The Transformers will explore the genre fiction sta𓃲ple of alternate realities when IDW Publishing debuts two new titles in August - Transformers: King Grimlock and Transformers: Shatteღred Glass.
King Grimlock is a five-issue limited series written by Steve Orlando, with a✅rt by Agustin Padilla and colors by Jeremy Colwell, that casts the iconic Dinobot into a world of "fantastica♛l beasts and magical powers!"
"In ꦛa savage world where the strong rule with sword and iron, the Dinobot Grimlock finds a new opportunity to prove he's the strongest ♎there is..." reads IDW's description (which is more fun read in Don LaFontaine's movie trailer voice in your head).
"But as Grimlock and the human barbarian Arko will le♛arn, sometimes brute strength isn't enough."
Orlando says King Grimlock "is a 🔯sky-high dream come to life," and so big he wasn't sure if the Transformers universe could contain it.
"This is a first-of-its-kind, science/fantasy epic for fans new and old, whether you follow the animation of the '80s, the modern shows 𒁏of the '00s, the big-screen blockbusters, the decades of incredible comics, or if you've been intrigued by Grimlock action figures on the shelf. Everyone's welcome!" says Orlando.
Covers will be by Cary N🐓ord, Padilla, and Mateus Santolouco.
"By spotlighting a beloved character like Grimlock in an epic barbarian fantasy, Steve, Agustin, and Jeremy are crafting an iconic story that expands the understanding of who Grimlock is and what a Transformers story can be," says editor David✃ Mariotte. "Plus, a two-story tall rob🐭otic T-rex battles dragons, magicians, and monsters, which is awesome."
Transformers: Shattered Glass is also a five-issue limited series based on a previously-announced . Written by Danny Lore with art by Guido Guidi (issues #1, 3, and 5) and Dan Khanna (issues #2 and 4), and colors by John-Paul Bove, this one promises to take everything fans know about "Cybertronian lorඣe" and turn it inside out.
I𒊎n other words, it's kind of like a Mirror Un൩iverse/Elseworlds story.
"In a parallel universe, a war raged across the cosmos from Cybertron to Earth… a war between Decepticon laborers-turned-freedom fighters and the power-hungry Autobot autocrat𒊎s," reads the description. "Many kilocycles after the blue planet was devastated and the Decepticons were brought to heel, the evil Autobot bodyscrapper named Blurr hunts a new bounty... one who holds a piece of information that could reignite the war!"
Loꦐre self-describes as a nerd "whose heart swells when they hear Optimus Prime and St🐭arscream's voices."
"As a writer, I love exploring characterization, what the core elements are that make someone who and what they are," Lore says. "Creating these Shattered Glass versions💃 of childhood favorites is like building the perfect Combiner for me: what are the nuts and bolts that we can swap out while still making them recognizable?"
Cover artists 💧for Transformers: Shattered Glass #1 are Alex Milne, Khan💜na, and Sara Pitre-Durocher.
"Our wonderful partners at Hasbro made a huge splash with their recent announcement of new Megatron and Blurr action figures packaged with our Shattered Glass comics, and we’re proud to bring that story content -- and specifically three cover🌼 variants exclusively available to the comics retail channels -- to the wide audience of monthly comics readers," says assistant editor Riley Farmer.
