IDW has announced via their official website that their 2019 Transformers Issue #1 is getting a second printing.

The first issue of the IDW’s reboot of the Transformers comics has sold out at the distributor level, and a second printing of the first issue is slated for release on June 5th this year. Editor David Mariotte shared his thoughts on the matter:

“The response to the new Transformers series has been amazing. For a franchise with such a rich history — not just here, but in so many mediums — the first issue was something we knew we had to get right and it’s incredibly gratifying to me, the incredible creative team, the fine folks at Hasbro, and probably to Rubble and Bumblebee that so many people have jumped on-board. We have a lot more coming!”

We hope the reception of this new title continues growing among fans. If you missed the first issue, now it’s your chance to grab it. You can read the full announcement here, and then join to the ongoing discussion on the 2005 Boards!
