IDW’s new editor John Barber shared his thoughts on Hasbro’s Transformers and
G. I. Joe Franchises.
“Q: Would I be right in saying the movie comics are currently done until what happens next with the franchise is decided?
A: I can’t confirm or deny anything right now. I’m just not sure what we’re going to do about moving forward. Its one of the things on the agenda I have to talk about when I get to IDW. We’ll see where everything stands and figure it out from there.
Q: After planning and plotting through three major, and well-received movie-verse comic series - how would you describe your Transformers perspective/history/vision to fans that might not know much about you, other than your work?
A: The thing I wanted to do going into the movie-verse was respect it and what had gone on before, and also tell stories I felt people would want to pick up. You know, if they had never seen a comic or maybe they’d come out of the movie theatre and they wanted some more. As much as the continuity stuff played a role in it—and as big a length as I went to not contradict or retcon anything—to me, the main thing was that you could pick up Foundation or Rising Storm and get a whole new set of adventures with these characters. You know, sometimes you see these movie tie-ins, and I’m not speaking of the Transformers ones, I mean historically throughout the history of comic books, and the worst ones for me are those that focus in on one specific continuity issue, or thread, that someone really wouldn’t care about. You should be able to enjoy these without necessarily knowing what came before.”You can read more (and not just movie-verse, mind you) over at

Auto Assembly Update

TFW2005:
With all the excitement of TFCon now passed (and what a great weekend it was), we now turn to the third of the big three summer Transformers conventions:
Auto Assembly. AA2011 is less than two weeks away, and there is plenty of news about the 2011 and the 2012 conventions.
First and foremost, we've got the program for the events across the whole weekend. An update went out by email within the last two days, detailing the various panels, contests and other activities taking place. Read on for the full text of this update. The key panels taking place across the weekend include Auto Assembly's first ever Friday panel,
celebrating the 25th anniversary of Simon Furman's legendary UK story Target 2006. This panel is hosted by Nick Roche and also includes Simon Furman and Geoff Senior. Saturday will see a panel with Gregg Berger, while Sunday's program includes panels with David Kaye, David Wise, and Death's Head!
Other events across the weekend include contests for Artwork, Kitbash, Mosaic, and Cosplay, a Beast Wars Transmetals videogame tournament and a Transformers Connect 4 tournament.
Another great event over the weekend is that
Hasbro UK will have a display of upcoming Transformers products. The display is billed as showcasing some of the latest Transformers available - so probably nothing groundbreaking in terms of upcoming products, but still a nice chance to see some toys yet to hit the UK in the flesh.
