Editing Unreleased Dreamwave issues

When [[Dreamwave Productions]] declared bankruptcy in 2005, several of their series were left hanging without any strong sense of closure. However, various sources have revealed small portions of what might have been, including solicitations sent to retailers before the bankruptcy. At [[New York Comic Con]] 2009 [[IDW Publishing]] revealed that while they do have the artwork from the unfinished/unpublished issues, they will not complete and print the issues as there is significant doubt that the artists and writers were paid for their work during the tail end of Dreamwave's run on the brand.

==''Energon''==
Despite [[No Exit|issue #30]] completing its current storyline, ''[[Transformers: Energon (comic)|Energon]]'' still had many unresolved plot points. Hasbro copywriter [[Forest Lee]] has suggested that the [[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|''Cybertron'' cartoon]] can be considered a follow-up, though it does require some stretching. 

In November 2010, [[Simon Furman]] started to reveal the plot of the unreleased issues on his blog.<ref>[http://simonfurman.wordpress.com/2010/11/22/energon-%e2%80%94-revisited/ "Energon Revisited"]</ref> TFWiki has created articles for each of these unreleased issues based on these summaries; links, and the original solicitations for the issues, follow below.

===Issue 31 — "[[Doomsday Redux!]]"===
"REVELATIONS! Just who is (or rather, was) [[Alpha Quintesson]], and what are his true plans for [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], [[Earth]] and [[Unicron]]? While seeming to serve the Chaos Bringer, the multi-faceted alien has been developing a world-shattering agenda of his own, one that bridges worlds and dimensions. Now, at last, Alpha Quintesson begins his ‘endgame’, and first in his sights is the [[Mini-Con]] [[Over-Run (Armada)|Over-Run]]!"

===Issue 32 — "[[Armageddon Part 1]]"===
"Demolished! The next — and final — ''Energon'' story arc gets underway in earnest! It's the beginning of the end as Alpha Quintesson and [[Avalon (Energon)|Councillor Avalon]]'s quest for the mysterious [[Conduit (Energon)|Conduit]] centers once more on the Autobots' human ally, [[Kicker Jones|Kicker]]. The all-new, upgraded [[Demolishor (Armada)|Demolishor]] is on the case, and he’ll stop at nothing — literally — to get the job done. Get ready for Armageddon!"

===Issue 33 — "[[Armageddon Part 2]]"===
"INFERNO! What happens when four living Energon powerhouses tackle a being of pure Energon? It's the fighting-mad [[Omnicon]]s —[[Arcee (Energon)|Arcee]], [[Signal Flare (Energon)|Signal Flare]], [[Strongarm (Energon)|Strongarm]] and [[Skyblast (Energon)|Skyblast]] — versus the plainly mad [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]], and the result is an Energon inferno that threatens to consume Cybertron! Plus... the return of [[Unicron's Four Horsemen]] and the shocking secret of the planet [[Nervissa]]!"

===Issue 34 — "[[Armageddon Part 3]]"===

No solicitation.

===Issue 35 — "[[Armageddon Part 4]]"===

No solicitation.

===Issue 36 — "[[Armageddon Part 5]]"===

==''Energon: More Than Meets The Eye''==
[[File:Energon MTMTE 1.jpg|thumb|200px|Cover for issue #1 by Guido Guidi]]

In keeping with ''[[Transformers: Armada (Dreamwave)|Armada]]'', a three-part ''More Than Meets The Eye'' series of ''Energon'' characters was also planned. Much of the artwork and profiles were completed. [[Alex Milne]] produced artwork for several character's profiles, which he ended up displaying and selling at conventions. These included Alpha Quintesson,<ref>http://s65.photobucket.com/albums/h214/Scaleface/Energon%20MTMTE/?action=view&current=mtmte-alphaquinetssion.jpg</ref> Alpha Trion,<ref>http://s65.photobucket.com/albums/h214/Scaleface/Energon%20MTMTE/?action=view&current=mtmte-alphatrion.jpg</ref> Arcee,<ref>http://s65.photobucket.com/albums/h214/Scaleface/Energon%20MTMTE/?action=view&current=mtmte-arcee.jpg</ref> Avalon,<ref>http://s65.photobucket.com/albums/h214/Scaleface/Energon%20MTMTE/?action=view&current=mtmte-avalon.jpg</ref> Galvatron,<ref>http://s65.photobucket.com/albums/h214/Scaleface/Energon%20MTMTE/?action=view&current=mtmte-galvatron.jpg</ref> Levitacus,<ref>http://s65.photobucket.com/albums/h214/Scaleface/Energon%20MTMTE/?action=view&current=mtmte-leviticus.jpg</ref> and Mirage.<ref>http://s65.photobucket.com/albums/h214/Scaleface/Energon%20MTMTE/?action=view&current=mtmte-mirage.jpg</ref>

