The Top Fifteen WORST Transformers Things IDW Produced!
IDW Publishing’s almost done with Transformers after eighteen years
producing content for the franchise and the license to make Transformers comics will rest with some other publisher very soon. The second Shattered Glass
mini-series was currently still going as of the writing of this list, but for all intents and purposes,
we’ve seen all we’re gonna see from IDW in terms of Transformers.
The influence IDW’s comics have had on the brand is quite significant, introducing or solidifying characters, story elements, and mythology that will undoubtedly be permanent fixtures in future Transformers fiction for years to come. Just about everyone who has read IDW Transformers at some length has a beloved story or preferred take on a classic or new character or even a favorite toy directly influenced by the IDW comics.
BUT.
IDW’s also produced some stinkers in their time. Bad stories, bad takes, misreads of the fandom, and utter misfires of projects. This is what I’d like to talk about for a little while because I’m in a mood. What follows is my personal bottom fifteen WORST things IDW ever produced, and they’re not all stories. Also, there’s a dis-honorable mention and a “0” entry, as usual with my lists.
One last thing… SPOILERS- Tom Scioli’s work is not on this list because it’s awesome and you’re bad for not liking it.
