What a exciting two years this has been in the Transformers fandom! What began in Void Rivals with an appearance from Jetfire, Transformers has been non-stop action, great characterizations and spectacular art and typography. The 24th issue released last week to wrap up the Daniel Warren Johnson era and so much happened. I don’t want…

Comic Connoisseur: Energon Universe SDCC Reveals
This is way late, but I wanted to post this anyway. I am a big fan of what Image/Skybound is doing with the Transformers and G.I. Joe properties. After what IDW crafted with their universe, I didn’t think it could be topped, but these creative teams have crafted a modern classic with their story to…
One Shall Stand…Transformers #24 Preview
It all comes down to this! The story that started in Void Rivals with Jetfire getting reactivated by Darak and Solila, concludes its first 24 issue epic with Transformers #24. And fittingly we will get a battle between Optimus and Megatron. I’m honestly sad to see this creative team go. They have crafted such a…
Transformers Studio Series 86 Commander Class Ultra Magnus Official Images
During SDCC last week, Hasbro had their Transformers panel revealing a bunch of new figures coming soon. One that instantly caught my eye is the upcoming Studio Series Ultra Magnus. This isn’t just a straight up reuse of the Siege Ultra Magnus mold. Judging by the images, this looks to be a new figure drawing…
Dinobot Snarl Makes His Debut In The Studio Series Line
The Studio Series “86 is my favorite sub-line in the Transformers Brand. Finally, we are getting cartoon accurate figures that aren’t Masterpiece figures. While I enjoy all of them, the Dinobots are the stars of the line. At least until they figure out a way to get us a Megatron with his accurate Walther P-38…

It’s that time of year again! The time where comic fandom converges on San Diego to celebrate sequential art and related media. Yesterday the Hasbro Transformers Brand team had their SDCC panel revealing upcoming products in the Legacy line. Check out the official images Hasbro sent out this morning. I have the little Prime Master…
Hasbro Transformers Fan First Friday 2/4/2022! New Studio Series ’86 Reveals!
My Transformers collecting has slowed immensely in recent years. I collected quite a few of the initial wave of Siege figures, but I didn’t really get a lot of Earthrise or Kingdom figures. The figures were good, but with the rising cost of things, Transformers purchases became less frequent for me. I mainly picked up…
Hasbro Reveals New Shattered Glass Jetfire
I’m not much of a Shattered Glass fan. I like the classic versions of the Transformers teams that I grew up watching in the 80’s. This new Shattered Glass Jetfire though will have me rethinking my stance on them. In most canon, Jetfire starts off sympathetic to the Decepticon cause. In the original G1 series…
Hasbro Reveals New Transformers Selects Artfire
I’m not sure why Artfire is a thing. Almost everytime there is a new mold for Grapple/Inferno, there is a special release for Artfire. Now, don’t get me wrong. The color deco of the bot is nice. I think the problem I have with this character is that he’s a character from the Targetmaster/Headmaster era…
