    No Circuit Breaker I can understand, but no Neo Knights?

    I've been hoping for YEARS Mr. Wildman could find the unused cover sketch they did for the Neo Knights limited series that never came about. I've seen the sketch since then, but I REALLY wanted to see the NK's a final time, just to find out what happens with them and what happened to Josie after 75.

    I guess a reference is better than nothing.

    The Neo Knights would be in their forties by the modern day the comic is set in (twenty years later).

    So?

    Just cause they're older doesn't mean what happened to them after #80 is any less revelent.

    They were a unique addition to the Transformers universe and they deserve to at least have their story given a proper conclusion if they're not going to be activly used in the series.

    The Neo Knights were corny. I am glad that much comic panel space won't be wasted on them.

    Wait, based on the Q&A, it sounds like he's NOT doing the 20-year jump... At least that's the impression I'm getting.

    My only fear right now is that he'll feel compelled to kill off beloved characters toward the end again like in G2... (Nightbeat! Noooooo!)

    So has that ended the debate on who Cyclonus was?
