    Thanks for stopping by!

    Yeah, slow burn is being felt, but I'm okay with it. I've just been taking it in and having fun with it. Nothing has happened that has gotten me jumping off my seat or telling my friends about, but it's got beast wars stories again. That'll keep me satisfied for the time being while it ramps up!

    If it stays at this pace forever, I'll definitely start to lose interest, but I'm not past that honeymoon stage yet. You got time!

    Sure, growing pains aren't an unexpected element for something like this. I'm really eager to see how this comic further develops its own identity. We have however many reinterpretations of G1 now so I appreciate giving another era a spin like this.

    Got caught up and Nyx was an absolute savage to Megatron.

    Hasbro is plotting the broad strokes of the book?

    I wouldn't say "plotting."

    When a series is pitched theyre usually brought a small handful of different approaches (basic premise/ rough outlines of story arcs/cast etc). They greenlight one, maybe have some notes on things they'd like to see or things in the pitch that they'd like adjusted/characters to use or not use. That type of thing. It's a collaborative deal/general approach kinda thing.

    I agree. I'm enjoying the run so far as well.

    So are we essentially a month late going forward now?

    Issue #1 - Released February 3rd
    Issue #2 - Released March 3rd
    Issue #3 - Released April 7th
    Issue #4 - Released May 26th

    Or is this a normal thing for comic books?

    Hi, not sure if anyone has already asked this but I’ve seen that this has been confirmed to be a 12 issue series.. is that the case? And if so once the 12 issues are done will that be the end?

    I wonder if the ROTB tie-in comic books will feel more like Beast Wars than this.

    And if IDW are looking for a writer for them... ;)

    I'd seriously hope to replicate more scenes from this comic:

    On the other hand, I'm begining to think that maybe Kingdom Rhinox's headsculpt is based off the current comic design

    A shame the Trieditor council is just as effective as the Tripredacus one. :/
