They clearly do effect them as they feel the need to shoe horn the transformers into them. now im all for a shared universe, just not how IDW are going about it. I agree that revolutionaries was a fun read, but going from incredible to fun without said incredible story being completed is a failure in my eyes.
the list says GI Joe #9 was released in August, but issue #8 came on 30th; so it is postponed, or is that an error? I don't follow all titles listed, but I read weekly www.previewsworld.com, where oncoming and incoming comics and magazines are updated regularly; I mean, is the old checklist order still valid? At September 2nd, latest released titles are Micronauts - Wrath of Karza #4, GI Joe #8, ROM #12, MASK #9. Moreover, some of previous issues have situations tied with FIRST STRIKE, so... include or exclude?
Yeah, IDW has some major scheduling problems. For whatever reasons, several of the books have been delayed from when they were solicited. It's why Revolutionaries, which revealed Baron Ironblood's identity and lead directly into First Strike, still hadn't concluded by the time First Strike #1 came out and spoiled Ironblood's identity.
I am so in for Visionaries. My fave backup strip from the original Marvel comics. New figures as well please.
