Having spent the last few days in San Diego, at the comic con, I thought I'd be the first to let you know what lies in store for Transformers.
1st up on Thursday it was announced that Simon Furman would be continuing the Movie story line with TF:Nefarious. A 6 part story coming straight from the end of ROTF.
2nd up what we all expected the ongoing G1 TF series, set to start in November.
3rd up a 4 part series about Bumblebee, which will pitch him a fight against Skywarp. To be released in December.
Finally TF:The Last Stand of the Wreakers, a mini to come out in January.
I'm looking forward to the lot.
Now I'm of to bed, just got back from the hotel bar.

This question is aimed at Steve: Are you going to offer a subscription for the ongoing? Also, does anyone think the Wreckers mini will tie into Spotlight Wheelie and feature the Quintessons?

Thanks for this zedebo. I've been to San Diego a couple of times (though not to the comic con) and love it there - i'm jealous! Hope you had a good time tho.
Chrisp500 I will be offering subscriptions to all of the above just as soon as an early solicitation and cover images become available. A Nefarious sub will be appearing on the site in the next day or so. The Wreckers mini sounds interesting, the Bumblebee story sounds a little superfluous (better to incorporate it into the ongoing surely?) and I hope Furman is writing as much of the G1 stuff as possible. I get the impression he's shifted across to Movie continuity lately.

Cheers Steve, I was quite lucky to be San Diego with work at the same time as the Comic Con Monday-Thursday work, Friday at the convention. A good time was had by all!
Mike Costa is going to be writing the ongoing series, he's the author of the Starscream story in AHM#13. It does look like Furman is turning his attentions to the movieverse, he's doing Tales of the Fallen, Nefarious and the UK comics.
On the subject of Tales of the Fallen, it has come my attention that it's 6 parts and not 5 as is on the subs page.

Thanks for the heads-up. I noticed that as well amid the recent announcements. IDW did something similar with the Revenge of Starscream movie-series, first saying it would be four parts and then increasing to five... thereby stuffing up my subs! I'm going to amend the order page tonight. By the way peoples you can now order a TF Ongoing six month sub here - www.oneshallstand.com/shop/ongoing/issue1.html |
