Todd was a city worker, first appearing in the 2003 TV series episode "Outbreak". Todd and his buddy Carl were chatting about mysterious sightings within the sewers. Later he was working in the sewers where he found a wire split in half, he called for his comrade to bring a splicing kit, that was when attacked by a silhouette of a cockroach. Later when the Turtles were escaping other figures in the sewers they found a trio of mutated human sized cockroaches, among them was Todd who was revealed to be fused with a mutant cockroach. In a fight with the turtles, Todd had stung Don and infected him with the Outbreak mutagen. Todd scared, escaping to parts unknown, that was until he was caught by Baxter Stockman and EPF units to Area 51 for further study in Agent Bishop's lab to counteract the outbreak virus. Todd's machinations against the turtles did not go unpunished, as Don later went through two transformational stages and forced the Turtles and Bishop to align together to find a cure all outbreak mutants. After Leatherhead (using and advancing Baxter Stockman's research) found a cure, Todd was transformed back into a human.
