Empire speak with di Bonaventura
Empire Online managed to chat with Lorenzo di Bonaventura at Comic-Con about the Transformers movie and how they are trying to make a cool movie but please the fans at the same time
“We’re really wary to show them until we’ve done the work,” he said. “We’re spending a lot of money at ILM and it takes a long time, and we’re doing CG animation on their faces. We don’t want to show them before they’re ready to show, and that’s going to be close to release.”

IDW Panel at San Diego Comic Con
IDW Publishing had a panel at Comic Con (obviously), and provided some details on their next projects.
Transformers Escalation, the sequel to Transformers Ilfiltration, will begin in November 2006.
The Spotlight series will continue after Shockwave with Nightbeat, then Hot Rod, and Six Shot and probably some other characters after that. These stories will be part of the Escalation universe.
IDW Editor Chris Ryall also mentioned that IDW plans to write a story, most likely a prequel, to coinside with Paramount’s Transformers movie. More details will be announced later this year.
The 1986 movie will also be receiving an adaptation from Bob Budiansky, write of many of the 80s Transformers comics.
A gallery of the panel can be seen at Comics News International.
