So they bring beeback to life just to kill them again with the rest of the universe? Neat.

Though I think this will lead up to a similar place as cybertron (the animated series) I. E. Unicron becomes a massive black hole in whatever continuity follows this reset. Allowing the possibility that Unicron may return for another event

It looks like after this UNICRON series, the Have IDWverse ends and begins anew. A good point to jump off.

We are wrapping up current IDW continuities this year, Unicron is coming to devour everybody. The intention is to continue after that, whatever comes next. Towards end of year we should know more, but we will collaborate on more stories.



Now I feel as if I've wasted my time with the series. :-(

Not if you’ve enjoyed the ride. My favorite comic Invincible ended this week. 15 years, was that a waste? When Chew ended last year did that too feel like years wasted? Hell no! If you enjoy something and it ends it’s never a waste.

That’s like saying you feel like you wasted your childhood after watching all of G1 as a kid becuase rebirth was the finale.

I'm currently collecting a Transformers part work, exploring the history of all Transformers comics. The newest ones this week were Dark Cybertron (part 2) and All Hail Optimus Prime.

Bearing in mind I tapped out of IDWverse with Death of Optimus Prime yet, if these stories are indication of what IDWverse has become... Unicron should devour it

I don't feel time was wasted because it's ending, I feel time was wasted because I'm willing to bet Hasbro is ending it so the IDW comics can be turned into a toy commercial first, and a story a distant second.

It's pretty random how they pair the volumes. Dark Cybertron was Vol.60, All Hail Optimus Vol. 71. It is clear that a lot happened in the interim.

Eh, I'm not sure how I feel about this. IDW got the transformers universe into a really interesting place. I don't want to have to spend another decade going through the war all over again, reintroducing each character and scrapping all the current story directions instead of fixing the ones that don't work as of now. Thee war ending was probably the best thing to happen to transformers.

Also, I thought it was odd that the TAAO annual would put Windblade in charge with significant changes to Cybertron while the rest of the titles ignore what happened and play catch up in between. Now I know why, because they planned to flush everything down the toilet anyway, so who cares what happens in the nebulous future if the universe is going to explode before that happens? Ugh.

Reminds me of when the -Ations ended and AHM took over. Shattering everything interesting that Furman was building, for Sunbow 2.0. All the more disappointing was that AHM was successful, indicating to Hasbro and IDW, Sunbow was all people actually wanted from Transformers.

IDWverse does need a reboot now though. It's become too convoluted and bloated. It started with the Primacy trilogy and the pointless retcons and later by shoehorning too many other properties into Transformers.

ricemazter wrote:The war ending was probably the best thing to happen to transformers.


Not in IDW, as the war never really took off in this continuity. Furman gave highlights, some tertiary battlegrounds such as Earth in Infiltration. Then AHM "ended" the Sunbow War and now we are at "people in robot suits".

I don't see how you can say the war never took off as it did happen, and is pointed out every so often, or do you mean because IDW haven't displayed it much? Still one thing we have to be clear on is that after the reset hits, the franchises will still be together but I'm hoping they'll roll in together a lot more organically this time. After all gi joe and tfs have a long history together and technically the generation 2 comic series launched out of a gi joe series, as megatron rebuilt himself with Cobra tech he bartered for from Cobra Commander.

Though IDW if you're listening please let some other series serve as a launch pad for new stuff this time round, give the Transformers a break.

Yeah, the War has been a case of "Tell, don't show" in IDW. The closest it came to showing The War was Megatron: Origin and Stormbringer. After Spotlight Kup and Wheelie, implication of The War seemed to be the last way it would be mentioned as an ongoing conflict.

They have characters such as Thundercracker decrying all the killing and destruction they have witnessed, yet we haven't be shown any of that.

We had,I think, plenty of highlights from the war itself. Unlike the Sunbow cartoon, the IDW war was a massive galaxy spanning affair taking place on multiple fronts. Last Stand of the Wreckers was a good example of the war itself, and we saw it again multiple times throughout MTMTE, like in the first couple Scavengers issues and when Sunder got loose, not to mention the various spotlights. I think the war was always something best left implied and kept to singular stories as it was never very interesting. The fallout and implications of the war were, however and all we needed were snippets. I think any ongoing series that seriously used the war as a focus would get very boring very quickly, which is why the spotlights worked so well.

Also, with the specifics of the war being kept vague, any writer could come in and do a prequel story at any point and make an interesting or crazy setting like in ROM vs Transformers. Heck, if we did want to go back to the war, we wouldn't even need a reboot. There's 4 million years of untold stories just waiting for someone to take a crack at.

Also the destruction that upset Thundercracker so much was in all hail megatron as he saw the campaign against the humans. That's actually something of want to survive in the reboot, screenwriter Thundercracker and his dog buster...I love it whenever he's used.

I think you might be onto something. Why suddenly dump Megatron away like that? There’s probably a lot in the planning of this, as truncated as it is probably going to be.

What if Lost Light? Is that just going to fade out on it’s own? Seems like there’s some universe shattering stuff coming up there too.

Well I think this is all just hype. IDW isn’t losing the rights or anything. They said the comics will come after this event. The entire “Unicron is coming to destroy everything” is just hype. He’s not going to eat earth, he’s not gonna eat Cybertron. The universe is not getting reset. Comics do this all the time. Unicron will be defeated and we wil be entering into phase 4(?) of the IDWverse.

Lost light? I don’t know. I can’t even imagine but I don’t think that series is really ending but maybe it is. We got this Scavengers story ending and it’s supposedly their final story and then we got this story about Rodimus and crew “Dying” so I means that would leave around 7-8 issues to get the crew to Cyberutopia and conclude...maybe that’s enough I don’t know.

Even IF lost light ends let’s all be grown ups for a moment and look at the real picture. It’s james Roberts. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, he is this generations Simon Furman. He will always have a place writing transformers fiction. Just like Simon did for the span of 25 years if James wants to continue and he more than likely will if offered. Just like how John has cemented himself as one of the best writers too. Unless these guys don’t want to continue doing it or IDW doesn’t want them which I find hard to believe considering how their relationships with the company are they won’t be going anywhere. John may not be editor anymore but let’s not kid ourselves he’s still running this whole universe for transformers,

While I don’t want a new start but let’s not deny that over 13 years so far we’ve gotten way more good stories than bad and it’s the longest running continuity that transformers has ever had. It’s been a helluva run

Over 300issue I think. That’s damn good for company like IDW

The comics are all selling far below what TAAO was selling when it got cancelled. So ending it all and then rebooting makes sense from that standpoint for sure. Especially since the first issues of First Strike outsold any Transformers comic that month. Events comics are selling. The regulate comics are not.

I agree with most of what you said apart from Barber being one of the best writers.

I can't stand the stuff he's done. I hate Thundercracker's screenwriting nonsense, his dog and the mess he made of Prowl. To say nothing of going back to Earth and focussing far too much on the humans.

To me, Barber is the Michael Bay of the comics.

Mairghead, James, Nick and Simon are great writers though.

I'm pretty sure the interview person just mis-used the word continuity. About 90% sure. Like how they ended 'continuity' with Death of Optimus Prime and Revolution.

We are wrapping up current IDW continuities this year, Unicron is coming to devour everybody. The intention is to continue after that, whatever comes next. Towards end of year we should know more, but we will collaborate on more stories.


I took this as: Unicron is coming to devour stuff, everybody has to fix the problem. And then there will be the aftermath, where things start happening again.
