    So it appears Nefarious is about Soundwave and Minions vs. The Autobots! That alone makes it worth $4!!

    Just reading that blurb about the Bumblebee series will make me stay away from it. Bumblebee as leader of the Autobots? Cliche, unbelievable and convenient at the same time.

    The rest seem worth a look, save the best of the UK. Not interested in paying 20.00 for something I read as a child...

    Prey is one of the best UK stories IMO. I'll pre-order a copy of the TPB from Amazon right now. As for the rest, I will have to wait for the eventual Wreckers, Bumblebee and ongoing TPBs before reading those stories, can't really justify paying shipping to Sweden for a 32 page comic filled with ads.

    The Wreckers mini-series looks promising, enough that I might decide that the above doesn't apply to it after all. Couldn't care less for Animated and RotF, but with four interesting releases in a month, who am I to complain?

    I love Motormaster's design along with the rest of the Stunticons. It would be cool if they all combined into Menasor, but I highly doubt that will happen.

    I've not really been following the ongoing, but why wouldn't they combine?
