Spike Witwicky returns!
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Transformers are making their grand return to comic book pages courtesy of Skybound Entertainment, with previews for the debut issue of the new Transformers ongoing series confirming that they will be joined on their latest adventure by long-time human ally Spike Witwicky, who will be reintroduced in the new canon.
Launching in October, the new Transformers will be written and drawn by Eisner Award-winning cartoonist Daniel Warren Johnson. Robert Kirman's Skybound Entertainment has officially released a preview for the first issue, which confirms the return of Spike Witwicky, the Autobots’ ally from the original G1 cartoon. Check out the preview for Transformers #1 below.
The Witwicky Family Are Longtime Allies Of The Autobots Although the girl is not named in the preview, it’s a good bet that this is Carly, Spike Witwicky’s girlfriend in the original G1 cartoon. An MIT student who had an interest in electronics and chemistry, Carly would eventually marry Spike, and the two would eventually give birth to Daniel, who made his debut in 1986’s Transformers: The Movie.
In the original G1 cartoon, “Sparkplug” Witwicky worked with Spike on an offshore oil rig, encountering Autobots and Decepticons alike. That element seems to be retained in the Energon Universe, as the teens stumble across the remnants of a Cybertronian battle, with a damaged Optimus Prime front and center in the splash page closing out the preview.
