Thanks to Newsarama, we have news that IDW and Tom Scioli are bringing the Go-Bots back with an IDW series written and drawn by Scioli himself! Scioli is best known in the Transformers fandom for his work on Transformers vs. G.I. Joe a few years back and says this is five-issue series is “a labor of love”, excited to breathe some life back into this 80s classic.
The series launches in October, so stay tuned for more info over the next couple months!

Dash Shaw is doing alternative covers for the book!
quote "What an honor . …I've read some of it and it's even better than Transformers vs G.I. Joe, a modern masterpiece IMHO."
I agree w/ Dash Shaw's assessment of TF vs GIJoe, that book was amazing. Getting extremely hyped for this one!

This isn’t a Go-Bots reboot. There was never a Go-Bots comicbook before, even in the Go-Go 80’s. This is the first Go-Bots comicbook ever. Pre-order issue 1 at your local comics shop.

Tom Scioli you bloody legend. He’s probably one of my favourite artists and writers now.

To make matters worse, they already proposed the idea in one of their comics.

Take that and use the modern updates of the Mini-bots and you’ve got yourselves a whole array of exclusives.

Go-Bots were always the K-Mart of Transformers to me… but I wish they had done a combiner using various iterations of Go-Bots..
Leader-1 from Air Raid
Cy-Kill from Groove
Optimus Prime from Breakdown
Megatron from Dead End
Aerobot from Silverbolt
All leaders from various Go-Bot factions..

Man I really wish Funpub had done a Gobots themed set for the last Botcon. I need new updates of the Gobots bad.

The only gobot I know is screwhead. Cause of that one robot chicken skit.

And he used the Action Toys model instead of the classic supercar.

Ugh, why can't they be a part of the TF IDW verse? What could be the hurt?
