'''''The Transformers: Evolutions''''' is a line of alternate-universe [[Transformers]] comics published by [[IDW Publishing]]. The first story arc, ''[[Hearts of Steel]]'', presents a reality where the Transformers awakened in Industrial Revolution-era [[United States of America|USA]]. [[Bumblebee (G1)|Bumblebee]] and others become steam locomotives, while [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]] is an ironclad ship instead of a ray gun, and so forth.<br />
<br />
[[Chris Ryall]] has said it's very unlikely we'll see more from ''Evolutions''. [http://forum.idwpublishing.com/viewtopic.php?t=3845&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=30]<br />

'''''The Transformers: Revelation''''' is planned to be the follow-up miniseries to [[IDW Publishing]]'s ''[[Devastation|The Transformers: Devastation]]''. It has been revealed that in June, 2008, ''Revelation'' series will be played out through four [[Spotlight (comics)|Spotlight]] format issues, focusing on [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]], [[Hardhead (G1)|Hardhead]],[[Sideswipe (G1)|Sideswipe]] and [[Doubledealer]]. This four-parter will mark the end of the "-tion" series "for the foreseeable". <ref>http://www.idwpublishing.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=3599</ref> It had been hinted that the following volume would be titled ''The Transformers: Expansion'', but Furman now states that "the stuff [he] had (mentally) prepared for ''Expansion'' may still happen, just later or in a different form. <ref>http://simonfurman.wordpress.com/2008/03/13/revelations/</ref> IDW solicitations have confirmed that these four Spotlight issues will be ''in addition to'' the normal Spotlight series, with the first issue arriving the same month as [[Spotlight: Wheelie]].<br />

==Creative team==<br />
The creative team from ''[[Infiltration]]'' through ''Devastation'' (writer [[Simon Furman]] and penciller [[E. J. Su]]) will again work on ''Revelation'', though Su will only illustrate the first and fourth issues. [[Nick Roche]], who is doing a cover for each issue, will also pencil at least one of the issues.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* [[Chris Ryall]] made the decision to tie up the -ation run short here, explaining it as a basic business strategy for comics: "it's like any book on the market--sales start at a point and then they slowly dip until things are done to re-invigorate them... the reality is that sales numbers need to stay steady for a book to stay on the market. This isn't to say that things were by any means dire--they weren't at all--but we do need to occasionally mix things up so people don't just take a book for granted."

<br />
* ''Revelation'' will be the third IDW miniseries in a row that [[Revelation (Dreamwave issue)|borrows a title]] from [[Dreamwave Productions]]' ''[[The War Within: The Dark Ages]]'' series.<br />
