Beginning in 2011, IDW Publishing began a second reprinting of the Generation 1Marvel Comics in full-color trade paperback omnibuses a year after completing their previous Classic Transformers reprint series. The difference this time being that these volumes contain all the omitted issues that were excluded from the previous release due to those issues featuring copyrighted characters such as Spider-Man or Circuit Breaker.
Due to the restoration of the missing issues, however, this results in these volumes being released in a smaller format with fewer chapters than before. In addition, the previous listed price of $19.99 of the Classic Transformers volumes has been upped to $24.99. On the plus side, these volumes have freshly remastered and recolored each of the individual stories for maximum reader enjoyment. Mark W. Bellomo provides editorial content, and Guido Guidi provides new cover art.
