Transformers fans, rejoice! The critically acclaimed Transformers series from Skybound and Image Comics is kicking off a new arc with issue #15, set to hit shelves on December 11, 2024. With powerhouse writer Daniel Warren Johnson (Do a Powerbomb, Extremity) at the helm and Jorge Corona (Middlewest) stepping in as the new artist, this series is leveling up in a big way.

Critics are buzzing about this collaboration. Gonk Bonk calls it “career-defining work” and praises the way Johnson and Corona are expanding the boundaries of Transformers storytelling. Meanwhile, Comical Opinions notes that Corona’s art is the perfect match for Johnson’s narrative brilliance, calling it a “series that keeps getting better.”
