Why IDW Is Rebooting the Transformers Franchise
The Transformers comic book universe as you know it is gone. Last year's Transformers: Unicron didn't just bring an end to a 13-year saga of Transformers comics at IDW Publishing, it also marked the end of the entire Hasbro Comic Book Universe. But that doesn't mean IDW is finished with this license.
Instead, the company is using 2019 to reboot Transformers and start fresh. Their newest series, simply titled Transformers, reboots continuity from square one and travels back all the way to the beginning of the rivalry between Optimus Prime and Megatron.
We had an opportunity to interview both IDW Editor-in-Chief John Barber and Hasbro's VP of Global Publishing Michael Kelly to learn more about the new series and why starting from scratch was the right move for this long-running franchise. They also shed light on a brand new character that is a franchise-first and some unexpected ways in which the new series is exploring the humanity behind the Robots in Disguise.
