I've done something TRANSFORMERS related for the past three fall seasons, and this year will be no different, other than that we're starting a month or so early due to the shorter-than-normal summer ROBOTECH review series. Last year I wrote about
Dreamwave Productions' main TRANSFORMERS series from 2002 - 2004, in the form of their first two mini-series and their aborted ongoing run. This year we'll look at the ancillary Dreamwave Transformers material in order of publication. We'll lead off this Friday with the six-part TRANSFORMERS/G.I. JOE mini-series in one go, and then it'll be issue-by-issue examinations of:
- TRANSFORMERS: THE WAR WITHIN
- TRANSFORMERS: WAR WITHIN: THE DARK AGES
- TRANSFORMERS: MICROMASTERS
- TRANSFORMERS: WAR WITHIN: THE AGE OF WRATH
- TRANSFORMERS/G.I. JOE: DIVIDED FRONT
Note that those final two series were cut short by Dreamwave's collapse, but I intend to cover them anyway for the sake of completeness.
Note as well that this should be my final go-round with Dreamwave's Transformers work. I read their ARMADA/ENERGON series back when it was released, but I found it boring and incomprehensible and I really have no desire to ever read it again. So if I return to the robots in disguise again next fall, it'll be via a different publisher and another continuity.
This material should fill my Fridays up through the end of the year, so buckle up and get ready to roll out!
