I like the dinos.

Hasbro don't make 'em like they used to. Thanks to aricosaur!

Awesome!!!
I'll pick it up as soon as it pops in my comics book store. I like the drawings, but I kinda dislike Shockey's long ears.

Hmm......Grimlock seems to be lacking his old speech problem here.

Still....cool to see them again. Look forward to seeing them in full organic Dino mode.

Be interesting if he gets it as a result of this story... but maybe Simon's decided on a fresh start that's closer to the original comic Dinobots.

That Autobot shuttle reminds me of something, but I'm not sure what.

Looks like they've got (or are based on) Don's designs to start with, yup.

Nice work on the image mirroring, whoever does that good stuff.

The art is funky, but in a good way. Who's the artist?

I dig. IDW's been nothing but good since they got the license. Yes, I'm including Infiltration too (I loved it ). I like that they seem to let more of the artist's style come through more than DW did, witch seemed to have more of a "house style".

Not to bash DW's TFs. I loved everything they did too.
But kudos to IDW. I'll be getting this.

Nick Roche. He's been doing the covers for Generations, I think. Nobody knows him because nobody buys Generations.

I have to admit, this is really intriguing. I love the one shot format. There have not been enough of them in recent years, to my way of thinking. Being able to pick up one issue and read a single self contained story has great appeal, and they can still reference and pad out your ongoing broader story arcs, which it appears they may be doing here.
