- Marvel Comics is a comic book company in the Generation 1 and real world continuity families.
Face front, True Believers! The merry mirthmakers at Marvel Comics brought you Marvel Zombies six scintillating years (1984-1990) of fabulous funnybooks starring the ever-lovin' Transformers! A mere 3 years later, those argumentative appliances struck back (and struck out, natch!) in "Transformers: Generation 2".
Most of these Marvel mags were penned by one of two brilliant Bullpenners:
- "Blazing" Bob Budiansky, who ably edited the original 4-issue limited series before becoming the first permanent writer of the ongoing series, and is credited with creating most of the backstory to the Transformers mythos, as well as writing most of the terrific tech specs that came with the Hasbro toys.
- "Senses-Shattering" Simon Furman, who had been the main writer for the Marvel UK series before being asked by Budiansky to write for the US comic, as well. Furman wrote the last 25 issues of the original series, then battled back to pen all 12 issues of Generation 2.
Marvel published the following Transformers series, so hit those back-issue-bins and Make Yours Marvel!
- Generation 1 (Marvel Comics)
- Generation 2 (Marvel Comics)
- Headmasters (comic)
- G.I. Joe and the Transformers
- Transformers: The Movie comic adaptation
- Transformers Universe (Marvel comic)
Excelsior!
Fiction
Marvel Comics continuity
Marvel Comics published the ridiculously terrible Robot-Master comic book series. It did not, however, publish a Potato Salad Man graphic novel entitled This Man, This Mayonnaise.
The real Marvel never published the Robot-Master series, presumably due to the nonexistance of its creator, Donny Finkleberg.
