IDW transformers comic dub, season 1

IDW transformers comic dub, season 1

Project Overview

Welcome to my first ever big project: season one of what I hope will be a full dubbing of the IDW1 Transformers comics! Season one of this project will cover Megatron Origin, the Autocracy-Monstrosity-Primacy trilogy, and a few Spotlights. This is the early war years, taking place on Cybertron, setting the stage for what's to come.

If this project is enjoyable then I'll be moving on with season two, which will have its own audition set.

Something to note about the -acy trilogy is that it was originally a flashback, and several of my friends have called it the "cameo power hours"- a bunch of characters show up, and they have approximately 1.7 lines each. All of the characters listed here either show up in more than one comic/episode OR have at least three lines- but for some of these characters those lines are IT. So don't be afraid to throw your hat in for multiple characters! There are even more one and two liners to be given out from the crop of VAs that are cast from this audition.

This project will have a discord and I'd love for you to join but it's not a necessity. USB mics are okay. Please don't slate. Deadline very likely to be extended!

Latest Updates

  • Reopened!

    Alright! We are back in business! :) The project is open again with a new, further away deadline- January 18th!

    "Aw man! I didn't get picked :( Does this mean my audition sucked and I'm not going to be in the project?" It doesn't mean that at all! I got a lot of good auditions. But, I think there are more amazing auditions to come from those who may have been too busy in the late December season to audition the first time around.

    For those of you who have already auditioned, I'd like to let you know there are three new shiny roles for you to try out for! Omega Supreme, Metroplex, and Pentilus. Omega Supreme is an ancient guardian of Cybertron, loyal to the Prime and the Prime alone. Metroplex is a very rare city former who holds the key to spacebridge technology, something the Decepticons want very badly. Pentilus is a Quintesson with a goal of destruction and tricks Megatron into allying with him. I forgot about those guys the first time around. Oops!

  • Thank you for all of your auditions! (but some of them are missing)

    Hi all! Thank you so much for all of your wonderful auditions! I wish I can say I've listened to every single one but, for some reason, four auditions aren't appearing in my dashboard! :( Comparing my project dashboard to the public page, the ones not appearing are for Ironhide, Optimus, Slinger, Starscream, Soundwave, and Swindle. (there are six characters listed here because there's actually seven auditions missing. I was able to go to my personal dashboard and found three "misfired" auditions- one was clearly a warmup for Optimus, and two were auditions for other projects that were sent to this one in error. While the Optimus was obvious, I'm not sure who the other two misfired and then deleted auditions are for, so I just listed all six mismatched characters.)

    If you auditioned for one of or more of these roles and then decided 'Hm, actually, maybe not' and deleted it, then that's perfectly fine, you don't have to do anything. If you did audition for one of these roles and you do want me to see your audition, then you should probably double check that it can be seen by a person who is NOT you! I'd hate for a great audition to go unheard because of some Technological Hiccup.

    As we get this straightened out, I'll be spending time going through the auditions that I can see and make my shortlists/cast some folks. From there, I'll relaunch this after Christmas... with a few new roles I forgot about the first time around! Oops.

    If you'd like feedback on your audition, let me know, and I'll let you know what I like, and what I think could be improved (some auditions I feel particularly strong about are getting that anyway!)

    And lastly, I hope you're having a lovely holiday season with your family and friends :)

Role assigned to: The Quiet Bard

Megatron, leader of the Deceptions! This Pre War and early years Megatron doesn't have quite the darkness in his voice that we know from Prime or the live action movies, though it is still deep. I would like him to have an accent similar to, but does not have to be an exact match to, that of his Earthspark incarnation. Transformers: EarthSpark | Megatron's Best Moments | Animation | Transformers Official You can go to the :45 mark and the 1:28 mark to hear him talk. Scottish, Welsh, Irish. British Isles excluding England. Masculine voice.


I'm splitting this role into two, the "authentic" Megatron and the "warlord" Megatron. This is the first one. This Megatron is a poet, writer, and sort of a philosopher. Up until very recently, he was a pacifist! He sounds shockingly normal, and has minimal growl in his voice.


"warlord" Megatron- what we see in seasons two, three, and four, should they get made- will be closer to the TFP and Live action Megatron we all are familiar with and love. But this is not those seasons, it is season one, and this Megatron is not yet the larger than life evil legend he will become.
