admonition ! This article contains raider for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles : The Armageddon Game # 7The scoundrel featured in the classic ‘ 90sTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtlescartoon have not only become integral part within the current continuity , but also lasting fictional figures for an entire generation of rooter . Now , after becoming a household name more than three decades ago , one of those iconic villains has finally been for good killed .
In IDW Publishing ’s currentTMNTcontinuity , the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are combat a deity known as the Rat King in a occult and street - level war that will decide the fate of the entire major planet . This case is known asThe Armageddon Gameand while the Turtles have assembled their allies - which shockingly includes theShredder and the Foot Clan- so , too , has the Rat King . Under this god of chaos are his ‘ Trio of Terror ’ , which includes General Krang , Baxter Stockman , and Madame Null .

Krang is Finally Dead in TMNT Continuity After Decades of Villainy
InTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles : The Armageddon Game#7 by Tom Waltz and Vincenzo Federici , Krang decides that he no longer care about require the Utroms to take over Planet Earth , and that he ’d rather simply practice the Technodrome to decimate the world and then escape through an interdimensional portal . However , once a portal opens before Krang activates the auto , he realizes that the Ninja Turtles and their Neutrino allies were ready for Krang ’s blast , and they set up a counterstrike against him .
Right there on the topographic point , the leader of the Neutrinos , King Zenter , declares Krang shamed of state of war crimes cross across multiple universe , and he sentences him to death . Zenter then shoots Krang right between his oculus , and the mech - suit Krang was wear ( which is actually Metalhead ) state that Krang ’s life function are at zero , confirming that he is , in fact , truly bushed .
This is n’t the first timeTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtlesfans thought Krang was dead , but this seems to be the time that it will actually adhere . The 1990s rooter favourite baddie has been around long enough that there have been multiple false starts . InTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles#75 , Krang is try in court on Planet Neutrino for his previous war crimes , and before he was sentenced , the mutanimal Leatherhead eat him right there in the courtroom . It was fair to think that was it for Krang , but he ended up coming back ( and in a unfeignedly repulsive way , at that ) .
Then , more recently , Krang was thought dead inTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles : The Armageddon Game#5 when he was shot by a traitorous Utrom , Kleve . While these events admittedly do n’t seem like great indicant that Krang is pass for good , there are other factors to think as well that make it a flake easier to count . Firstly , The Armageddon Gameis something that IDW Publishing’sTMNThas been building towards sinceTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles#36 ( at least ) , and it will mark a raw commencement for Turtles after it ’s complete – something the Turtles themselves have comment on throughout the event . With that Modern beginning inevitably comes saying goodbye to some ofTMNT ’s more Hellenic characters , and that doubtless ( finally ) include General Krang .
Krang ’s lasting death is a tremendously important here and now for theTMNTseries , but most notably for ‘ 90s kids . Unlike the Turtles , Shredder , and the Foot Clan , Krang was inaugurate in the ‘ 90s cartoon rather than the comics , which now made him synonymous with perhaps the most iconic looping ofTMNTto date . His more recent amusing book depiction was way more brutal and mean - gritty , to be indisputable , but many fan will assuredly remember Krang lovingly as the colorful , zany , and uproariously grossTMNTvillain he originally was . While he may not be missed in - continuity , Krang ’s destruction will undoubtedly will a live on St. Mark on theTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtlesfranchise , particularly for ‘ ninety kids everywhere .