Also tasked with doing art for the books was [[Guido Guidi]] who did the full three-part cover piece,<ref>[https://www.deviantart.com/guidoguidi/art/TF-Energon-Profile-book-COVERS-45513397 TF Energon Profile book COVERS] - Guido Guidi's DeviantArt account</ref> as well as character art for Barricade,
<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/guidoguidi/art/Unpublished-TF-Energon-MTMTE-7-45248877</ref> Blackout,
<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/guidoguidi/art/Unpublished-TF-Energon-MTMTE-1-45248275</ref> Blight,
<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/guidoguidi/art/Unpublished-TF-Energon-MTMTE-6-45248697</ref> Cyclonus,
<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/guidoguidi/art/Unpublished-TF-Energon-MTMTE-4-45248456</ref> Doomlock,
<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/guidoguidi/art/Unpublished-TF-Energon-MTMTE-3-45248420</ref> and Command Ravage.
<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/guidoguidi/art/Unpublished-TF-Energon-MTMTE-2-45248398</ref> Given the overlap between the ''Armada'' [[package art]] and the ''Armada'' ''More Than Meets The Eye'' series, it's probable that Guidi's package artwork for Bruticus Maximus<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/guidoguidi/art/Energon-Bruticus-Max-Boxart-128219434</ref> would've also made an appearance.

===Issue 1===
"It's ''Energon''{{'}}s turn to get the ''MTMTE'' treatment! Dreamwave's mega-successful series of official Transformers guidebooks returns with enough ''Energon'' facts, figures and profiles to put a smile on the face of any Trans-fananatic.

Horsemen, and more. Look for the third and final installment next month!"
{{-}}

==''War Within: The Age of Wrath''==
''[[Transformers: War Within: The Age of Wrath|War Within: The Age of Wrath]]'' would presumably have concluded with the defeat of the [[Air Warrior|Aerospace Extermination Squad]], based on the events of later stories. Many of the major characters — including Grimlock, seemingly killed in issue #1 — appear in later stories as well and therefore must have survived.

Additionally, several pages of art work were published in the [[Unofficial conventions|TransformersCon]] 2005 Program (which had several ex-Dreamwave employees as special guests). The covers to the issues were also seen in solicitations to comic retailers.

Furman would later sell signed copies of the completed issue 4 script at some 2010 conventions, and TFWiki has created [[The Age of Wrath Pt.4|an article]] based on it, and subsequently sold the completed issue 5 script and an outline of issue 6 in similar fashion at 2011 conventions, which TFWiki has also created articles for.

===Issue 4===
{{main|The Age of Wrath Pt.4}}
"ALONE! Stranded on a strange alien world, far, far from Cybertron, Turbomaster Flash is about to realize there really is no place like home... even when home is ruled by arch tyrant Megatron and his legions of clone warriors. The terrible truth behind the invasion and conquest of Cybertron is finally revealed. Now all Flash has to do is stay alive long enough to tell someone!"

* Page 4: Perceptor prepares to examine a captured clone warrior from the Aerospace Extermination Squadron.

===Issue 5===
{{main|The Age of Wrath Pt.5}}
"HE'S BACK! Optimus Prime, right? Well... maybe. But then again... maybe not! Blaster's desperate bid to free the enslaved 
Autobots lies in ruins, his and his entire team's lives are Megatron's to take at his will. But in their darkest hour, a hero returns to the fray, a force too powerful to be contained even by death's dark dominion. Prepare to be shocked senseless all over again!"

* Cover: [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]] held at gunpoint by [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]].

Starscream himself is lying there alive but in a great deal of pain, curled into a fetal position.
* Page 5: Blaster fights against Clone Troopers and Megatron, using sound attacks and his [[electro-scrambler]].

