Thirteen years later Saki was challenged by the Ninja Turtles, who were the result of an accident exposing four ordinary turtles to radioactive waste. They were trained by Yoshi's pet rat Splinter, who had also been mutated by the same substance, to avenge his former master. After a lengthy rooftop battle where Saki seemed to be winning, [[Leonardo (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)|Leonardo]] managed to plunge his sword through Saki's torso. Defeated, he was offered the opportunity to commit [[seppuku]] (ritual suicide), but Shredder refused and detonated a [[thermite]] grenade, in an attempt to take their lives alongside his own. But at the last second, [[Donatello (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)|Donatello]] used his [[Bō|bo]] to knock Shredder off the building to his death.
However, it was not yet the end of the Shredder. He returned on Christmas Eve seemingly resurrected with an army of Foot Ninjas severely beating Leonardo and burning down the apartment of the turtles' ally [[April O'Neil]], forcing them to go into hiding outside the city.
A year later, in the story "Return to New York", the Turtles returned to settle the score with the Shredder. Leonardo faced off against Oroku Saki alone, during which Saki revealed he was brought back to life by a technique using worms feeding on his remains and recreating his cells to reform his body. The same technique was also used to create the [[Shredder Clones]]. In the battle, Leonardo [[decapitate]]s the villain, finally killing him, and the four turtles burn his body at the [[Hudson River]]. ====''Tales of the TMNT''====
In the second volume of the anthology series ''[[Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'' story "Worms of Madness" it is shown that a few weeks after the events of their final battle the Shredder had yet another resurrection of sorts when a Foot
The "Shredder-Shark" returned once more kidnapping [[Casey Jones (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)|Casey Jones]]'s adopted daughter Shadow to lure the Turtles into a trap. With the Turtles away, it was up to Casey and Splinter to defeat it and rescue Shadow, finally killing the creature.

In feudal Japan, Oroku Saki was a high-ranking member of the Foot Clan along with Hamato Yoshi. While Yoshi focused on his family, Saki surpassed him and was promoted to Jonin (leader) of the Foot.<ref>{{Cite comic | Writer= Erik Burnham | artist= Charles Paul Wilson III | colorist= Jay Fotos | Title = Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles | Volume = Micro-Series | Issue = 5 | Date = 20 June 2012 | Publisher = IDW Publishing}}</ref> After an argument on his style of leadership, Saki sent ninja to murder Yoshi's wife, Tang Shen, and later Yoshi and his four sons.

Shredder first appears in Micro-series #1 and in full costume on the final page of issue #9. Dan Duncan first designed Shredder with input from Mateus Santolouco and Kevin Eastman; originally wanting to depict a "beefy...monster" he decided to simplify the design and slimmed down the character based on the original Mirage design.<ref>{{Cite comic | Story =Letters page | Title = Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles | Volume = 1 | Issue = 10 | Date = 30 May 2012 | Publisher = IDW Publishing}}</ref>
Seeking control in his forthcoming battle for power, Shredder offers Splinter a place in his army but Splinter refuses, revealing himself to be a reincarnated Hamato Yoshi.<ref>{{Cite comic | Writer= Kevin Eastman & Tom Waltz | artist= Dan Duncan | colorist= Ronda Pattison | Title = Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles | Volume = 1 | Issue = 10 | Date = 30 May 2012 | Publisher = IDW Publishing}}</ref> Saki then reveals his own identity and attacks Splinter, almost killing him when the Turtles arrive to rescue their father.<ref>{{Cite comic | Writer= Kevin Eastman & Tom Waltz | artist= Dan Duncan | colorist= Ronda Pattison | Title = Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles | Volume = 1 | Issue = 12 | Date = 25 July 2012

After the Turtles rescue Leonardo, Shredder calls a meeting with Krang and proposes an alliance in exchange for Utrom technologies, which Krang rejects. A short battle results in retreat on both sides and the revelation that Shredder had stolen some Utrom resources from Krang's compound to begin creating a mutant army (in the form of Bebop, Rocksteady, Koya and Bludgeon).<ref name="ReferenceA"/>
In Issue #50, Shredder faced Splinter and the turtles in a final battle which he lost and briefly admitted his faults and also making Karai the new head of the Foot Clan in the event of his death. Splinter then retaliated by slashing deep into the back of his head with his sword, killing Shredder instantly.
After his death, Shredder's body is kept in a crypt that is guarded by Jennika who was assigned by Hamato Yoshi in order to learn humility. Shredder's tomb is eventually desecrated by the witch Kitsune who plans to revive Oroku Saki in order to restore order to the Foot Clan but Splinter knew this and keeps the skull to foil her attempts.
Shredder will appear in the upcoming miniseries ''Shredder in Hell''. In the mini-series, Shredder is in the afterlife and descends into the underworld trying to find the truth of his own soul meanwhile Kitsune uses his corpse to summon her father as his host. Shredder also fought his past life Takeshi Tasuo in his inner conflict until Splinter/Hamato Yoshi later shows up to help him against the forces of Hell.
At the time when Mutant Town was established when Old Hob detonated a mutagen bomb the day when Baxter Stockman became the [[Mayor of New York City]], Oroku Saki resurfaces and saves April from some mutant eels that were offspring of the Slithery.<ref>''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'' #118.

Saki later appears in Old Hob's lair where Old Hob and Man Ray don't recognize him. He frees the weasel children and disappears when he sees Raphael approaching.<ref>''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'' #120. IDW Publishing.</ref>
As Raphael takes the time to reminice about Splinter, Saki watches him from afar.<ref>''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'' #124. IDW Publishing.</ref>
