At present, there has already been more than thirty Transformers titles published, but come the end of this year and the beginning of next, IDW Publishing will take a stab at a new Transformers comic series. Those veteran fans of animation and comics that have loved this particular franchise since its inception decades ago will be thrilled to find that the publishers intend to follow the classic Generation One storyline upon the selling of a few issues of the new comic. Because the classic storyline has been snuffed as of recent due to excessive merchandising and new, unsupported animated television series,' the Generation One concept will be published in hopes of appealing to those true fans of the Transformers franchise, while still offering those newer fans something intriguing.
The old Optimus Prime. Note his ability to turn neck and generally move. This was not carried over into the movie. After having beast modes, living with Mini-Cons and starring in a B-Movie, the Transformers cast were finally offered a new show that lived up to the standards of G1 - Transformers Animated. Many familar faces flocked to sign up to appear in it. In the end, the series began airing at the end of 2007 and now continues throughout the new year. The cast all got the "Cartoon Network treatment", going to a plastic surgeons for several months and getting remodeled. A lot of the cast ended with rather large chins, particularly Starscream.
Transformers Launched in 1984, the Transformers toyline was promoted through both a comic book by Marvel Comics and an animated series produced by Sunbow Productions. Although the comic outlived the animated series by a number of years, it was the animated series that truly captured the hearts and minds of children worldwide more so than any other piece of Transformers media from its twenty year history. With the original show's conclusion in 1987, original series exclusive to Japan were created which ran until 1990, and the franchise was later reimagined with the CGI Beast Wars in the late 1990s. The current run of cartoons have been co-productions between America and Japan.
