The team will star in the upcoming Transformers: Combiner Hunters comic book. The writer of the series Mairghread Scott spoke about the characters and her vision for Victorion.
"I don't like to give my characters a lot of breathing room, so Victorion comes into existence about a half-second before a sword flies at her head," she said. "Naturally, her first concern when it comes to other Transformers is not being killed by them. But IDW Transformers has always been interested in how people navigate a world of shifting alliances, imperfect heroes, and charismatic villains."

In fact Victorion will be on a quest to find more about the history of the Transformers on Cybertron. Hasbro's Trensformers design manager, John Warden also spoke to USA Today about the origins of these new characters. "They've been forced to adapt to their surroundings and have learned how to live without much. This makes them extremely resourceful," he said.

"Optimus is dealing with finding his place in a Cybertronian society that's changing, and Victorion will have life experiences and a world view that's different from Optimus'," Barber said.
This story will be followed through in Transformers 50, he dished, in which "Victorion will be front and center during one of the biggest things we've ever done in Transformers comics."
