In 1984, Marvel UK's {{TF|Sheila_Cranna|Sheila Cranna}} accepted Kazybrid's humour strip into ''[[The Transformers]]''. In concession to the book's theme, Kazybrid's characters went on more space adventures with robots than they would in the newspaper. With Humph stepping into a larger protagonist role, this new incarnation of the comic was named '''''Matt and the Cat'''''.<ref>[http://mychailokazybrid.blogspot.com/2007/01/its-november-1984.html "It's November 1984..." on the Humph the Cat Blogspot]</ref> It was first published in [[The Transformers issue 5|issue 5]], and ran until [[The Transformers issue 73|issue 73]] in 1986, with only a few interruptions – though its last strip left off with something of an abrupt cliffhanger.
This was not the end for breakout character Humph, and he would appear in his own 23-page sequel story online in 2010.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20130504040529/http://mychailokazybrid.blogspot.com/ Humph the Cat Blogspot (archived, 2013)]</ref> In 2011, Kazybrid would post a four page prequel to that story that directly referenced the ''Transformers'' cliffhanger and set Humph up in the city of Shefferham, home to another Kazybrid creation, Do-Do Man.<ref>"Humph the Cat in Shefferham" [https://kazybridscharactercreation.blogspot.com/2011/09/humph-cat-in-shefferham.html introduction], [https://kazybridscharactercreation.blogspot.com/2011/09/humph-cat-in-shefferham-page-1.html page 1], [https://kazybridscharactercreation.blogspot.com/2011/09/humph-cat-in-shefferham-page-2.html page 2], [https://kazybridscharactercreation.blogspot.com/2011/09/humph-cat-in-shefferham-page-2_06.html page 3], and [https://kazybridscharactercreation.blogspot.com/2011/09/humph-cat-in-shefferham-page-4.html page 4] on Mychailo Kazybrid's Character Creation</ref> By 2015, the sequel story was removed from Kazybrid's blog<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20150720205441/http://mychailokazybrid.blogspot.com/ Humph the Cat Blogspot (archived, 2015)]</ref> (save previews of pages 5 and 6
