Revolution # 1 (IDW Comics 2016)

Revolution #1 (IDW Publishing)

The crossover event that changed the IDW universe forever begins here!

This is the spark that ignited a new era. In this massive premiere issue, the disparate worlds of Transformers, G.I. Joe, Micronauts, Rom, Action Man, and M.A.S.K. collide for the first time in a shared continuity. When the Transformers’ Ore-13 energy source begins to threaten the planet, the Joes think it’s an alien invasion—and the battle lines are drawn.

The world of IDW was never the same after this. Heroes from your favorite 80s franchises are forced to face a common threat—or destroy each other first. It’s a high-octane, blockbuster event that blends sci-fi, military action, and cosmic wonder into one epic narrative.

Issue Highlights:

• Creative Team: Written by Cullen Bunn (Deadpool, Harrow County) and John Barber (Transformers), with explosive art by Fico Ossio.

• The Shared Universe: The definitive starting point for the "Hasbro Comic Universe," bringing together legends like Optimus Prime and Snake Eyes.

• The Story: A fast-paced political and military thriller that recontextualizes these iconic characters for a modern age.

• Format: Full Color | IDW Publishing.
