I'm beyond confused with everything as it is. I have the spotlights, AHM v1 and Devastation et all so this as nothing do with any of that? For that matter do I need to read Maximum Dinobots or does that not fit with any of the spotlights/-ation stories? | The ongoing is firmly rooted in the previous continuity. It may not involve every single plot thread from what came before, but all of that stuff is still entirely relevant to this series.
Maximum Dinobots is part of the same continuity as well, as well as the upcoming Bumblebee and Wreckers series.
All the flailing cries of "reboot" is the usual fandom over-reaction machine working overtime. Reboot means the previous issues never happened, and that is very much not the case. It's just a new direction, which is something that happens when a new creative team takes over.  | |

Hell, Stormbringer clearly showed that Cybertron was currently uninhabitable even to Transformers and then the 1st time we see the Autobots in AHM they are walking around on Cybertron with no problems.
Now we are being given another time gap and character redesigns. It's not too hard to imagine the dropped and contradictory plot elements are far behind. Xbox Live :Adam Smasher | |

As far as the first ongoing issue series, I think it just refers to it being called Transformers #1, #2, etc. without the subtitles et al.
Why are they making a press release now when they could have had one back at Comic Con?
Not sure I like the new direction Don's going with the designs, but I'll wait and see on this and the "new" ongoing series... Latest scores: ROTF Grindor & Long Haul
