IDW Publishing[edit]
Jammerhead ("Jammer" in IDW) and the Street Phantoms were first adapted in media outside of the 2003 animated series in the pages of In the IDW run of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle comics[2]. Instead of appearing as a villain in the far-flung future, the IDW's Jammer is portrayed as contemporaneous to the turtles' base timeline. Though existing 100 years earlier than the original version of the character, Jammer retains many of his futuristic technology and capabilities - most notably the phantom cloak which allows him to phase through matter. Jammer's Phantoms in the IDW Universe operate as an independent street gang, but they contract to other prominent villains in the story to achieve special missions. Essentially, Jammer leads a gang of high-tech mercenaries for hire.
Personality[edit]
Jammerhead has a chaotic and sociopathic thrill-seeking personality. He takes great pleasure in destruction and in the suffering of others. To him violence is playful mischief. Aside from seeking thrills, his actions are largely motivated by the pursuit of personal gain.
