| 12.21.2018 – In case you’ve been living under a Rock Lord you’ll probably wonder what’s happening lately? For the comic book fan out there looking for something to sink in after the finale with the Transformers series you may want to get nostalgic with this one.
Go-Bots by Tom Scioli was underrated just like the toys themselves back in the 1980s. But would you give these Gobotronians a shot? |
Certainly, you’ll try to scamper for the first issue by now. The second issue depicting Cy-Kill on the cover hits comic book shops next week and some surprises.
Yes, the Go-Bots are making a comeback and it may not be in toy form, but through the comic books as for those who grew up with this ‘poor man’s Transformers’ they’re certainly worth the read. Local comic book shops in Metro Manila, namely Comic Odyssey and Planet X Comics have released announcements of the arrival of the second issue.
They’ll be released next Wednesday in time for the Australian Boxing Holiday or post-Christmas Day in the Philippines which will be on 26 December 2018. You read the complete synopsis below and the other two variant covers for issue two:
GO-BOTS #2 COVER A by TOM SCIOLI, COVER B by Dash Shaw, and COVER C by Jim Rugg, (1 in 10 copies)
