New Worlds In IDW's Deviations

Alternate histories. Imaginary stories. What ifs. The road not taken. As long as people have told stories, they have imagined stories in which events went a different way. This spring, IDW Publishing imagines how some of their top franchises would have gone had an event happened in a different way in their five-part event, Deviations!

Transformers fans know that Optimus Prime's death in Transformers: The Movie elevated Rodimus Prime to the Autobots' leadership, putting this untested Autobot in position to destroy the world-devourer Unicron. But what if Optimus Prime had never died? Could he have defeated Unicron, or would Cybertron and Earth have fallen? Find out in Transformers Deviations!

In their epic battle against Gozer, the Ghostbusters had to do something truly dangerous -- cross the streams of their plasma packs! But what if they had listened to Egon's warnings and never crossed those streams? Would the portal of Gozer have ever been closed, or would New York City -- and the world -- have fallen to the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man? The answers will be found in Ghostbusters Deviations!

Plus, stories in which the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are trained by Splinter instead of Shredder in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Deviations, the world is dominated by the forces of Cobra in G.I. Joe Deviations, and Fox Mulder is abducted by aliens instead of his sister in The X-Files Deviations!

Discover worlds that are both strangely familiar and completely different in IDW Publishing's Deviations event this March! You'll find all of these titles in the January 2016 edition of the PREVIEWS comic shop catalog, now at available at your local comic shop!
