Robert Kirkman is an American comic book writer best known for his work on The Walking Dead, Invincible for Image Comics, as well as Ultimate X-Men and Marvel Zombies for Marvel Comics. He has also collaborated with Image Comics co-founder Todd McFarlane on the series Haunt. He is one of the five partners of Image Comics, and the only one of the five who was not one of the original co-founders of that publisher.
Robert Kirkman's first comic books were self-published under his own Funk-o-Tron label. Along with childhood friend Tony Moore, Kirkman created Battle Pope which was published in late 2001. Battle Pope ran for over 2 years along with other Funk-o-Tron published books such as InkPunks and Double Take.
In July of 2002, Robert's first work for another company began, with a 4-part SuperPatriot series for Image, along with Battle Pope backup story artist Cory Walker. Robert's creator-owned projects followed shortly thereafter, including Tech Jacket, Invincible and Walking Dead.
With Springer, my favorite Autobot triple-changer, much is revealed about the ties Cybertronians have to our main characters in Void Rivals. Much more remain hidden, but enough is revealed to whet the appetite for future story speculation.
After a journey spanning ten issues, "Void Rivals" by Robert Kirkman has finally captured my full attention. The series took its time to build, but the payoff in issue #10 was worth the wait. The intricate storyline, which initially felt meandering, has now woven together a tapestry of engaging characters and compelling plot twists. The slow world-building has paid off, creating a rich and immersive experience.
One of the standout elements of "Void Rivals" is the art style of Lorenzo De Felici. His illustrations are nothing short of stunning, bringing Kirkman's complex universe to life with vibrant detail and dynamic compositions. De Felici's ability to convey emotion and action through his art adds a profound depth to the narrative, making each page a visual delight.
Issue #10 marks a turning point in the series, solidifying "Void Rivals" as a must-read for fans of sci-fi and intricate storytelling. If you, like me, found the initial issues slow, I highly recommend sticking with it—by the tenth issue, you'll be deeply invested in this captivating world. I look forward to the ever-increasing growth of the Energon Universe.
Robert Kirkman aún sigue con su cocción lenta y medida con esta curiosa piedra angular del Universo Energon. Pero sí queda claro que este número ya marca el fin de esa presentación general de personajes troncales y contextualización del conflicto paralelo a la guerra Cybertroniana y lo que acontecerá en la Tierra con la implicación de los G.I. Joes y COBRA. Justamente el ya tener un Autobot como co protagonista de la cabecera, azuza a Void Rivals a dar rienda suelta a todo este sinfín de descubrimientos constantes a través de Darak y Solila.
