About the series
In 2022, IDW flipped the script on the classic Transformers mythos with Shattered Glass II, a five-issue series that expands the mirror universe where noble Autobots are villains and heroic Decepticons fight for freedom. Building on the original Shattered Glass concept, this run deepens the twisted morality of a world where Optimus Prime rules with an iron fist and Megatron leads a desperate rebellion. Associated with writer Danny Lore and artist Bethany McGuire-Smith, the series matters for its sharp character inversions and its commitment to exploring the consequences of a hero-villain swap without losing the core Transformers drama.
