TransFormers + Ghostbusters | Ghosts of Cybertron

06.29.2019 – The 1980s was the golden era of modern pop culture in the 20th Century with properties introduced from animation, movies, videogames, and merchandise. In that era, there are two of those properties introduced in cinema and television that continues to be relevant in other forms of media.

Ghostbusters and Transformers have built upon the cult following with their respective brands that still are marketable and after thirty-five years has been relevant. But what if both of these properties put together a “Collaborative” symbiosis that gives birth to something fresh and out of this world?

Early in 2019’s New York International Toy Fair Hasbro revealed what would be a tie-up with that property and that is with the Ghostbusters brand introducing a newly created Transformers character inspired with the elements of Ghostbusters that would become the Autobot Ectotron that turns into the iconic Ecto-1.

A few months forward to today with IDW Publication revealing that there’s going to be a crossover mini-series featuring these two brands that presented Ectotron!

Lindol #1 | The Good, The Bad, & Unshakable

09.06.2018 – When putting together an original concept into a comicbook series it takes A LOT of time to develop its stories, narrative, and the world building that would define a legacy. It is not just the synopsis but the idea that people would relate to or root for an unsung hero without the need to drag everyone to too much drama the way a zombie drags its undead half self to its next victim.

There’s something exciting why such local independent published works from Budjette Tan, Arnold Arre, or even Gerry Alanguilan became a household name. It is not because their works speak volumes that resonate more of Filipinos reading their creations it is about the simple basic reason without comparing this new series to their works.

However, the reason it was brought up to give you an idea why you should know about “Lindol,” a new series from first-time writer Tedi G. Villasor and an underrated multi-talented artist named Randy Valiente that has the same profound effect on the curiosity behind the concept of this locally published title.
