Much to your admin's two minds about it all,* Panini Comics - who publish the Italian translations of Marvel comics - will be releasing the Italian translation of IDW Publishing's Transformers, starting from The Death of Optimus Prime! The first volume, due in May, will include the not-really-a-one-shot and the first three issues of More Than Meets the Eye from way back when. Check out the new blurb, in translation and including the original Italian spelling of the brand 'Trasformers', below!
With a new film due in cinemas soon, the new Trasformers series debuts in Italy! With The Death of Optimus Prime! we find a new beginning for Autobots and Decepticons, in a fierce war for the past several millennia. All robots are called back to home planet Cybertron from Earth... and here the problems begin! Is it actually easy to leave war behind you?

The catch being that you have to collect each panel in random packs of stickers.

Panini? Back in the 80's we had some collectable sticker albums of various shows (Voltron, Thundercats etc...) that were distributed by a company with this name...I wonder if its the same or just a coincidence?

If i remember correctly Panini also do the UK reprints for Marvel, so maybe they also reprint them over in the UK.

I was gonna ask Va'al if he did any translation on these. Too bad.
Now speaking of panini, I want a snack.
