The Transformers: Sins of the Wreckers

Nick Roche writes and co-illustrates this five-issue IDW miniseries from 2015–2016, a gritty, character-driven follow-up to his acclaimed Last Stand of the Wreckers. Picking up with the surviving members of the elite Autobot team, Roche and artist Nick Pitarra plunge the Wreckers into a brutal, morally complex mission that tests their loyalties and scars them anew. It’s a taut, visceral story that deepens the franchise’s lore by focusing on the cost of heroism and the ghosts that soldiers carry.
