'''''Beast Wars Metals''''' was a Japan-only comic ([[manga]]) published simultaneously with the Japanese release of the second and third seasons of the ''[[Beast Wars (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'' TV series. It is noted ("scorned" is not too strong a word) for its radical redesign of many of the characters. It follows the ''[[Beast Wars II (manga)|Beast Wars II]]'' and ''[[Beast Wars Neo (manga)|Beast Wars Neo]]'' manga series, allowing for some inevitable continuity flaws.

[edit]

Fifteen freakin' years later, the series was finally collected in an e-book by publisher Hero-X. Why it wasn't initially collected like the previous Beast Wars manga series by Imaki, who knows. Better late than never, though.

A physical release of the collection followed in July 2016, published by Fukkan.com in conjunction with the Beast Wars 20th anniversary. All customers who pre-ordered the book got a bonus postcard with art from the comic, and 30 lucky souls got a copy with an autograph by Imaki.
