Transformers: Death of Optimus Prime\\u2028

Letterer:Shawn Lee\\n
On Earth, the AUTOBOTS learned of the treachery of their human allies--and their loyalty was pushed past the breaking point. In space--with the fate of the universe at stake--the TRANSFORMERS waged the final battle for the fate of CYBERTRON. With the end of CHAOS, the war between the AUTOBOTS and DECEPTICONS is over.

\\n\\n

Now the hard part begins, as the survivors must confront their future head-on. The TRANSFORMERS\\u2019 homeworld is reborn--but it\\u2019s not the safe home the AUTOBOTS had hoped for. Amidst a hostile planet--and an angry population--AUTOBOT leader OPTIMUS PRIME must try to unite the divided loyalties of his fellow TRANSFORMERS. In the process, he is forced to question whether he is the ruler a united CYBERTRON needs. IDW\\u2019s December comic, TRANSFORMERS: THE DEATH OF OPTIMUS PRIME, answers that question, once and for all.

Major Spoilers Poll of the Week:FIGHT\\n
This week, we are pitting two of the biggest Saturday Morning Cartoon teams against each other, and we want to know who would win.\\n
The Impossibles (1966)\\u2028
The Impossibles were a trio of rock and roll musicians. When contacted by \\u201cBig D\\u201d (voiced by Paul Frees) about criminal activities in Empire City, they became superheroes. Like the Monkees, the group\\u2019s appearance (in their musician form) was based on 1960s pop star stereotypes, which included somewhat long hair, brightly colored (and matching) outfits, high-heeled boots, screaming female fans and, unlike the Monkees, no percussion or bass instruments.\\n
The Mighty Heroes (1966)\\u2028
The Mighty Heroes was an animated television series created by Ralph Bakshi for the Terrytoons company. The original show debuted on CBS, on Oct. 29, 1966, and ran for 1 season for 21 episodes. The series is set in Good Haven, a city that is continually beset by various supervillains. When trouble occurs, the city launches a massive fireworks display to summon a quintet of high-flying superheroes into action.
