The rumors are true. IDW will lose the Transformers license<\/a> at the end of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IDW is losing the publishing licenses to G.I. Joe and<\/em> Transformers<\/a><\/em>, the San Diego-based comic book publisher has announced.<\/p>

The moves comes in the wake of The Hollywood Reporter<\/em> reporting in December that Skybound, the imprint run by The Walking Dead<\/em> creator Robert Kirkman, was in talks to pick up <\/a>the license from Hasbro, the Rhode Island-based toy and media corporation.<\/p>

\u201cAt the end of 2022, IDW will bid a fond farewell to the publication of G.I. Joe<\/em> and Transformers<\/em> comic books and graphic novels,\u201d the company said in a statement provided to THR<\/em>. \u201cWe\u2019re exceedingly proud of our stewardship of these titles \u2013 17 years with the Robots in Disguise<\/em> and 14 years with A Real American Hero<\/em> \u2013 and thank the legion of fans for their unwavering support, month in and month out. We\u2019re also eternally grateful to every one of the talented creators who helped bring these characters to four-color life through our comics.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
