Transformers #1

A bold new era for the Autobots arrives with this Image Comics launch, as Daniel Warren Johnson and colorist Mike Spicer bring their distinct energy to one of science fiction's most enduring franchises. The cover assembles a striking group of Autobots — Optimus Prime looming large at the center rear, flanked by Prowl and Ironhide, with Arcee and a smaller Autobot (Bumblebee) gathered in front — rendered in Johnson's expressive linework against a wide open sky and dusty terrain. It's a confident, grounded portrait that feels both faithful to the robots' classic designs and charged with something genuinely fresh for 2023.
