The Transformers: Autocracy Trilogy

A collected edition from IDW, The Transformers: Autocracy Trilogy (2018) gathers three previously serialized miniseries—Autocracy, Monstrosity, and Primacy—into a single hardcover volume. Written by Chris Metzen and Flint Dille, with art by Livio Ramondelli, this epic explores the early days of the war on Cybertron, focusing on the rise of Optimus Prime and Megatron's conflict before the conflict ever reached Earth. The trilogy offers a dark, painterly look at the origins of the Autobot-Decepticon struggle, expanding the lore of the pre-Earth era for longtime fans.
