This Thursday marks the release of Titan Magazine’s Transformers #13, completing the Twilight’s Last Gleaming story. Also in the magazine is confirmation that Titan will soon be producing a Transformers: Animated comic series, exclusively for the UK.
No specific dates on when it will start or what sort of stories we can expect, but Simon Furman will be posting more on his blog later this week, hopefully with some details.
With the release of The Transformers Spotlight: Cyclonus this week, Simon Furman has provided details on what goes on in the issue, and provides some questions to how this first part of the Revelation Saga fits in within the continuity.
But, as well as being part 1 of 4, it’s also a Spotlight, and the character focus falls, first and foremost, on Cyclonus. But who is IDW/TF-verse Cyclonus? Given the recent IDW reinvention of Galvatron (in Spotlight Galvatron) it can’t be the animated movie version (as there’s no Unicron)
Artist Chris Mowry has updated his blog with a release date for his current series work, Transformers Movie Sequel: The Reign of Starscream #3 for 16th July. The title was originally due for June.
Also in the post is a postcard from Cybertron, “Wishing you were here”, but actually requesting help. It seems nothing changes on that planet.
IDW Editor Denton Tipton has posted one of the covers for The Transformers: All Hail Megatron #3, due for release in September. The inked page, featuring Starscream and Megatron, is drawn by Guido Guidi, who is also on art duties for the entire series.
Be on the look out for AHM #1 next month.
Titan Comics have updated their website with full details of what is included in their next issue of Transformers.
Issue #13 will conclude the current story arc with Twilight’s Last Gleaming #5 and the finish the two stories from the IDW printed material, Transformers Movie Prequel and Beast Wars The Gathering. There will also be a 16 page pull-out on Transformers: Animated, featuring comic strips, features, posters and profiles, as well as the usual features included in every issue and a Shoot ‘Em Up disc launcher.
Finally, they have provided the cover art featuring Megatron on the front. Look out for the issue on 19th June across the UK.
Artist Alex Milne has updated his DeviantArt page with the fully coloured cover (without logos) of IDW’s Transformers Movie Sequel: The Reign of Starscream #3. The cover features Starscream and Arcee and a bit of Cliffjumper as well.
Issue #3 is due for release in July. Issue #2 came out last week.
Artist Dario Brizuela has posted some more pencil sketches from the new Transformers: Animated comic, Transformers: Animated Arrival.
On show are pages 4, 12 and 19 and show similar scenes to the series première, “Transform and Roll Out!”. Dario previously posted pages. 11, 15 and 18.
The first issue is released in August from IDW Publishing.
Just 2 Transformers comics released this week, and they are Transformers: Best of UK: Space Pirates #4, a reprint of the Marvel UK story (total of 5 issues) and Transformers Movie Sequel: The Reign of Starscream #2, which continues the stories after the Transformers movie. Here is the official description of the issue.
The official continuation of the blockbuster TRANSFORMERS movie continues here! In part two, “To Be King”, STARSCREAM’s machinations on Mars move forward… but they also catch the vigilant eyes of a team of AUTOBOTS, and the battle begins! The AUTOBOTS, however, will soon learn that STARSCREAM is not alone… co-writers Chris Ryall (Transformers Movie Prequel) and Chris Mowry, along with artist Alex Milne (Transformers Movie Adaptation) continue their tale that explains, expounds upon and expands the world of the TRANSFORMERS movie! Ask your retailer how to get a variant cover by James Raiz, too!
Simon Furman has updated his blog to with a follow-up to his script wrap for Aftermath part 1 and 2 with news of the artist for those issues, Gary Erskine. As a bonus, he has also provided two pages from the issues.
Aftermath Parts 1 and 2 make up issues #14 and #15 of Titan’s Transformers UK comic series, due out in July and August.
In a post about visiting 2D festival, Simon Furman has confirmed that Nick Roche is working on Maximum Dinobots with himself, but also that the series will be 5 issues long.
Nick Roche (who’s gearing up to draw the upcoming 5-issue Maximum Dinobots series)
The original number of issues between Revelations and All Hail Megatron was to be 8, so this means that there are only 3 issues left to fill in after Maximum Dinobots. Where these issues are 3 Spotlights, a self-contained arc, or a prequel to All Hail Megatron is unknown.
