Last night comic book writer Brian Michael Bendis posted an image that can only be described epic, a piece of concept art by Phil Jimenez depicting a proposed JLA/Transformers crossover! CBR went on explore the unused concept in a little more detail, the full article can be found here.

Just to be clear, this is not happening, it's just conceptual.

“Oh, what an epic that would have been,” Jimenez wrote last night on Twitter, saying to one follower, “You missed out on Wonder Woman’s invisible jet becoming a very cool Transformer.” You can get a peek of that in the image above, along with an enormous Bat-former and, perhaps best of all, Optimus Prime as a Green Lantern. (He added this morning, “Giving credit where credit is due: the idea for Optimus Prime as a GL was none other than [IDW Publishing Editor-in-Chief Chris Ryall's].”

Now...unless kryptonite played a key role in this story, couldnt Superman just demolish our belowved robots in disguise...would be cool if they somehow derived some sort of energon type fuel from kryptonite that would make superman's power virtually useless when in proximity...but then we have Shazam, Wonder Woman, and other metahumans...the possibilities could be endless...to bad its "not" happening (I say "not" because you never know 1, 5, 10 years from now a publisher may decide to)...Wonder-twins vs Rumble & Frenzy...Krypto the dog vs Ravage...Pure unfiltered awesomesauce!!! :michaelbay: :michaelbay: :michaelbay:

Due to his rather unique birth, Grimlock has a slow but endearing speech pattern, which can easily make you forget he's Godzilla with style. And weapons.

Flash defending Central City from Insecticons looks cool, but concept art should show him racing Blurr.

And while Batmech looks like an original design, is Wonder Woman's jet turning into Invisible-Swoop? Or maybe he's Stealth from that Condor Verlag text story where he and Bumblebee fly to Egypt to see if the pyramids were built by Optimus Prime!

And the Seacons attacking Atlantis would be so awesome (shame they didn't exist in time for Alantis: Arise!); is Aquaman holding the head of someone recognizable, or just a generic?

And is that Primus's face in the second panel?

Yeah, this could've been WAY better than that Avengers crossover. I wonder if this deal went south around the time Animated was cancelled and relations soured between Hasbro and Cartoon Network/Time Warner.

the artwork looks good, lovin the submarauder. (is arcee flying or webslingin?) however, DC is quite boring in my humble opinion with the possible exception of Batman. even he is pretty boring though, unless jim lee is drawin Ivy or whoever.
I didnt collect the avengers one either. Or infestation. For that matter, I always saw spider-man/gears as pretty corny too.
I prefer my TFs to do their thing in their own universe.
A Joe crossover now and then is ok but I think that was a different continuity (serpent-OR, Bludgeon an Pythona etc).
Im picky with TF comics. Ill be skipping the FOC tpb if released unless someone can prove it goes with IDWs main continuity.
