Summary

This volume is one installment of the Chinese edition of Marvel's original Transformers comics (G1). Marvel's Transformers launched in September 1984 as a four-issue miniseries meant to accompany a toy launch, but sales far exceeded expectations and it ran all the way to issue #80 in July 1991, spawning spin-offs such as Headmasters and G.I. Joe crossovers. The story centers on the Cybertronian civil war: Optimus Prime's Autobots and Megatron's Decepticons are locked in a stalemate on their home planet, and the conflict soon spreads to Earth, drawing humans and Nebulans into a long-running war between mechanical life forms. The Chinese edition was launched by New Star Press in 2017, digitally re-mastered and recolored, with translation by Sailianzhen @Taiyangfeng. New Star Press released the series in separate volumes, and a boxed set has also appeared under the same ISBN. This is Volume 10 of the series, collecting the serialized content corresponding to that volume; for exactly which issues each volume collects, please refer to the table of contents in your physical copy. For readers new to the original comics, it is recommended to start with Volume 1, from issue #1 "Transformers," and read through to "The Last Autobot."

Editor's review

对80后、90后来说，“汽车人，变形出发”是一句能让整间教室沸腾的口号。这套漫威元祖漫画正是当年热播动画之外最原汁原味的延伸，1984至1991年间由孩之宝与漫威联手打造。它最初只是配合玩具上市的4集短篇，封面甚至印着“四期限量系列”；结果销量远超预期，-story被一路续写到80集，还顺带把蜘蛛侠请来客串过一把。新星出版社的中文版把全部80集故事按册推出，采用电脑重新制版与重新着色，既保留了手绘时代的线条质感，又把老印刷的灰暗层次拉了回来，读起来比翻旧杂志舒服得多。这套书最迷人的地方在于“密度”：短短80集塞进了三百多个角色，三变金刚、合体金刚、微型战士、头领战士、能量战士等设定依次登场，多数角色的名字与性格就是在这批漫画里被定下来的。相比之下，1990年代的动画反而只是二手转述。若你只想收藏，整套是更稳妥的选择，装帧整齐便于陈列；若只想先试个味道，单册入手也不错。

Reading tips

本册为系列第10册，请先读完前9册再读，否则人物与线索会接不上。
每册开头先看目录和“前情提要”（若有），确认这一册覆盖哪几集。
遇到陌生角色可对照角色名表或同系列档案资料，避免混淆同名不同人。
建议按1984年9月至1991年7月的连载顺序通读，才能体会从玩具广告到完整世界观的演变。

FAQ

这套新星版《变形金刚》一共几册？

新星出版社2017年出版的漫威元祖漫画中文版，收录1984年9月至1991年7月的全部80集美国版故事。市面资料对该版本的册数说法不一，有“全6册”“全8册”等不同记录，且同一书号（9787513326964）下出现过分册与盒装两种形式；具体册数请以实物版权页和目录为准。

第10册对应的是哪几集漫画？

各分册具体收录区间在公开资料中没有统一标注。建议直接翻看手中这一册的目录页或版权页，上面通常会列出收录的集数与原标题（例如“第×集 19××年×月，××××”）。

没读过前面几册，能直接从第10册看起吗？

不建议。元祖漫画是连续连载，人物关系和主线（塞伯坦内战、地球战场、头领战士等）都在推进；从中段切入容易看不懂谁是谁、为何开战。最好从第1册第1集读起。

这套漫画和动画片《变形金刚》剧情一样吗？

不完全一样。漫画与Sunbow动画同期并行、各自展开，部分设定和剧情走向有差异，例如漫画曾在第3集引入蜘蛛侠，第4集结尾出现震荡波消灭汽车人的“伪结局”。可以把它当作动画之外的另一条G1线索来读。

中文版有重新着色吗？和原版有什么不同？

据出版方介绍，中文版对原版进行了电脑重新制版与重新着色，意在保留手绘线条的同时改善旧印刷的色彩与清晰度；阅读顺序和故事内容依原刊编排，未做剧情改写。
