This summer IDW and Marvel comics will be teaming up to bring use a four issue mini series starring the New Avengers and the Transformers.

Writer Stuart Moore and artist Tyler Kirkham will be the creators on the project. If you are a Transfan who’s hunger wont be fulfilled by the Transformers movie, be sure to pick this up.

“We wanted to match the Transformers up with a team that had characters whose personalities and powers all made for an interesting group dynamic when paired with the Robots in Disguise,” Ryall continued. “The chance to have the TFs crossover with folks like Spider-Man, Wolverine and Captain America, among others, was a lure that I couldn’t possibly resist. The chance to work with Bill Rosemann on the project just made it that much sweeter.”

Some readers might be wondering why the Transformers will be encountering the New Avengers first and not another Marvel team like say The Fantastic Four or the X-Men. “The characters in this New Avengers team (we’re setting this story between the events of ‘Breakout’ and ‘Sentry,’ the 1st two new story arcs) has it all: an all-star line-up, an espionage undercurrent, and a great human perspective,” said Rosemann. “I mean, you can just imagine what Spider-Man is going to say when he first sees a vehicle transform into a giant robot! So the two groups of characters fit together quite well–but who’s to say we couldn’t see additional Marvel/Transformer adventures? Could the Human Torch’s flame melt a Decepticon? What would happen if Colossus and an Autobot collided?”
