Can you believe that Back to the Future left its first set of flaming tire marks on the cinema a staggering 35 years ago? Yes sir, the classic franchise is now boasting a double digit figure that’ll make you feel old as heck, and it’s time to celebrate! IDW Publishing is doing just that, with a good ol’ crossover that’ll see Marty “Don’t call me chicken” McFly and Doc Brown teaming up with…the Transformers.
Not the first major cinematic franchise to meet the robots in disguise (Ghostbusters and My Little Pony have had their own run-ins with the Autobots and Decepticons), the crossover still sounds wonderfully mad:
Marty McFly has just returned to his home sweet home, Hill Valley 1985, and everything’s looking up… that is, until Marty and his friend Doc Brown’s time machine attracts the attention of the Decepticons!” reads IDW’s description of the limited series. “With one small mistake, Marty finds himself thrust into adventure to stop the Decepticon plot in the past, present, and future… all with the help of a new time machine: the Autobot, Gigawatt!
And yes, that new Autobot is getting his own custom action figure and I MUST HAVE IT!
Great Scott, what a time to be alive! Now, onto the best comic book covers of the week!
