We're reminded that next weekend - 5-6 November - is time for Shanghai Comic Con, and Tranformers artist Andrew Griffith, from IDW's The Transformers and multiple more, will be attending as a guest. Check out more info here and below!
Andrew Griffith is a freelance comic book artist, designer and illustrator currently working on Transformers comics for IDW Publishing.
After he did well enough to arrive on IDW’s radar, he was brought on as an inker and fill-in artist on prequel comics for the film “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,” and the critically acclaimed mini-series “Last Stand of the Wreckers.”
He is best known for his own mini-series to illustrate, a prequel comic to the “Transformers: Dark of the Moon” film. Griffith also has worked on various projects for Hasbro, illustrated Transformers DVD covers for Shout! Factory, and contributed professional work on properties including G.I. Joe, TMNT and Back To The Future. Griffith’s pencils can currently be seen in the IDW Publishing’s Ongoing Transformers series, “Robots in Disguise.”

Yours truly will be hosting a Transformers panel Saturday July 8th 2017 at Montreal Comiccon. It is for general audiences, showing the evolution of Transformers designs in both animation models and toys from the 80s to this year. We will have toys from G1 to this year's Transformers The Last Knight on hand. The panel will be in room 515a at 2:30 pm and it will be cohosted by fellow Seibertronian Kanrabat. See you there!

Didn't you also host a similar panel last year, that time with Optimus prime as the model of the evolution?

Yes we did!
And if we get selected for next year too, I have an awesome idea for the next panel. But you'll have to wait a year to find out.

Hey Seibertronians!
I, your very own Bronzewolf, will be hosting a Transformers/Toy Industry panel at Fort Collins Comic Con in Colorado on Sunday, August 27th, starting at 2:15 in the Enterprise room! I'll be doing a small presentation on how the growing culture of adult toy collectors has shaped the toy market, followed by a Q&A, where you can feel free to ask me anything, wether it be about Seibertron, Transformers, pop culture, or anything else you want to know!
I'll have a wide array of Transformers, old and new, from G1 to Masterpiece, on display to show the evolution from basic children's toy to hyper accurate, super articulated collector's grade figure.
It promises to be a fun time, the first of what I want to be many, and I hope to meet some of you there! Please drop by if you're in the area!

Further schedule updates and general details will be posted to the Fort Collins Comic Con facebook.

I meant Masterpiece, as I said. "a wide array of Transformers, old and new, from G1 to Masterpiece, on display to show the evolution from basic children's toy to hyper accurate, super articulated collector's grade figure.
"
We wouldn't have the Masterpiece line if it weren't for adult fans/collectors.

Her last few issues of TAOO were great.
But I wasn't a fan of those Hasbro-verse books.

the first few issues of TAAO were ok, then it descended into...yeah....
Now I see her with credits on such animated series as Guardians of the Galaxy. Apparently continuity in these series means absolutely nothing anymore. Its just about being a pale copy of the films. Season 3 kicks off literally with an episode which is an animated version of the Mission Breakout ride at Disney's California Adventure. The characters are automatically updated to look like their post *Volme 2* selves with no regard to what happened in the last season. Gawd....being a fan of comic-based animated series is torture. But I don't fully blame Scott, she is just a pawn in all of this.
Jeph Loeb is the mastermind of this disaster. I hate his decisions so much. As great as Spectacular Spider-Man & Avengers: EMH are, (which Loeb cancelled) I've rewatched them so many times in the past decade, I have them practically memorized.
