The Transformers: Till All Are One is an ongoing comic series begun by IDW Publishing in June 2016. With The Transformers following Optimus Prime's exploits on Earth and More than Meets the Eye set in deep space, Till All Are One takes place on Cybertron and the lost Titan colonies. As a sequel to the two Windblade miniseries, the ongoing comic follows the adventures of Windblade, Starscream, and the Council of Worlds as they attempt to maintain the newfound peace.
The title is not just a callback, it's thematic: all the characters are striving to bring about the unity and cohesion that the term implies, but the biggest threat is that assimilation and imperial hegemony will be forced upon the Cybertronian worlds.[1]

Overview
In the wake of the Combiner Wars, Cybertron finally reestablished contact and opened up diplomatic relationships with five of its colonies: Caminus, Velocitron, Devisiun, Eukaris, and Carcer. Thanks to the efforts of Optimus Prime and cityspeaker-turned-diplomat Windblade, these scattered Transformer civilizations have formed an interplanetary parliament known as the Council of Worlds. Now it's up to Windblade and her allies to keep Starscream and his boundless political ambitions in check, both on Cybertron and amongst the colonies.
Starscream begins using his secret police, the Badgeless, to lobotmize Decepticon citizens in search of the whereabouts of Swindle's body, which vanished not too long after Starscream shot him the back. This riles up the Decepticon population, prompting Windblade to attempt to reign in Starscream, who then reminds her about the leverage he holds over her bodyguard Chromia. Things get worse when Onslaught and the Combaticons kill a Decepticon in an attempt to spur the general public into overthrowing Starscream. In response, Starscream appoints Ironhide as the new Head of Cybertron Security and begins recruiting cybertronians for his new police force, including Blast Off, who was actually playing the double agent role for Onslaught. Soon enough, Swindle's whereabouts are uncovered and it leads the Combaticons to the depths of Metroplex, where they merge into Bruticus and rampage throughout Iacon. Ironhide is called in to bring the gestalt down, and after the dust settles, Chromia confesses to Cybertron that she planted the bombs on Caminus, and is promptly arrested thereafter.
