We all pretty much guessed it was coming, but now it’s been confirmed by Chris Ryall. The Transformers Spotlight: Drift will be coming in April 2009, from writer Shane McCarthy and artist Casey Coller.
The cover shown is by Coller, with another coming tomorrow from Joana Lafuente.
Don Murphy’s back with a very long and uninteresting post on his forums, the majority of which has nothing to do with Transformers, but Don’s other projects.
He starts of with the usual movie publicity speak, saying that Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen will be like the first, but with more robots and even more exciting and will entertain you more.
He also states that they are holding off any publicity until the last minuite, like Pirates of the Caribbean. This means we probably won’t get a trailer until March at the earliest.
For all you Simon Furman fans, he’s back this week with The Transformers: Maximum Dinobots #1, his new story arc set in IDW’s Transformers universe, taking place after Transformers: Devastation. Art is by Nick Roche.

Alex Milne has put up his cover for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Movie Prequel: Alliance #2, on his DeviantArt page. The cover features some possible spoilers for the series, and continues a plot thread from The Reign of Starscream, so you’ll have to click the link to see what is going on.
The issue is out in January, written by Chris Mowry, with art by Alex Milne and colours by Josh Perez.
More rumours for you this Sunday, from insider S250, on new characters for season 3 of Transformers: Animated. The description he gives is that they are old, have the following names, A**** T**** and D** A****, and are “close to their G1 version”. Most discussion has picked out Alpha Trion and Dai Atlas as the likely candidates. Astrotrain has been considered, but his name is one word and he isn’t considered old.
We’ll have to see if these fumurs are true.
The Transformers Live Action Movie Blog has posted an interesting image of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Megatron and Ravage. Megatron looks quite different to his first movie appearance, with a bulkier and more solid look, whilst Ravage still has a funky cat like look.
Returning characters from the first movie, Optimus Prime, Ironhide, Bumblebee and Starscream are largely unchanged from their appearances in the first movie.
Simon Furman has taken the time to answer 20 questions put to him by fans. You’ll find discussion about revelation, Expansion and All Hail Megatron, what’s going on with The Thirteen and Beast Wars, and his general thoughts on Transformers and working for IDW.
