Skybound has revealed the lineup of Autobots in Daniel Warren Johnson’s new Transformers series in a series of social media teasers, with the Decepticons to follow during the week of June 27. The Autobots will be Optimus Prime, Ratchet, Cliffjumper, Arcee, and Wheeljack.
The new Transformers era, which Skybound has dubbed the “Energon Universe,” was revealed on June 14, when the Transformer Jetfire showed up in Void Rivals #1 (see “Skybound Brings G.I. Joe and the Transformers Together in Shared Universe”). Transformers, which will be written and drawn by Johnson with coloring by Mike Spicer, is one of three new series that will continue the story; the first issue will be released on October 4, 2023.
Meanwhile, the film Transformers: Rise of the Beast topped the box office in its opening weekend, grossing $60.5 million (see “Weekend Box Office Winner”), and followed that up with another $20 million in its second weekend (see “‘The Flash’ Disappoints”).