===Issue 6===
{{main|The Age of Wrath Pt.6}}
"Last Stand! Finally... the battle you've been waiting for! Optimus Prime returns to take on his archenemy Megatron. But is Prime the 'bot he was? Scarred mentally and physically by his nightmarish exile, Prime plainly may not be up to the job! But if he can't beat Megatron and stop the rise of his second-generation clone army ... who can?"

==''Generation One'' Volume 3==
Several covers of ''[[Transformers: Generation 1 (Dreamwave)|Generation One]]'' were distributed to comic retailers in solicitations. Pages from the unreleased volume 3 issue 11 were published in the fourth issue of ''The Comic Book Digest'' from Lamp Post Publications.<ref>http://lamppostpubs.com</ref> Additional pages leaked onto the internet revealed a great number of [[Exosuit]]s. In all likelihood, these are connected to [[Project Centurion]] mentioned in "[[The Route of All Evil]]".

[[Chris Sarracini]] and [[Guido Guidi]] were to take over from #12.<ref>http://seibertron.com/comics/view.php?comic_id=748</ref>

===Issue 11===
"Because YOU demanded it: The return of the Dinobots! The hot-tempered cavalier Hot Rod finds himself in over his head when a mysterious group of Transformers-like warriors interferes with a standard transfer mission. What are these mysterious agents truly after, and what hope do Hot Rod and his team have of stopping them?

===Issue 13===
"2005 is here - and the battle for the universe begins! Created by the sinister Unicron, the lone Cyclonus has been dispatched to search the galaxy for the missing Alpha herald, Scourge. But when his mission leads him to a top-secret storage facility on Earth, will Cyclonus find the end of his quest or the business end of several high-caliber EDC-issued blasters? This initial arc - "Detection" kicks off the biggest, baddest Generation One storyline ever! Get in on the ground floor for a front-row seat to the beginning - of the apocalypse!"

Interestingly, the original cover drawn did not show Cyclonus with the head of Scourge, but rather the head of a seeker.

===Issue 14 - "[[The Enemy Within]]"===
Although originally advertised with this solicitation...

"The humans fight back as the "Contact" arc continues! Recovering from Cyclonus’ violent assault on their facilities, the EDC tries to equalize the odds by activating its top secret defense plan—Project Centurion! Suspecting something sinister, Marissa begins to explore the real motives behind the EDC's newest operation. Fearing the worst, the recently revived Autobot leader Optimus Prime rallies his troops on both Earth and Cybertron for the dark future looming on the horizon."

...this plot was then bumped with intention of being replaced with a one-shot fill-in penned by Simon Furman centering on [[Jetfire (G1)|Jetfire]] and [[The Fallen]]. TFWiki has created [[The Enemy Within|an article]] for Furman's story based on a summary posted to his blog in late 2010.

===Generation One 2004 Datatracks Annual===
This low-priced one-shot was to be written by James McDonough and Adam Patyk, with art by Joe Ng and Don Figueroa.

"As Generation One's 20th anniversary celebration comes to a close, Dreamwave pulls out all the stops to reveal the all-new 2004 Datatracks, which boasts an original short story featuring the one and only Optimus Prime fighting alongside his brother, Ultra Magnus! Not only that, but fans can also expect brand-new expanded MTMTE entries for the female Autobots, Sunstorm, and a few more surprises! This exciting one-shot annual is the perfect way to cap off "Optimus Prime Month," while kicking 2005 into overdrive! This comic is priced to move at only $1.95 — so don't miss out!"

* Cover: Optimus Prime and an unarmored [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]] stand back to back, with images of Autobots, Decepticons, Quintessons and humans displayed behind them.

==="The Rules of Extinction"===

Referenced in a footnote in [[Extermination|issue #8]] of the Generation 1 ongoing, this story would have centered on the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]], apparently revealing how they came to Earth, battled the [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticons]] there, and were "rediscovered" in the present day by Optimus Prime's Autobots. Exactly ''how'' it was supposed to be published is unknown, but it's speculated it was to be one of the stories included in the Datatracks Annual covered above.

