As well as the [[The Transformers (animation)|''Transformers'' cartoon]], there was at the same time a comic published by [[Marvel Comics]]. It is sometimes stated that the comic came before the cartoon; in truth, both went into production at the same time, though the first issue of the comic was released some time before the first episode of the cartoon.
 
The comic was initially set in the main [[Marvel Universe]], but soon moved to a separate [[Alternate Universe]] along with the ''[[G.I. Joe]]'' comic to prevent [[Executive Meddling]] from Hasbro interfering with Marvel's own characters. Most of the early issues were written by Bob Budiansky; he and his successor, Simon Furman, would end up having more influence on the overall ''Transformers'' mythos than anyone else.
