The SIEGE is underway, and it appears there will be a new "Transformers" comic, that's really the name, ti support of the new War For Cybertron line. Specifically, the focus on "Cybertron Before the War" will be giving us an interesting new comic series that looks at the time before the conflict between Autobots and Decepticons began.

You can see just from the preview pages that Megatron and Optimus Prime are spitting images of their action figure counterparts. Something I don't think we've seen coordinated so well before between comics and action figures. So it is kind of exciting to be able to collect both the toys and comics together.

According to writer writer Brian Ruckley, he will be supported by artists Angel Hernandez and Ron Joseph to launch the new "Transformers" comic series beginning in March with two issues and many special covers:

We are eager to begin this new chapter in Transformers storytelling,” Michael Kelly, Hasbro’s vp global publishing, said in a statement about the new series. “We are excited to begin a tale that will be accessible and appealing to readers unfamiliar with Transformers lore, while still providing the depth and drama that our longtime fans expect. It’s a big responsibility, but we’ve got the right team and the right characters to do it.

...

Just as important, it’s an amazing opportunity for new readers to discover and explore one of the biggest universes — and one of the best casts of characters — that science fiction has to offer, and to get in right at the start of a truly epic saga.
