As you may have heard, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is making an animated comeback thanks to Nickelodeon. Thanks to Toy Ark, we have our first real look at the characters and art from the show.

The series is set to debut on Nickelodeon this year. I'm a huge fan of the TMNT crew. I grew up watching the original cartoon, and reading the comics, and I hope the series turns out to be good.

Here's the synopsis:

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are a fictional team of four human/turtle hybrids, who were trained by their human/rat hybrid sensei in the art of ninjutsu and named after four Renaissance artists. From their home in the storm sewers of New York City, they battle petty criminals, evil megalomaniacs, and alien invaders, all while remaining isolated from society at large

The 26 episode series is set to debut in 2012 on Nickelodeon. Check out the images of the Ninja Turtles below, and hit us up with your thoughts!
