Between the Autobots and Dece♚pticons, there are Transformers who can turn into almost anything, from dinosaurs, to tanks, to cassette tapes and beyond. And now, there's a Decepticon who will have to try and make a name for himself with perhaps the most benign transformation yet: a ballpoint pen.
Transformers: Worst Bot Ever: Meet Ballpoint is a new YA/Middle Grade original graphic novel which puts it all right out there in the title - Ballpoint is a Transformer who turns ꦬinto a pen and he'🐼s the worst.
"The Decepticons are known for being bad...but Ballpoint is truly the worst –the biggest failure of them all. After the latest attempt to take down the Autobots goes horribly wrong, he's kicked out of the Dece�🐠�pticons, for good!" reads Skybound Comet's description of the OGN. "Will Ballpoint be able to prove his worth by defeating the Autobots all by himself? Or will he keep failing and find that being the “best” is...More than Meets the Eye?"
It's honestly a pretty f꧟unny concept, and the Transfor🦂mers franchise has always had its share of comedy, so it seems like a match made in heaven for a YA OGN.
Speaking of which, Transfor꧑mers: Worst Bot Ever: Meet Ballpoint will be the first release from Skybound Comet, Skybound Entertainment's new young reader focused imprint. It also marks the first in a series of original graphic novels created by writer Brian 'Smitty' Smith and artist Marz Jr.
"It's been awesome bringing Ballpoint to life," says Brian 'Smitty' Smith in a statement accompanying the announcement. "Getting to add a brand-new character to the Transformers universe is 𝔍a once in a lifetime opportunity!”
"I've been obsessed with Tra𓄧nsformers since I was a kid," adds Marz Jr. "The 1986 animated movie blew𝔉 my mind! I've tried to put that magic and love into each page."
