Do you think we'll finally be able to open up a comic and see these two together and development of their special bond?
Apparently never.

Unless they've lurked here and know about you, I don't see any reason why Zandar will even be in the new comics at all. He's such a minor character in a cast with at least FIVE HUNDRED characters. I'd be surprised if any more that a dozen or two characters even get speaking roles.
Years back, there was a very vocal and obnoxious Transformers fan that thought he was a big shot. He's probably still around. He thought he was hot shit cause he "created" a personality for an obscure Japanese repaint in his webcomic, and then thought that gave him the clout to call himself a legitimate "Transformers creative." Someone at IDW was aware of his annoying behavior online and trolled him by having "his" character get mercilessly killed in the background of a panel. If anyone from Skybound reads these forums, you run the risk of having them troll you in a similar fashion by either making sure they're not twins, or making them twins and then having him get shot in the head or something. Which would be better...for Skybound to ignore Zandar completely or for them to intentionally troll you by desecrating his character in print? |

If you want a specific story element then write your own fan fiction, like many people do across various fandoms, or get someone else to write it for you. Problem solved. |

And in the rare chance they're written, it's never together, or they're depicted as squabbling siblings. Enough. It's all been done already. Except exploring their special bond.

Hang on. Devil’s Due had Zandar as a recurring character and even put him in the COIL with Serpentor.
So what you’re saying is inaccurate and purposefully misleading. |

Because I don't. Same shit, different creative team. Sorry Skybound, but I'm very easy to please, just that no creative team will ever go there. You?re not easy to please. You?re only happy if you get exactly what you want. That?s far from being easy to please. |

Creative teams over the past 20 years have had ZERO vision for these two characters. In some cases they don't even have any meaningful interaction with each other, and they're twins!
And in the rare chance they're written, it's never together, or they're depicted as squabbling siblings. Enough. It's all been done already. Except exploring their special bond. https://www.skybound.com/careers

I dropped their books over their mishandling of Zarana mainly. Zandar got more character development than she did.

Why not brush up on your creative talents, write a story and submit it? These types of "changes" you're looking for seldom happen from outside pressure unless it's cancel culture, so the best course of action is work your way inside and then show them what you can do. Worst they can say is no, right?
