goodbye, my brothers... is a series of art pieces by the artist DeadPea. The pieces feature the characters of Donatello, Raphael, Michelangelo and Leonardo from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Each piece imagines a scenario where they are the only remaining brother left alive, and showcases their grief. These pieces received a great deal of attention from fans and the media, and three of the pieces, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Leonardo, were daily deviations on Deviantart in 2012 and 2013. In 2020 the Michelangelo piece garnered further attention after the release of The Last Ronin comic series.
