Comic Book Resources Interview With Barber & Roberts: Creating A Transformers World

The Comic Book Resources website (CBR) has posted an in depth interview with two of IDW's Transformers series writers and asked them what's next for our heroes and villains in print.

Some highlights:

"Looking beyond the Autobots and Decepticons was something I always intended to do, and will continue doing," Roberts said. "I think digging deeper into Cybertronian society adds color and spice to the larger TF universe, and encourages you to reappraise the Autobots and Decepticons. That's happening across in 'Robots in Disguise,' too, with the arrival of the neutrals, or non-affiliated Cybertronians. For years, the Cybertronian race seemed to be comprised solely of Autobots and Decepticons, but of course those are just rival military factions; there's a lot of mileage in exploring the make-up of the rest of the population.


"How about: AUGUST IS DINOBOT MONTH! The Dinobots are back with a vengeance! This goes across all three Transformers comics: 'Robots in Disguise,' 'More Than Meets the Eye,' and 'Regeneration One,'"


"We haven't seen the Dinobots since 'Maximum Dinobots' and I've been itching to get to write them -- and Andrew's been wanting to draw them -- so we're pretty excited."

Cannot be any happier with these two amazing writers tackling these books. I'm really looking forward to more about the DJD and seeing Turmoil's appearance.

I've been reading MTMTE and RID, and while MTMTE never ceases to amaze me, RID could be better. RID's art is top notch though. Griffith and Perez do an INCREDIBLE job with art and color. I do think that RID can be better though. Still, both comics are great! :BOT:
