Simon Furman and Geoff Senior produce Transformers iPhone comic

by Darren 'Starscream' Jamieson on March 1, 2010

184_8391_transformers-smallTransformers legends Simon Furman and Geoff Senior have put their collective pens and pencils together to produce the first Transformers comic from Titan Publishing to be made available on the iPhone.

What’s more, the iPhone Transformers comic is completely FREE to download and is a taster comic for bigger and better things to come. Titan used the free taster tactic on previous iPhone comics for Shaun the Sheep and Wallace and Gromit.

Simon Furman, as ever, is the man behind the storyline and G1 Transformers comic icon Geoff Senior is drawing the pretty Transformers pictures

Simon Furman commented about the new iPhone comic:

It’s a simply incredible chance for fans of the warring ‘Robots in Disguise’ to experience incredible stories that expand upon and underpin the incredible movie universe.

If you enjoy the free Transformers comic on your iPhone, there’s more where that came from Titan over the next few weeks. They can be purchased from the App stores for UK and Ireland.

This puts Titan in direct competition with IDW Publishing, as they already have Transformers comics available for the iPhone.

Making of ‘New Divide’ Music Video with Linkin Park and Transformers 2

by Darren 'Starscream' Jamieson on June 9, 2009

The main theme to the new Transformers movie, Transformers Revenge of the Fallen, is being released shortly and the music video will be premiered even sooner. The band have a making of video on their MySpace page that shows the special effects being deployed in the video for the single, and even shows some footage from Transformers 2.

The video is being directed by Joe Hahn and looks pretty awesome. The clowning around on wires looks a lot of fun as well!

Stan Bush rerecords The Touch for Transformers 2

by Darren 'Starscream' Jamieson on May 15, 2009

When we first heard this we have to admit, we thought it was a hoax story, or someone had got the wrong end of the stick. But now, rock legend (at least to Transformers fans) Stan Bush has re-recorded a version of the orginal 1986 Transformers Movie’s anthem ‘The Touch’ in the hope that it will be used in the new Transformers sequel, Transformers Revenge of the Fallen.

Fans of the original will know just how inspiring The Touch can be and how it always reminds them of Optimus Prime cutting a swathe through Decepticons. This new, updated, version is very different and even features a rap, but in a good way. Have a watch of the video, which features clips from both Michael Bay Transformers movies, and see what you think.

Transformers Citroen Advert

by Darren 'Starscream' Jamieson on September 28, 2008

This advert is currently running in the UK, featuring a robot walking down the streets of New York, dancing to the tune of Staying Alive, before Transforming into a Citroen car.

I don’t think this as good as the Ice Skating robot that was on the Citroen advert before the Transformers movie came out, but it’s still worth a watch.
