MAJOR Hollywood blockbuster licenses are coming together in a crazy other-worlds crossover series. THAT is what's a first for the comics industry. This isn't Star Trek versus Ghostbusters. This isn't GiJoe versus Star Trek (though that sounds really cool). This is Transformers, Star Trek, GiJoe, and Ghostbusters all rolled up into one crazy Zombieland story and how each property deals with some crazy insane crisis like this.

It appears opinions have changed somewhat.

The first bookend issue takes place in the "Zombies vs. Robots" world, a universe created by IDW Chief Creative Officer Chris Ryall and artist Ashley Wood. Waltz confirmed that the zombies seen in "Infestation" would be of the sorts seen in "ZVR," including infected robots.
In addition to "Zombies vs. Robots," characters from early IDW series "CVO: Covert Vampiric Operations" will also play a major role in "Infestation," Waltz told CBR.

Yeah, other comic book companies have done that before. Yeah, as far as we can see, zombies seem like a minor threat to Transformers. But, really, whats wrong with just having a little fun like this? It'll probably end up as it's own canon/universe, so whats the harm? Transformers comics are not going to be ruined FOREVER because of this.

Seriously, IDW? It's bad enough you let All Hail Megatron exist? It's bad enough you let Costa continue to pollute the ongoing with his "writing" and "plot"? It's bad enough you take his dumbest idea ever (killing Ironhide), build a story around it, then provide no answer as to why you bothered in the first place? Now you've gotta take quite possibly your worst idea ever (and that includes the previously mentioned things, so no mean feat there), and then make it canon?!
...
That's it. I'm officially done with IDW.
