"Dis-Integrated Circuits" (US #9 / UK #33-34" Sick to death of having everything he owns stolen by Shockwave, GB Blackrock has publicly announced an upcoming demonstration of his new anti-robot cannon, which he plans to use to wipe out all those pesky giant robots. Later, at the hospital,...

"The Wrath of Grimlock" (UK #32) Grimlock is about to blast Guardian in the head, which will also blow the entire mountain sky high. But right before he pulls the trigger, he's stopped by...Optimus Prime? Wheeljack had been able to tap onto Prime's body and control it remotely with the computer.

"The Wrath of Guardian" (UK #31) Upon seeing Swoop's condition (it's not good), the rest of the Dinobots decide to do what they always do - fight! Guardian is immensely powerful, however, and is at best holding his own, and is at worst giving the Dinobots a beating.

"Decepticon Dam-Busters" (UK #29-30) On their way back to the Ark after neutralizing Megatron (for now), Ratchet and the Dinobots encounter humans that don't seem too thrilled at their presence. Swoop doesn't understand - why do the humans hate the good guys?

"Repeat Performance" (US #8 / UK #27-28) Ratchet has made his way to the last known location of the Dinobots, in the hopes that they're still in good enough shape to handle Shockwave for him. At the same time, Shockwave brings the head of Optimus Prime to the aerospace facility he conquered...

"Warrior School" (US # 7 / UK #26) Buster and Ratchet have left the Ark and are headed back to Sparkplug's garage, stopping to spend time with some campers along the way. While hanging out by the campfire, Buster suffers a terrible headache as his mind flashes back to his encounter with Optimus.

Dave Twigg @theboxenking.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

"The Worse of Two Evils" (US #6 / UK #24-25) Shockwave has arrived at GB Blackrock's oil drilling platform, and while it is heavily defended, Shockwave has little trouble dismantling the resistance and taking command. In the battle, Blackrock's wizkid engineer, Josie Beller is seriously injured.

Dave Twigg @theboxenking.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

"The New Order" (US #5 / UK #22-23) Megatron's the recipient of both good news and bad news: the good news is that, with Shockwave's sudden arrival, the Autobots have been obliterated. The bad news is that he's been so ineffectual so far that Shockwave has taken command of the Decepticons from him!

Dave Twigg @theboxenking.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

"Raiders of the Last Ark" (UK #18-21) Following directly on from the last issue, Megatron leads his troops in an assault on the Ark. The Decepticons appear to be getting the better of things, so Optimus makes a plan to reactivate the artificial mind of the ship, known as "Auntie".

Dave Twigg @theboxenking.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

"The Enemy Within" (UK #13-17) While the Autobots are fixing up the Ark, Brawn gets zapped by a piece of electroncs and when he wakes up, he starts acting erratically and irrationally, to the point where he attacks the other Autobots and sets out on his own. At the same time...

Dave Twigg @theboxenking.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

"Man of Iron" (US #33-34 / UK #9-12) Whoa, what's up with those crazy issue numbers? We'll get to that. A sudden strike by two unidentified fighter jets (guess who) hits the ancient Stansham Castle, in England. Not long after, young Sammy Harker comes face to face with a huge robot in the woods.

Dave Twigg @theboxenking.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

"The Last Stand" (US #4 / UK #7-8) The Autobots are understandably furious that Sparkplug gave Megatron the fuel he needed, but they can't decide what to do about it. During the argument, he and Buster make a break for it, when suddenly he collapses in pain! For real this time! (See last recap)

100

Dave Twigg @theboxenking.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

"Prisoner of War" (US #3 / UK #5-6) The Deceps have Sparkplug at their mercy, demanding he create usable fuel for them while letting the Autobots rust. The military has set up camp outside the D's fortress in an effort to get them to come out and talk, which goes about as well as you'd expect.

Dave Twigg @theboxenking.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

"Power Play" (US #2 / UK #3-4) Both factions need fuel, and true to form, Megatron is just gonna take it! He sends a crew to ransack a nuclear power station for supplies and equipment. Sparkplug manages to repair Bumblebee (he's just that good I guess), who explains the situation to the humans.

"The Transformers" (US #1 / UK #1-2) As will be the case almost every time, this issue was split in half between 2 issues in the UK. Some later issues would be split up into 3 or even 4 parts. Fun! The comics start in a very similar way to how the cartoon started:

A few tidbits about the #Transformers comics and how I plan to tackle recapping the series: 1. I am no expert on the history of the comics and their production, and almost everything I know has been aggregated over the years by reading the relevant articles at TFWiki.net. It is an AMAZING resource!

Not sure who will be interested and I have so few followers anyway, but soon I'll be starting a recap/review/read-along of the entire Marvel #Transformers comic series (US and UK books)! I've read them all before, some many times, others only 2 or 3. But as a kid...

Met Mick Foley at Knoebels (Pennsylvania amusement park) while he was waiting for his wife and kids to finish up on one of the coasters. He's well-known as a big fan of the park and goes there often, and my wife and I had been joking around about seeing him there...and there he was.

Locals are celebrating, and it’s the kind of story we all need right now. The “local woke mob” chased a Nazi brewery out of town, and we’re all celebrating our newly bestowed moniker. But wait! It gets funnier. 🧵/
