Raphael (nicknamed Raph) is one of the four titular main protagonists of the IDW reboot of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics. He is the second oldest of the Turtles, known for his hot temper but caring nature. Raph became best friends with Casey Jones after saving him from his abusive father.

He is a reincarnation of one of Hamato Yoshi's son who were murdered by Oroku Saki AKA the Shredder reborn into a small garden turtle. He and his brothers were mutated by the mutagen after being doused by a chemical cocktail.

Casey Jones[]

Raphael met Casey Jones when he saw the young man being abused by his father. Because of a promise he made his mother, Casey couldn't hit his dad back. However, Raph made no such promise and immediately defended Casey from Mr. Jones. Quickly becoming friends, Raph introduced Casey to his family: his adoptive father Splinter and brothers Leo, Donnie and Mikey. The family accepts Casey as one of their own.

April O'Neil[]

before Raph and the Turtles were mutated by the mutagen, a young scientist April O'Neil grew attached to the five experiments. She named them all after her favorite artists from her history class. After realizing what the labs were doing to the Turtles and Splinter, she helped them escape. Even though she didn't know it, Splinter never forgot this encounter after he saved her him two Ninjas breaking into the science lab.

April reunited with Raph and the Turtles many years later, having recognized their names. As time went on, she acted as a close friend, ally and sisterly figure for the turtles.
