    wow yeah it looks like they took it and did a few edits to make the silhouettes face the other way. Is this the same artist who did the re-draw of Primal for the BW cover?

    At least the Primal redraw looked cool.
    This? Meh. I sense the onset of apathy.

    Has there been a solicit released for "Fate of Cybertron"? I assume it's Ruckley's wrap-up issue...

    EDIT: Yeah that cover art isn't great. Devastator appears to be yawning.

    That cover looks like something you'd find on DeviantArt, complete with bad Photoshop lens-flair at the bottom!

    Eh, it’s not a bad cover but I don’t really like it. I mean, it just feels like something you see on Deviantart or Artstation. It just feels...off. I’m not hating on it, just saying.

    And also, the Technobots’ silhouettes look like they’re almost traced from the Takara UW stock photos.

    I have a feeling that the Devastator was also traced from one of IDW’s older covers. Can’t remember which one but Devy was also screaming/roaring/yelling in it.

    LOL, those are just the silhouette of the CW technobots. And that primal is just a tracing of that one primal statue. Who is approving these?

    Yeah sadly I don't think anyone is too pushed. They just want it done and dusted and wrapped up. No one is bringing their A game. Why would you really bother if you're possibly going to lose your job and your company has already lost the rights anyway.

    Settle down everyone, this is probably placeholder art, the issues haven't even been published yet.

    I hope this is true.
    Using silhouettes of toys and passing it off as cover art is a disappointing low.

    Honestly I don’t think IDW even cares anymore that the artwork is lazy or traced. They’re losing the license to publish TF comics soon yeah. So they just don’t really care anymore
