AUTOBOTS, ROLL OUT! SKYBOUND ANNOUNCES LINEUP OF AUTOBOTS TEAM IN DANIEL WARREN JOHNSON’S TRANSFORMERS #1

The Hugely Anticipated New Series Launches This October

LOS ANGELES 06/23/2023 — Today Skybound, in partnership with toy and game company Hasbro, announced the full lineup of Autobots team members that will appear in writer/artist powerhouse Daniel Warren Johnson’s Transformers, launching with issue #1 October 4, 2023.

Teasers of each character appeared on Skybound social channels this week, showcasing the all-star team of Optimus Prime, Ratchet, Cliffjumper, Arcee, and Wheeljack. Fans should stay tuned to Skybound social channels next week, as the Decepticon team will be unveiled daily.

In the recent surprise heard ‘round the world, Robert Kirkman and Lorenzo De Felici’s Void Rivals #1 launched the all-new shared “Energon Universe” with the surprise first appearance of iconic Transformers character Jetfire. The stealth launch introduced the historic new partnership between Hasbro and Skybound, with Transformers and G.I. Joe comics finding a new home with the publisher.

Transformers #1 (Lunar Code 0623IM805) begins an all-new era for the iconic Robots in Disguise from Daniel Warren Johnson (Extremity, Do a Powerbomb, DC’s Wonder Woman: Dead Earth) and colorist Mike Spicer (Stillwater, Murder Falcon). Optimus Prime was supposed to have led the Autobots to victory. Instead, the fate of Cybertron is unknown, and his allies have crash-landed far from home, alongside their enemies—the Decepticons. As these titanic forces renew their war on Earth, one thing is immediately clear: the planet will never be the same. New alliances are struck. Battle lines are redrawn. And humanity’s only hope for survival is Optimus Prime.

Transformers #1 (Lunar Code 0623IM805| $4.99) will be available at comic book shops and digital platforms including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, comiXology, and Google Play on Wednesday, October 4, 2023.

Great news, I'm looking forward to it.

I was hoping they might put some lesser used characters front and center, instead of the same old crew, but at least Bumblebee is not in the starting lineup. Getting tired of him.

Curious about the Cons. Probably Megatron, Shockwave, Starscream, Soundwave and 1 more random well-known character.

It's still weird to see Ratchet with a white helmet and black crest instead of a red helmet and white crest in a comic.

Agreed. Conjures up memories of Dreamwave; when I saw Ratchet in Sunbow colors on a printed page, I had a bad feeling that someone at the helm just didn't get it. Show-accuracy is fine for the rest of the original Ark crew, but Ratchet and Prowl were iconic because of their Marvel characterization. There were much bigger problems in the first DW series, but that detail gave me a sense that this new TF Universe was going to crash and burn before its time, and that's not just hindsight bias.

Here though, on the cover of a restart comic that just has to be different enough from IDW instead of bringing all of G1 back from the dead in an appeal to old fans who'd considered it to have been so for over a decade...could work. We'll see.

Cannot express how shocked I am that Bee isn’t there! It really does seem like at the last second they switched Bee to Cliff. Probably no coincidence that the lineup is similar to the main team from ROTB.

That all being said, I am so excited. The lack of TF comics lately has really felt like a hole in my life.

As long as they don't keep it slave to the G1 cartoon, or wings universe or whatever asinine thing they're calling it. Let it be its own thing, like IDW was.

Regardless, as a comic book fan, I'm really looking forward to it, especially after the Brian Ruckley schiffshow we got.

So the initial Con line up is Screamer, Skywarp, Soundwave with Rumble and Laserbeak. Interesting. I'm still looking forward to it, the art looks great. Hopefully the stories will live up to it.

1 thing I don't like is the writer proclaiming "Optimus Prime the savior of Earth." That part is the same old. Personally I would really love it if finally Ultra Magnus got to be the main character of an entire series. He's like Optimus, except more interesting. G1 Prime is basically a 2-note tune. Getting boring after 40 years.

I went to the Skybound Energon Universe panel on Saturday afternoon. I was already in the tank for the line of books but it was great to see Joshua Williamson, Daniel Warren Johnson, Sean Mankiewicz, and Robert Kirkman talk about the comics.

And they gave away a panel exclusive Transformers ashcan! I love Mike Spicer's coloring but they really could sell black & white versions of DWJ's comic and I'd buy it.

I suppose they have to focus on a core group to avoid being over-complex. However, they shouldn't forget the wider TF population.

Maybe they could kill off Cliffjumper every month only to have him resurrected by magic by the next month?!

'Oh my God, they killed Cliffy!' as South Park would have it. :-D

This issue massively expanded the universe for Transformers. They not only introduced the Quintesson, but they established that The Age of Wrath happened. Skuxxoid also name dropped Slizardo and reintroduced Nebulons while establishing that the Hive exist. I'm looking forward to seeing the home planets of our characters coming up.
The art was great, I'm really getting invested in the characters and the amount of Transformers love we're getting has me positively giddy. I love what they're doing with Skuxxoid, hopefully he can get a miniseries at some point. Overall I think this universe is exactly what Transformers needs right now and its nice to have a comic I can look forward to every month again.
Lastly, there was a three page preview for Daniel Warren Johnson's book and man, this might be the best Transformers has ever looked in comic form. The pages had me floored.

The first one I tracked down to Things From Another World Exclusive by Fred (Frederic Pham Chuong).

The second is art by Santa Fung, but I haven't found who the original seller is yet (neither Ebay listing is by them).

Any ideas on where to get the second one and/or has anyone spotted any other exclusives yet?

