    -Spotlight: Grimlock
    -Spotlight: Mirage (Two Spotlights?)
    -Best of the U.K: Space Pirates #1
    -The Transformers: Focus On Decepticons ($3 "preview" issue, not $4 like most IDW comics)


    Both of the spotlights sound particularly interesting.

    Not a huge month with the number of releases, but I'll eagerly be anticipating this month.

    Two Spotlights and that preview issue that will set the tone for the rest of 2008. Nice to know the movie sequel comics are still on their way too.

    Mirage? That'll be interesting.

    And it looks like Grimlock is going to be going up again Magnus's old foe.

    A Grimlock solo story by Furman is a must read, and a Spotlight issue for Mirage is like a dream come true!

    YES!! Scorponok in the Grimlock Spotlight!!! That just made my day. Scorpy's one of my favorite G1 characters (mostly thanks got Marvel G1, though this one won't be anything like him) and it's great to know he'll be in something soon. I'm still hoping for him to show up in the current series!

    You caught him in the Ultra Magnus Spotlight, right? If not, it's a good read.

    Cool. Although I can't keep track of releases months in advance--but Mirage is the perfect character for a spotlight. Better'n Ramjet anyways.
