We’re kicking off August with a blast! Issue 73 of Transformers: REANIMATED launches the start of a pulse-pounding two part arc: Jhiaxus Got His Gun, Part 1.
We don’t want to spoil too much, but let’s just say… not every bot walks away from this one.
Jhiaxus has returned, and his awesome power is unleashed in this high stakes page turner.
On cover duty this month is the incredible duo: Casey Coller and John-Paul Bove! Their talent, experience, and love for Transformers explodes off the page with a stunning visual that perfectly captures the tone of the story.
A shadow returns from the depths of time. His name? Jhiaxus. His mission? A secret buried in the heart of the Autobot Ark: The lost body of Megatron. To claim it, he’ll have to slip past an army of Autobots, outwit Optimus Prime, and face the might of the Protectobots… united as one. But what drives this time-displaced Decepticon? And what will happen if he succeeds? The answers lie inside the mysterious and thrilling new issue of Transformers: REANIMATED.
The cover image tells you everything: Jhiaxus, unstoppable. Hot Rod, powered down. The sense of peril is palpable, and the danger is real. This powerful piece was inspired by John Byrne’s iconic cover for Superman #3, and Coller and Bove absolutely nailed the homage while keeping it G1 (with a hint of G2) to the core.
Written by Greig Tansley from the Unfunny Nerd Tangent podcast and Youseph (Yoshi) Tanha from the YoshiCast, this G1 adventure follows in the Transformers: ReAnimated tradition of bridging the gap between the cartoon’s second season and the 1986 Movie that defined the childhood of millions.
So, if you did like issue 73: Jhiaxus Got His Gun, Part 1, then please consider contacting the other SKYBOUND Entertainment (Via E-mail or Twitter) and let them know you would have liked to see Transformers: REANIMATED as an ongoing comic book series written by Yoshi and Greig.
