Ssalefish GSO First Look #328 for 8.16.23

Colton & I just got off a retailer call with Robert Kirkman & Daniel Warren Johnson discussing the Energon Universe that began in Void Rivals in June and will continue in October with DWJ on Transformers and then on to Joshua Williamson writing several G.I. Joe mini series in December & January! We also got to read an advance PDF of Transformers #1 and it. Is. AWESOME! We’ll have plenty of copies of all the covers for the first issue if you wanna hold out, but trust me when I say it is the best Transformers comic since Tom Scioli’s Transformers vs. G.I. Joe in 2015.

Another advance PDF we got a chance to check out was Rafael Grampa’s Batman Gargoyle of Gotham #1, out Tuesday, September 12th, which deals with the concept of Batman killing off the persona of Bruce Wayne so he can focus on being the Dark Knight full time. Grampa’s art is incredible, I’ve been a fan since Mesmo Delivery from Dark Horse, and his best known work is probably Dark Knight: Golden Child with Frank Miller.
