The Transformers: The Complete All Hail Megatron ( July 27, 2011) ISBN 1600109551 / ISBN 978-1600109553 As there is an earlier comic book series with the same name, I have dubbed this The Transformers (2014 series). If you don’t want to you don’t have to. I’ve listed everything for those who are interested in reading everything. For those who don’t want to take the plunge into the entire run then you can start anywhere you see a bold issue. These are intended to be jumping-on points. What’s the difference between Phase 1, 2, and 3? The sequel to Devastation composed of four Spotlights in fairly direct continuity: " Cyclonus", " Hardhead", " Doubledealer" and " Sideswipe". This series wraps up the first set of Dead Universe-related events. The Transformers: Generations (2006–2007) — [12 issues] Reprints random old Marvel Comics issues, specifically ones that did not feature Marvel-owned characters such as Circuit Breaker.The Transformers: Spotlight (later The Transformers Spotlight), published since 2006, is an semi-ongoing series of one-shot comics published by IDW Publishing and set in the 2005 IDW continuity.

Cover B: A monochromatic stylized, and rather art-deco image of Blurr sprinting by Trevor Hutchison. Transformers: Beast Wars: The Ascending (2007–08) — A four-issue sequel to The Gathering that began publication in October 2007. After a heated exchange in which Optimus explains Cybertron's " Golden Age" only left the planet's rulers weak, and that the Decepticons are taking advantage of that weakness, the future Prime offers Blurr a spot within the Autobot ranks. After thinking it through, Blurr rushes off, breaking through the Decepticon barricade (and a few Decepticons as well), toward Zeta Prime's citadel headquarters. Could it be Schmidt is the guy I've been looking for? He showed respect for past material, referencing events from past spotlights, and opened up a very intriguing storyline that has me stoked. His dialogue was never superfluous and he added just the right amount of wit and humor to it.A four-issue story arc detailing the events surrounding Megatron's rise to power and the founding of the Decepticon faction. The re-retitled continuation of Robots in Disguise. Optimus Prime grapples with what it means to be a Prime as he defends his adopted homeworld of Earth. Written by John Barber and drawn (mainly) by Kei Zama. Instead of an ongoing civil war on Cybertron which spills over to Earth by accident, Furman presented us with an interstellar war between the Autobots and Decepticons, a war with a Code of Interplanetary Conflict and alt-form-and-dagger covert operations, with energon the prize and whole planets at stake. A surprising development on Earth heats up the war and turns our planet from just another proxy battleground into the ultimate prize. The art style applied in Kita and Coll's seem to borrow some elements from Japanese manga, namely the big eyes that emphasize Kita's emotions throughout the story. Spotlights and downlights are popular lighting fixtures used in both residential and commercial spaces to enhance the overall ambience and highlight specific areas. A ceiling spotlight typically consists of a directional light source mounted on a fixed or adjustable fixture, allowing you to illuminate a particular spot or object with precision. These spotlights are often used to showcase architectural features or focal points in a room. On the other hand, downlights offer a downwards facing light typically recessed into the ceiling, perfect for kitchen and bathroom areas.

Cliffjumper crashlands on a remote planet and encounters two young aliens named Kita and Coll, orphans who maintain their family's farm with help from a nearby village. Kita and Coll determine Cliffjumper is friendly and offer him enough synthetic Energon to refuel, and the little red Autobot in turn helps the siblings revitalize their farm. One day, though, a Decepticon unit lands on the planet and threatens Coll; although Cliffjumper manages to kill three of the Decepticons, Kita is fatally injured during the skirmish. Cliffjumper stays with Kita until she dies and destroys the remaining Decepticons in a fit of rage. After burying Kita's body and ensuring Coll is taken in by the village, Cliffjumper steals the Decepticon ship to rejoin the Autobot forces. Transformers: Best of the Rarities (2022) — Rare or never-before-reprinted stories, curated by James Roberts. Transformers: Bumblebee - Go For the Gold (2018) — A one-shot prequel to the aforementioned graphic novel.
