This is a revamped design for the official title logo of my fan-made Transformers continuity--Transformers Beyond, also known as the Beyondverse.

A lot of you already know that I've been a big fan of the Transformers franchise since I was a little kid. Despite some hits and misses with recent installments in the series, I still enjoy seeing the characters, locations, and action-packed fights that I grew up with and love reading about the lore of each series, which led me wanting to make my own Transformers series for a while. Long while. This particular concept of mine goes back to my childhood, when I was 8, I think. Though there had been recent setbacks as I had rewrite and redo some stuff. I realized that I'll soon be completing "Transformers Beyond: Legendarium" at the time of this writing, I thought that this will be a good time to redo the concept designs, starting with the title logo.

------

The Beyondverse kind of functions as a full reboot, essentially "how I would do Transformers." This new world takes elements from all over the franchise, but the major inspirations are the Marvel G1 continuity that started it all back in 1984 and ended in 1991, the original IDW G1 continuity that ran from 2005 to 2018, the Japanese G1 cartoon continuity, the Unicron Trilogy, the live-action "Bayformers" movie series, Transformers Animated, and the Aligned continuity.

Beyond plays host to not just an assortment of Transformers elements, but also from various other franchises as well to expand the universe. And I just don't mean Hasbro/Takara-related properties like G.I. Joe, Diaclone, Micronauts, Rom Spaceknight, M.A.S.K., Visionaries, Jem and the Holograms, Action Man, or even My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Here you'll find many references to series like Ben 10, Doctor Who, Mobile Suit Gundam, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Robotech, Godzilla, Ultraman, Kamen Rider, Super Sentai/Power Rangers, Voltron, Zoids, Super Robot Wars, Bionicle, Warhammer 40K, Ace Combat, Patlabor, Earth Defense Force 2025, the works of H.P. Lovecraft, and even the Marvel Cinematic Universe; things that you don’t usually find in a Transformers story unless its a crossover or some sort (or a fanfiction, but that goes unsaid). Things can get crazy at times, but I make sure to keep everything grounded and in control, and in line with the current Transformers flavor.

The way I would handle the story is that I would divide it into 3 segments, similar to "Phase 1" and "Phase 2" of the IDW comics. I'll just call them sagas. The sagas focus on certain periods of Cybertronian history, each of them named an important Cybertronian artifact: the AllSpark, the Creation Matrix of Leadership, and Vector Sigma. The AllSpark Saga will be mostly based on Earth and is concerned with the war between the Autobots and the Decepticons. The Matrix Saga is based on Cybertron and is a mixture of Cybertron's pre-war history and the early days of the Great War. The Vector Sigma Saga focuses on what happens when the Great War has ended, possibly leading to the era of the Maximals and the Predacons. Elements from each saga will be mentioned or appear in the others to further tie-in the long-running story.

The title logo's design is mostly based off of the gray, 3D-like font for the movies and my own wording, down below it, with electrical veins appearing on the words.

Above is the classic main promotional caption. On either side of the "Beyond" part of logo are both factional insignias--including the G2 versions and the insignias of the Maximals and the Predacons--as this series will go through all of Cybertronian history, which spans for about 10 billion years ago.

More to come in the near future!
