IDW have announced a new Transformers comic event, 'Transformers: Unicron', that promises to be the exciting culmination of twelve years of stories.
'The fate of all worlds are at stake, as the world-eating menace Unicron has set his sights on Cybertron, home of the Transformers robots, and the next in line... Earth! A bi-weekly six issue event titled Transformers: Unicron arrives in July and will bring about the end of the Transformers universe as we know it. As Optimus Prime gathers his defence against the monstrous threat, it might be too little too late.'
Writer John Barber said, 'Transformers: Unicron is a culmination of the years of Transformers comics I've been a part of, and the conclusion of one of the longest continued narratives in Transformers history. This is a story of heroism in the face of impossible odds; a reckoning for an entire universe. I couldn't be luckier than to have Alex Milne right here with me on this - if you know Alex, you know nobody puts more into Transformers than he does, and nowhere before has he drawn drama, action, and pathos on this scale.
'Tying it all together is the incredible palette of Sebastian Cheng. We've never held back on our Transformers comics, but this time we're pushing ourselves - and each other - harder than ever.'
Associate Editor David Mariotte added, 'Transformers: Unicron is a grand finale to the past 12 years of Transformers comics at IDW and to really celebrate that and to celebrate the people who have made it such an amazing ride, we're getting some amazing, beloved artists to contribute to what I'm sure will be our biggest - literally - transformers story ever. This is an amazing event years in the making and one that only works because of the years fans and creators have invested in the comic.'
Transformers: Unicron is set to begin with an issue #0 on Free Comic Book on May 5th.
