Super Lifeform Transformers: Beast Wars Neo (超生命体トランスフォーマー ビーストウォーズネオ Chō Seimeitai Transformer Beast Wars Neo) is a manga series that ran in Comic Bom Bom in Japan from March 1999 to September 1999. It directly follows the Beast Wars II manga, but diverges rather more radically from the animated series, chiefly in its delightfully bizarre depiction of the Neo cast as real animals who were evolved into Transformers by Angolmois Energy. Like the Beast Wars II comic, it was both written and drawn by Shōji Imaki.

The collected editions include four supplemental text stories, three taking place during #6 and the last taking place after #7. They are:

• "Break Through! The Polar Bear Raging Claw Fist!"
• "To Jellyfish with Love! Cry Out, Stampy Blade"
• "The Great Escape! Graviton Prison!"
• "What Became of the Five...."
