    plus it’s beast wars. 1-2 issue length stories to start would probably be the acceptable length of an episode-like structure and then stories get longer as more characters are introduced and things like the Vok and the ark come in if they show up. The Vok are probably a safe bet to come in eventually unless they go in a completely new direction but we have already seen floating mountains and 2 moons.

    I think the Vok are a given. Their an integral part of BW and not exploring them further if given an opportunity like this would be unusual.

    I think it's too early for them to appear in the comic though. Let them soak in how weird the planet is before showing us who's behind the curtain.

    I know I've said it before, but BW was very similar to LOST. Crash on a strange planet and very slowly reveal not only how weird it was, but why.

    I agree I think this series has a lot of potential and can prove a lot of people wrong that beast wars isn’t so tight nipped that new stories and new directions cant be done.

    This Transformers Annual 2021 was posted online and with @IDWPublishing permission I am posting it here :) 
    This was a fun image to work on and this time I took a stab at coloring it myself. @Brian_Ruckley has given me a lot of fun stuff to draw :D

    Always happy to see Milne artwork even if he is not the primary artist for the books. Hopefully they will not kill this iteration of the Technobots unceremoniously like the previous generation.

    They could  do another crossover too with the   Train as well. but  I  this was in movies before number 3.. Shame though I  love to see them do the  train.

    Huh, the Technobots are trapped in the many cords, and appear to be using their Unite Warrior bodies, or at least Nosecone is

    If you are from my neck of the woods annuals weren't what they are now.

    A stable of UK publishing annuals used to be a mixture of text and artwork and puzzles etc all wrapped up in a hardcover. Trying to explain to people now that annual doesn't mean what it used to is hard as people expect it to be like the eighties.

    Its not just a bigger story with a bit if art at the back
