‘Void Rivals’ #2 Gets A Second Printing From Skybound

by Olly MacNamee

Possibley because fans of the first issue may have been expecting more Transformer surprises, it comes as no surprise to me that Void Rivals #2, by Robert Kirkman and Lorenzo de Felici , has sold out at the distributor level on the same day it hit comic book shops. Thus, the announcement of a second printing with a very spoilerific cover featuring Skuxxoid, a classic Transformers character from the original animated TV show who appears as the last page reveal in the sophomore issue of this all-new series.

“In Void Rivals, war rages around the Sacred Ring, where the last remnants of two worlds have collapsed around a black hole in a never-ending war. However, when pilot Darak and his rival Solila both crash on a desolate planet, these two enemies must find a way to escape together. But are they alone on this strange planet? And what dark forces await that threaten the entire universe?  After the jaw-dropping reveal in the debut issue, everything Darak and Solila thought they knew about the Sacred Ring’s never-ending war has changed. To deliver the truth back home, they must first get off this deadly planet—by any means necessary.”

Additionally, the second printing of Void Rivals #1 has sold out in comic books shops and will return with a third printing. Both new Void Rivals printings will be available on August 16th, 2023, the same day Void Rivals #3 arrives in comic book shops.
