And this will be the second IDW issue I buy both covers of. The first was Ascending #1.

And Break FTW!

thanks tim....i'm totally going with the non show characters cover....

Loved it! Foster and I will both be satisfied, as Break has a line or two in the book. He's also involved in one of the best lines of the issue, regarding the rumor of where he shoots snowballs out of (HAHAHA).

Several other thoughts...
- Loving the Cybertronian looks of Big Convoy. I'll take two toys of that, please.
- Gotta love The Pack. They have fun in and out of the battle. From the Break/snowball scene on the ship to Apache enjoying tearing Insecticon a new one.
- Poor Razorbeast. You get trapped on Earth by saving the day, unofficially take up a leadership position on Earth, feel good about finally getting rescued when The Pack shows up....and then you get infected with Angolmois. Ouch.

That's what i did too, it was too hard to decide on which cover of Ascending #1 so i bought both. Can't wait till #2 shows up here!

lovin this story! it's progressing really quick, but it's a lot of fun. love the line about break and snowballs. laughed at the bugs bunny look they gave stampy when he was talking with mach kick in the ship. we really need a new bw line of all cybertronian modes. they're freakin amazing! liked seeing the magnaboss team there. kinda gave off a tripredacus feel, though, with how close they are to each other in that room

i'm curious as to who shokaract's other agents will be besides the blendtrons and antagony and the others we saw in a preview cover, since they mentioned him having more out there. also was a little taken back at how quickly ravage turned away from his own agenda. the future must be really bad

The Pack captures a lot of the Beast Wars vibe! There is epic comedy in Transformers with animal alt modes that BW at its best did so well. This series captures that again with characters like Stampy, Break, and Lio Convoy with his Mighty Mane Missiles. Buy why is Break left aboard ship? Does Razorbeast not offer valet parking?

The story's shaping up well. I'm not well-versed in the plots of BWII and BWN, even though I have nearly completed both toy lines. Glad I don't need to learn Japanese and watch those shows to enjoy The Ascending.

I'll have to dig out my ugly-assed Injector toy because he gets a really well-done spotlight here as Rartorata. Would that more of Unicron's heralds/minions be as freaking HORRID!

just make sure you're not confusing injector and rartorata. they are definetly different guys. injector was in that fight scene in robot mode, so people could be confused. just look for the angolmois presence

and someone always has to get left behind. how else are they gonna get picked up by the ship?
