TRANSFORMERS VINTAGE #1 COMIC BOOK.
The ORIGINAL TRANSFORMERS Comic Book that was published by Marvel Comics in the eighties!
On a faraway world in the Alpha Centauri system, there existed a world known as Cybertron. There, through a strange process of carbon-bonding, a race of mechanical beings called Autobots evolved, eventually transforming their world into a paradise.
But one group, the Decepticons, were not content with their peaceful life, and launched a deadly war for control of Cybertron. After a terrible global conflict, the Decepticons were on the verge of total defeat when they changed plans suddenly and fled to Earth. There they disguised themselves in other forms, such as cars and planes. But at a moment’s notice, they could once again transform into terrible machines of destruction. To save Earth from their ravages, the Autobots were also forced to come to Earth to battle their age-old enemy.
The Transformers derived from a popular line of toys.
For a comic book based on a line of toys, The Transformers retained its popularity for a remarkable length of time. The comic’s initial run lasted for over seven years—eighty issues in all. In that time, the heroes—a team of mechanical beings called the Autobots—waged a desperate war against the evil transformers known as the Decepticons, led by the dreaded Megatron.
Synopsis:
For over one thousand years, the war between the valiant Autobots and treacherous Decepticons waged over the surface of their home planet Cybertron, a world of steel and iron. When it is detected that Cybertron's path is drifting close to an asteroid field, Optimus Prime, leader of the autobots, is dispatched with a small cadre of Autobots to clear a safe path for the passage of the planet. But a sneak attack on the Ark by Megatron, the head of the Decepticons, forces Optimus to plot a suicide course directly into the uninhabited third planet of the Sol system - Earth.
Four million of years pass until the Ark's computer is awakened by the eruption of the volcano it had crashed into upon its arrival. Restoring and rebuilding both Autobot and Decepticon alike into the forms of what it erroneously believes are the dominant forms of life on the planet (cars, trucks, airplanes and other mechanical devices), the Ark returns life to both sides.
Not far away from the site of the volcano, "Sparkplug" Witwickey and his high school-aged son Buster are among the first to encounter a Transformer, when Bumblebee is injured in a Decepticon attack and Buster drives him back to his father's repair shop.
