Overview
[edit]Set some time after the events of War Within: The Dark Ages, The Age of Wrath finds the various factions on the brink of signing a peace accord, with the Autobots coming out on top after the Border Wars. The ceremonies are rudely interrupted by the arrival of Megatron, however; soon the Decepticon leader has conquered the entire planet with an army of drones, with most of the Autobots enslaved. A band of Autobot freedom fighters captures one of the drones to study, while searching for the lost Optimus Prime.
The series made prominent use of some later-era characters such as Nightbeat and Getaway, and even the Turbomasters.
Dreamwave went bankrupt after the publication of issue #3, preventing the publication of the final three issues.
Creative team
[edit]Like its two predecessors, the series was written by Simon Furman. Pencils were done by Joe Ng, who provided additional re-designs of old characters to give them Cybertronian vehicle forms.
Notes
[edit]- One character from this series was later made into a toy for the Titanium Series toy line: Ultra Magnus. However, while the comic depicts Magnus to look much like his traditional appearance, the toy is a redeco of War Within Optimus Prime, designed by Don Figueroa. Magnus was never seen to transform in the series so it's possible his inner robot/cab was a white redeco of Prime.
