Tomorrow will bring Transformers: The Death of Optimus Prime that "celebrates" the 125th issue in IDW's continuity. It has been hinted for months now that this is the literal death of Prime which acts as an epilogue to previous IDW continuity and prologue to the new direction on Cybertron with the launch in January of Transformers: Robots in Disguise and Transformers: More Than Meets the Eye series. Of course being comics, death is rarely permanent and "death" is not always literal.

ReplyDeleteYou don't see bumblebee die a lot. They should give him an epic story so he could die. that sounded weird
ReplyDeleteIDW has done an awesome job with the series. Its tough to imagine a comic without the artists or writers that have been behind it for years. But 125 issues!? That is a milestone! I hope this new saga will be an eye catcher for fans who haven't read a TF comic recently. And always keep us on our toes.
