Transformers Ongoing Series #1 Eight Page Preview

By Primus on Saturday, November 14, 2009

IDW is really pushing the new Transformers #1 ongoing series hard. The new and somewhat controversial Generation 1 series comic has many fans up in arms over the character focus, art style and direction the comic opens with. Is this a marketing ploy, new direction or just bad writing for the umpteenth verison of the G1 comics? Check out the preview and judge for yourself - Spoilers Ahead.

    It's been three years since the devastating events of All Hail Megatron. The Earth has been rebuilt, the Autobots are in hiding, and the next great era in the Transformers saga is about to begin! Critically acclaimed writer Mike Costa is joined by superstar artist Don Figueroa for IDW's biggest book of the year-the launch of the first ongoing Transformers title in five years! This is what fans have been waiting for, so you do not want to miss this!

    Publisher: IDW Publishing
    (W) Mike Costa
    (A) Don Figueroa

    Item Code: SEP090852
    Title: Transformers #1
    Price SRP: $3.99

The whole small heads was Pat lee. The Gen 1 comic I was reffering to was Dons. As for the Artists Not getting Paid thats a problem that to be honest none of my concern or yours unless you are one of those artists. Cause Im sure I paid for my comic book when I went to the store to get it. And thats... read more

and the marshmellowy designs, small heads...and artists not getting paid. I miss it, too. Not really. I do miss Don drawing faces on his characters, though. Instead of treating this as an "on-going" series, it should be treated it as another mini/macro-series, to avoid a style shock w... read more

They just look too busy. The story is well to be expected. It brings people in knowing their favorite G1 Persona just died. Ironhide will be brought back in issue 7 all bulked up. I really miss dreamwave's clean g1 style.

Okay, forget the designs for a minute, forget the focus, the art... ...who the heck is this writer? Those captions are . I'm intrigued by the story, but there's no way I can handle that narration/dialogue.

The designs are universe classics that needed UNICEF to dig them a well, but died of dehydration before Halloween and were left out in the sun for 6 weeks. It's like movie prime came through and tore off everyone's faces. The Bodies are fine, it's the dead eyes and grotesque heads.

We are a fickle, fickle fan community. But just watch and wait. These redesigns will catch on with a good portion of the community and will be shunned for all eternity by the other. Just like movie designs, just like Animated, Beast Wars, etc., etc. Everybody needs to chill. Hasbro's bound... read more

Why do we need a reboot and why should they loose? Frankly, the idea of humans using power armor/exo suits/gundamgelion battle transector suits/whatever seems like it's long overdue. Humans pitted against giant alien robots using battle suits to defend themselves makes perfect sense to me and... read more

Not be bashing you homie, but Takara (Transformers)& BANDAI (Gundam) are not one & the same. They are both competitors still.