Just wondering if anyone has found any exclusives yet for Transformers #1.

So far I've found two confirmed (Stadium Comics and TFAW) and two potentially teased on Facebook (Big Time Collectibles (wouldn't ship until November at the earliest, though) and Singapore based Comic Grail Vault).

In the past I always waited to pick up the IDW incentives and exclusives, but this time around I think I'm going to try and get them all at launch if I can.

So far I've found four different exclusive covers for #1. Two are currently live, Stadium Comics and Things From Another World. One is going live today (August 31st) for the Singapore based store Comic Grail Vault. And one is going live next Friday (September 8th) (two days earlier if you sign for their massively overpriced "subscription" service) from Big Time Collectibles.

Has anyone spotted any more exclusives? Usually I waited on any IDW exclusives, but given how hyped people are for this series, I'm being more proactive about getting them upfront, rather than waiting and trying to get them cheaper.

Hopefully this post will be approved, it's been almost a week since I first tried posting. I know, as a new member my posts need to be reviewed, but I've received no feedback, so I don't know if my posts are being rejected or have just yet to be approved.

KRS Comics has two (one of which goes live in about half an hour), Transmissions podcast has one, and there are many more still to be revealed. I wish you good luck, they're going full 1990s (maybe worse) with the amount of variant covers for the first issue.

Skybound has provided us with a four page preview of their upcoming Transformers #1, which hits comic shops next month. This preview is mostly comprised of the same preview pages that were printed in the back of Void Rivals #3. They've also supplied us with a handy list of variant covers and images of those, but be forewarned this list does not encompass the plethora of retailer exclusive cover options that are sure to be available. You can check out the accompanying press release and the comic pages themselves below.

YOUR FIRST LOOK AT DANIEL WARREN JOHNSON’S TRANSFORMERS #1
The Next Series in the Energon Universe Launches This October


LOS ANGELES 08/30/2023 — Today Skybound, in collaboration with leading toy and game company Hasbro, revealed an impressive lineup of variant covers and a first look at interior pages of Daniel Warren Johnson’s hugely anticipated Transformers #1.

Transformers #1 begins an all-new era for the iconic Transformers franchise from Daniel Warren Johnson (Extremity, Do a Powerbomb, DC’s Wonder Woman: Dead Earth) and colorist Mike Spicer (Stillwater, Murder Falcon). Optimus Prime was supposed to have led the Autobots to victory. Instead, the fate of Cybertron is unknown, and his allies have crash-landed far from home, alongside their enemies—the Decepticons. As these titanic forces renew their war on Earth, one thing is immediately clear: the planet will never be the same. New alliances are struck. Battle lines are redrawn. Humanity’s only hope for survival is Optimus Prime.

The recently announced rosters of Autobots and Decepticons headlining the first story arc of the all-new Transformers series include Autobots Optimus Prime, Ratchet, Cliffjumper, Arcee, and Wheeljack, and Decepticons Starscream, Rumble, Skywarp, Laserbeak, and Soundwave.

In addition to the already-iconic main cover by Daniel Warren Johnson and Mike Spicer, the stacked list of variant covers for Transformers #1 includes Autobot and Decepticon covers by Johnson and Spicer, a cover by iconic artist Ryan Ottley (Invincible), a 1:10 incentive variant that kicks off a connecting cover series by Orlando Arocena (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers), a 1:25 incentive variant by Cliff Chiang Paper Girls), a 1:50 incentive variant by Francis Manapul (The Flash), a 1:100 incentive variant by Ian Bertram (Little Bird), and finally, an open-to-order blank sketch cover.

The Energon Universe officially began in June 2023 with the surprise first appearance of iconic Transformers character Jetfire in Void Rivals #1, introducing the historic new collaboration between Hasbro and Skybound, with Transformers and G.I. Joe comics finding a new home with the publisher. The Energon Universe expands in December with Duke #1, a limited series from Joshua Williamson (DC’s Superman, Dark Ride), Tom Reilly (The Thing) and Jordie Bellaire (W0rldtr33). This will be followed by the launch of Cobra Commander #1 in January 2024, from Joshua Williamson, Andrea Milana (Impact Winter: Rook) and Annalisa Leoni (Oblivion Song).

I was happy Skybound taking over TF from IDW, excited by Daniel Warren Johnson handling the comics. But this early preview is kind of disappointing.

The 4-page insides are just not... exciting? The covers featuring Starscream, however, intrigue.

The art style is more suited for organics than bots. Not that I expected anything else - it IS Daniel Warren Johnson's signature - and the layout is fantastic (except the physically illogical fall into the exhaust ports and reveal the rear of the Ark part... like, HOW!?). Johnson's artwork always reminded me of the French comic books I read back in my youth - Tintin, Asterix and the likes when I grew up in Montreal. Guest I'm still getting used to it for TF but it's not hard to get past this. For me that's better than the Marvel TF style that doesn't age well... even back in the late 80's... so I'm not complaining.

I like the covers for the most part, even if I'm getting Bayverse psycho Prime vibes. As for the actual art, it's not impressive. This is my first experience with Daniel Warren Johnson's style, and he did not make a good impression. It's not terrible, but the story had better be top notch elsewise I don't think I'll stay with it.

Its not bad, but not enough seen yet to say good either. For the first time in a long time, I can go into a new Tranformers comic with an open mind and that what I'm going to try and do. Those covers are great though. Its just gonna to be hard to gets use to not seeing Burcham, Milne, Roche, etc. art and even Malkova on the 2.0 stuff.

Launching a book with six figures is an accomplishment, but it's only a marketing one. The trick will be sustaining that level of interest. Still, it's a promising beginning.
