Ballpoint is having a new adventure, and it’s a doozy. Transformers: Worst Bot Ever – Bot Swap is the second book in the graphic novel series by writer Brian “Smitty” Smith (Pea, Bee, and Jay) and artist Marz Jr. (Void Rivals). From YA and Middle Grade imprint Skybound Comet in collaboration with Image Comics and Hasbro, it will be in stores in June 2026.

Ballpoint, the reformed Decepticon, is trying to adjust to life with his new Autobot friends. Unfortunately, a major mistake happens with an experimental weapon, and he swaps bodies with a Decepticon. But not just any Decepticon – he switches bodies with the fearsome leader, Megatron. Ballpoint may finally receive the acceptance he has longed for, while Megatron is stuck inside the small body of the Worst Bot Ever.

“I’m absolutely thrilled to deliver more adventures of the bot with the biggest ego (and even bigger heart),” Smith said. “Ballpoint has made an immediate impact with Transformers fans of all ages, you’re gonna want to buckle up for this next ride!”

“What have you gotten yourself into this time Ballpoint?!” Marz Jr. added. “I’m pumped to be bringing back the lovable rascal for another wacky adventure!”

Also coming soon from Skybound Comet is the upcoming release of Pizza Witch by Saran Graley (Glitch) and Stef Purenins (Our Super Adventure) that releases in September. Additional 2025 releases are Clementine Book Three, the finale of the YA trilogy by Tillie Walden, and Family Force V, Matt Braley’s story about an alien fighting family.

“Your favorite new Transformers bot is back!” Skybound Editorial Director Alex Antone said. “We’re thrilled to continue Ballpoint’s misadventures with a body-swapping tale guaranteed to delight Transformers fans of all-ages. You’ve never seen Megatron like this before!”

Transformers: Worst Bot Ever – Bot Swap! will arrive in comic shops on June 30, 2026.
