• The Nova Posse is a team of space adventurers that hail from Dimension X. Their commander is Luna Azul, and the other five members are Exeen, Grotto, Rave, Trip, and Zebulon. They take care of Qark after Sarnath's fate is left unknown in issue #50.Tattoo is a Japanese sumo wrestler who obtained his name for having multitudes of tattoos. He asked Splinter for a favor and requested that the TMNT rescue his Chihuahua "Inky" from a group of Yakuza who wanted him to throw his next fight for gambling purposes.Al Falqa is talking eagle co-created by Mirage Studio's artist Jim Lawson that the Turtles encounter in Saudi Arabia.Katmandu is a four-armed tiger-like creature clad in ancient East Indian Armour. The Turtles encountered him in the People's Republic of China. Katmandu was created by Ryan Brown, a Mirage artist.Null is a businessman wearing a purple leisure suit who was ultimately responsible for the death of the Mighty Mutanimals when he contracted a group of cyborgs to kill them and one of the main villains of the series. The death was highly controversial and somewhat gory, as a spread of machine-gun bullets tore the group down. He was also responsible for a three-part story arc in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles storyline including the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: Death, Famine, War, and Pestilence. Null himself seemed to be somehow the leader of the group, giving orders to Death, who in turn controlled the other Horsemen like puppets. Null seemed to be somehow linked to Hell. Originally the character had two small horns projecting from his forehead, and with every new deed of evil he committed he grew more demonic-looking. Eventually he grew larger horns, a demon-like tail, and wings like a bat.Death, Famine, War, Pestilence are the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.Armaggon, is an evil, time-traveling, talking shark who set the scale for the "Future Turtles" timeline in which the TMNT travel to the future and meet their future selves, wherein Splinter has died, and Ninjara has left Raphael, who is missing an eye.Monsterex is the result of Krang trying fire a mutation ray at the Turtles and ends up hitting their television that was showing a horror movie that had a vampire that might be Count Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, a werewolf that might be the Wolf Man, and a gill-man trying to rescue the Bride of Frankenstein from an unnamed mad scientist. The television was destroyed and a two-headed composite monster named Monsterex was born out of thin air. It has the left head of Frankenstein's monster, the fangs, left torso, and cape of a vampire, the right head, right torso, left hand, pants, and right leg of a werewolf, the head fins, right hand, and left foot of a Gill-man, and bandages.Verminator X, also known as "Manx", is half-cat, half-machine, as well as being Donatello's apprentice. He is only apparent in the future timelines, and eventually has a catharsis in a controversial book in which Raphael is willing to kill him for the greater good, resulting in destroying the machine that had taken over and poisoned Verminator X's mind. At the end of this arc, Verminator X survives and becomes good once again.Scumbug, is an exterminator called in to spray the Shredder's lair and is turned into a giant cockroach.Wyrm is a mutated monster planarian worm that fought Scumbug.May East, created by Stanley Wiater and Ryan Brown, is an ancient evil sorceress from whom April O'Neil is descended.Chameleon is a mercenary spy working for the highest bidder. He first appears in issue #9 as a well-dressed agent with a characteristic lazy eye, having stolen top secret weapons plans from the United Nations. Shredder covets these plans for himself, and sends Bebop and Rocksteady to capture Chameleon and retrieve the plans. Hiding from the authorities in the sewers, Chameleon finds himself in the middle of a battle between the two and the Turtles, and is captured after hiding the weapons plans in the sewer wall. He is then mutated into a human-sized chameleon by Shredder after divulging the whereabouts of the plans. Using his newfound powers of camouflage and light radiance, Chameleon outsmarts Shredder, Bebop, and Rocksteady, and retrieves the plans. He then covertly returns them to the U.N., deciding that some things are just not worth profiting over. Chameleon encounters the Turtles later on in issue #51, hoping in vain to reverse his mutation.
