Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast #229 "Galaxies"

Play NowOn the very special 229th episode of the Seibertron.com Twincast Podcast, the team sits down with writer Tyler Bleszinski and artist Livio Ramondelli, the creative tandem behind the initial "Constructicons Rising" storyline in the upcoming Transformers: Galaxies series from IDW Publishing. A look into all aspects of this forthcoming comic book awaits, beginning with discussion of the approach behind the characters of the Constructicons and how that informs their design. After a brief look into what Devastator will mean for the book, a chat about the production of the comic takes focus as the creators share a glimpse into the process that makes the story come to life. Some teases follow in regards to some other characters that may be present in the story as well as how it relates to the ongoing monthly "Transformers" series also being released by IDW. Our guests also discuss working with Hasbro and their editors before talking about how the recent clean slate provided by a total relaunch of Transformers comics helps allow freedom in what they can do with this story arc. Bleszinski and Ramondelli help us answer a listener question about what other combiner teams would be interesting to write about, with a certain predatory king being a popular selection. The episode winds down with a discussion of favorite toys and moments from the past featuring the Constructicons and Devastator before concluding with a last look into the upcoming comic book and how to order it.
