After seeing a cover from E.J. Su earlier this week, we now have some confirmed details on what issue it is for.
Editor Denton J. Tipton has confirned that the cover is for The Transformers Spotlight: Jazz. E.J will be doing the art, but the writer hasn’t been revealed yet.
This weeks only new release (Megatron Origin doesn;t count!), Transformers: Animated The Arrival #4, has been given the 5 page preview treatment. Look out for more Bulkhead action with a cameo from Spike, Carley and Daniel.
According to The Digital Bits, who are very reliable with anything to do with the home video format, Paramount will again be releasing Transformers on DVD and Blu-ray in 2009, to coincide with transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, but this time in an extended format.
The most likely length of this new edition will be the Imax version of the film, which added a few needless scenes.
From Paramount, we’re hearing that a Transformers: Extended Edition is planned for DVD and Blu-ray release in 2009, likely timed to coincide with the theatrical release of Bay’s sequel film next summer.
One half of the Auto Assembly team, Simon Plumbe, has confirmed the first of our two voice actors who are to appear at next years convention.
Ian James Corlett, best known as the voice of Beast Wars and Beast Machines Cheetor, as well as the Maximal defence computer Sentinel, will be attending the 2 day UK convention. AA2009 takes place over the weekend of 15-16th August 2009.
Booking for the convention should start soon.
Just one new release this week, with this being Transformers: Animated The Arrival #4, again featuring 2 stories set in the Animated universe.
BULKHEAD is up in arms (or is it servos?) over a gas-guzzling “megavan” created by corporate slimeball Porter C. Powell. Also, DECEPTICON bounty hunter LOCKDOWN searches for “the AUTOBOT who put MEGATRON offline” and stumbles into a surprising and dangerous encounter along the way.
The other Transformers comic this week is the 2nd printing of The Transformers: Megatron Origin TPB, which was originally released in December 2007, and is set early on in the IDW G1 universe.
Chris Ryall has posted the 3 covers for Arrival #4.

Chris Ryall has posted some new art from longtime Transformers artist E.J. Su, a cover from a mysterious future issue.
The inks cover shows Jazz and Razorclaw battling it out with destroyed buildings around them. The only other clue to the issue is that it is coming out in March 09, which means it is unlikely to be an IDW main series, and more likely a Spotlight issue.
ENI have received covers for 2 upcoming Transformers DVDs from Paramount Home Entertainment. These include Transformers: Animated Season Two, containing all 13 episodes, and being released on 6th January 2009, and Transformers Energon The Ultimate Collection, which apparently contains all 52 episodes, and is released on 16th December 2008.
The Animated DVD contains a gallery and few mini featurettes, whilst the Energon has no extra features.
We hope to have some unwatermarked artwork soon.
Todays new material from IDW, The Transformers Spotlight: Blurr, (the other being Marvel UK reprint, Time Wars #4) has been given the 5 page preview treatment from Chris Ryall, and a chance for fans to catch a glimpse of how Blurr has changed since his G1 cartoon days.
On the back of the All Hail Megatron #7 issue sketches, Shane McCarthy has now posted the full colour alternate cover from Casey Coller, who’s debut issue, Spotlight: Blurr, is out today.
From the cover, it seems all is not well with the Autobots.
