I believe after Maximum Dinobots he's off IDW's G1 series (which McCarthy has taken over) and will be instead writing The Thirteen and Revenge of the Fallen's adaptation. http://www.tfwiki.net, the Transformers Wiki - Serious intellectual discussion about transforming space robots.

He has his faults, but you can't question his contribution. IDW are taking a BIG risk... My Mate just said he "cant deal with that now!!" |

That doesn't mean they won't do another miniseries later, though, since this first miniseries IS subtitled "The Arrival", after all.

I just read All Hail #4 and enjoyed it a lot, and it sounds as though the final act is going to kick into a higher gear if that thing is appearing. Quote: |

Could this be it? It's a pulse-pounding issue as the identity of the traitor is finally revealed and not all of the Autobots survive the experience."
Knowing McCarthy, "The Swarm" is a bunch of Insecticon clones. I'd be really surprised if he'd use anything "furmanesque".
Omnibus is a bummer. Darn Pat Lee, why won't he finally sell the rights of TWW vol. 3 to IDW? I WANT to know the end of that story! What happened to Prime? What were the Quints after? What about Flash? ARgh.  My sales/trades (lots European exclusives!) |

I'd be more incensed if i was actually reading it... "all the slammin' shorties in the house say "yeah!""

They had such potential. So sad.
