With fans started to get onboard the All Hail Megatron train, writer Shane McCarthy has discussed the reaction to the series with Comic Book Resources, as well as the design concept for the new character Drift.
Also included in the article are the cover for issue #8, plus a couple of unreleased pages and concept art for a new design for Perceptor.
Time for a blast from the recent past, with the reprint of Dreamwave’s Transformers Armada Volume 1 TPB, collecting issues #1-6 of the series.
The comic takes the story in a different direction to the cartoon, so is worth picking up if you cannot stand the animated series. The book is drawn by James Raiz and written by Chris Sarracini.
Chris Ryall again has the cover for your viewing pleasure.
After a teaser post in September, Chris Mowry has now provided more confirmation on what will be included in the Transformers: The Reign of Starscream TPB, due out on 19th November.
The 152 page book will collect all 5 issues, and a whole host of bonus material. There will be 33 character bios, a cover gallery with unpublished concepts, 11 pages of “never-before-seen sketches and designs by Alex Milne”, and a commentary by Chris himself, pointing out the easter eggs and other references.
Following on from the North American release on Tuesday, the UK can today sample the Transformers: Animated action on their Nintendo DS.
Look out for platforming action with driving segments for all four Autobots (minus Ratchet). The game is rated 7+ by Pegi, which means it is only sensible for children of ages 7 and up.
Titan Magazine’s first Transformers: Animated comic is out today, exclusively in the UK. The issue contains an 11-page story titled “Burnout”, and introducing a brand new character in the Animated universe, Sideswipe. The issue is written by Simon Furman, who has also commented on the release on his blog, with art drawn by John McCrea, and colour by Kat Nicholson.
There’s also the usual puzzles, competitions, letters and free gift.
Good and bad news Aussie fans, Paramount are going to continue releasing Transformers: Animated on DVD in volumes in Australia, with Volumes 2 and 3 completing the first season. This is good for people who bought the first volume, but bad for most of who want full season sets.
Like the first volume (Blast from the Past), volume 2 will be subtitled Lost and Found”, whilst volume 3 is called “Megatron Rising”. It isn’t clear which volume will contain 4 or 5 episodes.
Transformers: Animated Volume 2 – Lost and Found (R4 Australia) – 29th December 2008
Transformers: Animated Volume 3 – Megatron Rising (R4 Australia) – 15th January 2009
Be sure to keep up-to-date with out Transformers DVD section.
Denton J. Tipton has also updated his blog today, not with a post, but an update to this sidebar, which contains IDW’s Transformers comic schedule.
The only addition is that The Transformers: All Hail Megatron #5 will be coming out on 26th November, and given the quality shown so far, we recommend you pick it up.
Chris Ryall has posted a new cover on his blog and in the process revealed the next series of Marvel UK reprints from IDW. Again coming under the “Best of UK” subtitle, the next series will be City of Fear, following on from current series, Time Wars. The cover is drawn and coloured by Andrew Griffith.
Given that the January 09 previews are already out, The Transformers Best of UK: City of Fear is expected to start in February or March next year.
