Nerd bling, indeed

Steampunk Transformers? Nerdgasm!

Looks like there’s going to be a Transformers comic book miniseries set during the Industrial Revolution.

As cool as this is, I gotta say, the Autobots are not the brightest when it comes to picking their vehicle forms. Typically, an Autobot is, as the name suggests, a land vehicle, while the Decepticons fly around above them as F-15s or winged bugs or whatever.

In this miniseries, it looks like the Autobots have limited themselves even further by transforming into trains.