==''Beast Wars''==
{{main|Shell Game issue 1}}
Although heavily advertised, no issues of ''[[List of Beast Wars comics|Beast Wars]]'': ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars — Shell Game|Shell Game]]'' ever saw print. Scans found on the internet show it would have had strong similarities to the ''[[Transformers, Beast Wars: The Gathering|Beast Wars: The Gathering]]'' by the same creative team, and Simon Furman's original #1 script<ref>http://simonfurman.wordpress.com/2007/12/24/xmas-wrap/</ref> confirms that much of mini-series was recycled into ''Gathering''. A key difference was that the TV cast were to be involved. In addition, this ''Beast Wars'' would have tied in with the Ongoing G1 series.

The solicitation for #2 reveals there would be a flashback to "just after the end of the [[Great War (G1)|Great War]] on Cybertron... and witness the trial of Megatron! The verdict and judgment that follow set in motion a truly terrifying chain of events...".<ref>http://seibertron.com/comics/view.php?comic_id=785</ref> The cover showed ''Beast Wars'' Megatron on trial, so that's probably the Megatron they meant.

At Transformerscon 2004, Pat Lee also expressed an interest in possibly doing a complete series of ''[[Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More Than Meets The Eye]]'' profile books for ''Beast Wars'', including all non-show characters. As you can imagine, this never happened, but again, was an idea [[Transformers: Beast Wars Sourcebook|eventually implemented]] by IDW.

==''Transformers/G.I. Joe: Divided Front''==
Dreamwave's second crossover, ''[[Transformers/G.I. Joe: Divided Front]]'' managed to have one issue released before the company folded. Adam Patyk and James McDonough were scheduled to write issues 2–5, while Chris Sarracini was slated to write issue 6. Pat Lee was to draw all of the remaining issues.

===Issue 2===
"The secrets of G.I. JOE and COBRA'S past are revealed as the greatest arms race in history intensifies, blazing a path across the world. Desperate for an equalizer, the JOES raid a top-secret COBRA bunker located in the Everglades. But when COBRA'S newly hired DREADNOK biker gang intervenes, will the JOES be too late to gain the advantage and-more importantly-save their Autobot allies?!

* Cover: [[Zarana]], the [[Dreadnok]]s, and a deactivated [[Jazz (G1)|Jazz]].

===Issue 3===
"FAN-FAVE FIREFLY DEBUTS! Snake Eyes is a hard ninja to kill...which is why COBRA Commander has called in one of his biggest guns to do the job: the assassin Firefly! What is the history behind this COBRA'S rivalry with Snake Eyes? And can the Joes' ninja overcome this deadly saboteur in time to help his teammates retrieve the stolen Transformer technology from COBRA'S secret Arctic base? It's chaos on the ice as the Autobots face off against Destro's deadly COBRA/Decepticon hybrid warriors, with Starscream waiting to pick up the pieces!"

* Cover: [[Ironhide (G1)|Ironhide]] under attack from a pair of jets that look suspiciously like [[Dirge (G1)|Dirge]] and [[Thrust (G1)|Thrust]], and [[Snake-Eyes]] facing off against [[Firefly]].

===Issue 4===
"AUTOBOT vs. AUTOBOT! It's a robot riot as the new Cold War over the Transformers really starts to heat up! The G.I. Joes and their Autobot allies try to reconcile their opposing views and unite against COBRA...but can they? They're not the only ones whose tempers are flaring, as members of COBRA prepare to foil their increasingly deranged leader's top-secret project…if the mutineers can make it past Firefly and the elite Crimson Guard, that is!"

* Cover: Ironhide fights against [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]], and [[Shipwreck]] is there too.

===Issue 5===
"What is the terrible secret buried beneath Cobra Island? Whatever it is, Starscream and Soundwave want it bad...bad enough to destroy Cobra Commander if he doesn't give it to them! Flint and the Autobots must prepare an all-out assault of the island themselves to prevent the villains' evil plans, but can the G.I. Joes count on Snake Eyes to help them...or will his vendetta against Firefly doom them all?"

* Cover: [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] and [[Cobra Commander]] stand over a fallen Shipwreck.

===Issue 6===
"COBRA's plans for domination are in full effect and, thanks to Destro, the Autobots and the Joes are now public enemy #1! Even so, will our heroes be able to thwart Destro's plans? Maybe...but you won't believe who going to help them out. The ultimate retro crossover is about to go out with a bang!"
