Simon Furman has completed the script for Transformers Spotlight: Hardhead, the second issue in the Revelation saga.
In this script wrap, Simon gives details on the issue being a sort of sequel to Transformers Spotlight: Nightbeat, the second Spotlight issue, released back in October 2006. There is also confirmation on the thrid Spotlight being about Doubledealer.
Transformers Spotlight: Hardhead is released in July, written by Simon Furman, with art by Nick Roche.
With the announcement and confirmation of Transformers Revelations and Transformers: All Hail Megatron last month, also came a bit of confusion. All Hail Megatron is set 1 year after Revelations and that there is an 8 issues worth of material set between the series. It isn’t known if it is one 8 issue series or a couple of series.
In is comments section, Simon Furman has teased the next title, Transformers Maximum. What does this mean, we don’t know. It could be the rumoured The 13 series or something new.
Using IDW’s numbering for the series, here is how it is set out:
Inflitration – #0-6
Stormbringer – #7-10
Escalation – #11-16
Devastation – #17-22
Revelation – #23-26
Unknown Series (Maximum?) – #27-34
All hail Megatron – #35-46
Japanese online store AmiAmi has posted images of Transformers Encore #10 Omega Supreme.
The images show both robot and base modes, with a slight look at the new remoulded face through his visor.

IDW Editor Denton J. Tipton is at it again, this time with a preview for Transformers Spotlight: Grimlock.
The inked versions of the first 4 pages have already been released, but now the first 5 are in full colour.
Transformers Spotlight: Grimlock is out on 23rd April with art by Marcelo Matere and written by Grimlock’s biggest fan, Simon Furman.
Newsarama have interviewed IDW writer Shane McCarthy, who is currently working on the 12 issue series Transformers: All Hail Megatron.
McCarthy confirms that the series will be set a year after the events of The Transformers: Revelations series, and will take the continuity in a new direction. He also poses the ultimate question “How will the rest of the world react to the fall of America?”, which we probably all the know the real answer.
The whole interview can be found here, and if you want a preview of the first issue, check out Transformers: Focus On Decepticons, which is out this week.
There are only 2 Transformers comic releases this week, with the first being a reprint and the second being a preview comic for IDW’s upcoming Transformers titles this summer.
Transformers: Best of the UK Space Pirates #2 continues the Marvel UK reprints, this time with the Space Pirates story. Issues #1 was released last month.
Transformers: Focus on Depecticons is a preview issue that contains an 8 page preview of the first issue of Transformers: All Hail Megatron, that starts in July. There is also some extra material, but this hasn’t been confirmed.
IDW Publishing Editor Denton J. Tipton has posted the first piece of art from Transformers Spotlight: Hardhead. The issue is due for release in July and is the second part of the Revelation arc, following on from Spotlight: Cyclonus in June.
The art is by Nick Roche, and not Robby Musso as has been previously stated, with writing by Simon Furman.
Having already had Sky Lynx and the upcoming Omega Supreme in the Encore line, TakaraTomy have continued their rare Transformers g1 reissues with Encore #11 and #12.

Encore #12 will be another rare G1 figure, Metroplex. The 1986 figure will cost slightly more at $84.99 and will arrive a month later in September 2008 release.
After months of wondering exactly Transformers: Focus on Decepticons was, we finally have a better idea, with Chris Ryall posting some details, and a preview page, on his blog. There is also the cover for the issue.
The issue is a preview book, with an 8 page preview of issue 1 of the Transformers All Hail Megatron series, which starts in July. Luckily, Chris has also posted a 1 page preview, featuring some characters who haven’t appeared in this continuity yet, so spoilers are coming.
