After teasing us with Terminator related interviews all week, Simon Furman has finally sat down and talked about Transformers (yah!). CNI caught up with him and discussed all sorts about Transformers, from the current IDW series, to working for Dreamwave and Marvel to the Movie Prequel.

There are some spoilers relating to the IDW series and how the Spotlights fit in, so only read if you don’t mind.

CNI Who is your favorite Transformers character and why?Furman I hate this question, because the answer is always Grimlock and everyone always groans. I just love borderline, conflicted characters. You (and the reader) never know what they�re going to do next! But, I�ve taken pains to sideline Grimlock (so far) in the Infiltration/Escalation/Devastation-verse, so I am coming to appreciate other characters.
