Icespark:
Hello everyone,
Denton J. Tipton has posted on his blog a 5-page preview of the reign of Starscream. I thought that those who enjoy the comics might like to know.
Here is a link to his blog with the pictures:

I do wonder if he spelled reign as rain on purpose.
EDIT: Alex Milne has higher-res images of these pages, sans text, so you can get a nice good look at the panels by going to his
Deviant Art page.
Optimus747:
I think it's cool that the Autobots and Decepticons actually have ships, like in Ghosts of Yesterday. It seems more convenient for them to be able to use a big space transport like that for long-distance travel, then use their protoform "comet" modes for shorter-distance voyaging.
Maximo Prime:
that is COOL...who's that bot in a coffinesque thingy at the bottom of page 2, not counting the cover?
SmokescreenGT:
Story's pretty good so far. Seems like this will be a little bit of a prequel as well as a sequel to the movie. And the appearance of Prowl made me giddy. I hope he turns up in TF2.
Magelite:
"Simfur"?
Looks nice so far, but I worry about RoS conflicting with TF2. Nothing more annoying than an awesome story rendered non-canon.
Darth Rodimus:
Did you guys see Cosmos there with prowl?
I wonder is that red autobot is ether Sideswipe or Cliffjumper

Simfur was Chris Ryall's idea.
A homage to Simon he put into the prequel comic script.
-X-:
Whoa, is that Wheeljack in the third page, first panel? I really hope he also makes it into the next movie. I'd love to see a Wheeljack movie toy! Can't wait to read this!
EDIT: Nevermind, that's probably Cosmos for sure. I just hope Wheeljack shows up at some point!
REDLINE:
Alex has the artwork on his Deviant Art page, in higher res (no text) so you guys can have a better look at the TFs. I'll put the link in the first post.
Maximus_Prime:
that is DEFINITELY Cosmos in the ship with the other autobots
I can't wait for this comic!
grock35:

Methinks that to be Arcee.
MythofBlackout:
I like the way he draws protoform Starscream. He really fits in with the other profotorms now, instead of feeling obviously Hasbro-designed. As for the story so far, it looks pretty good.
Railguard:
These characters are very well done, I love it.
ShawtyGee:
Looking forward to this
So when is the first issue coming out?

I'm pretty sure that's an external shot of the Autobots' ship...
Milne is such a talented artist, but these movie designs do absolutely nothing for me on the page. I mean, they pretty much work in the movie, but in the comics the overly-detailed and monochromatic schemes make everything such a muddled mess. It really gets in the way of the storytelling, which is a shame.
