.
