    " Is there anything Arcee can’t do? " - LOOOL. Well that started off well for a collection of IDW's biggest Mary Sue's greatest moments.

    " Watch your back! This duplicitous Decepticon air commander’s coming for the throne! " - should have added 'And once he gets it, he will do nothing with his power and just meander around talking to ghosts and waste opportunities. Seriously, Barber, you could have done shakespearian royal dramas with a Starscream who sees enemies everywhere because he thinks people will betray him the same way he betrayed Megatron, but instead, he hires Rattrap, a guy you couldn't trust as far as you could throw him, and spends most of his time talking to a ghost of someone whom he never even knew that well or liked.

    "It’s time for a great big adventure with the coolest little bot around! " - Is he a ghosts, isn't he? Not even our writers know! [​IMG] Also, really, Plight of the Bumblebee, one of the worst G1 Marvel comics, got chosen for this?

    Yeah, the only one on this list I am interested in. I wonder, will Hasbro keep making those without IDW's involvement? I mean the SG toyline like will continue beyond September... Slicer only comes out in 2023.

    Is IDW still going to be able to do the hardcover collections? It seems like they would need a few more to finish out the first IDW run. Granted, I've got no stake in it, I've never bought a single one, but having every issue they've done in one collection would be seriously impressive and I could only imagine the frustration of someone whos been collecting them from the beginning...

    Interesting to note Soundwave has detailing based off the Netflix mold, but Laserbeak is the Siege version?

    "Is there anything Arcee can’t do?" She seemed unable to ask if it was ok before lunging forward and shoving her tongue down Aileron's throat.

    I am hoping they are able to continue printing the hardback collections. I missed the beginning few years of IDW and bought them to catch up, but I decided still to not buy the individual issues and see it out with the collections. Having got as far as almost half way through Phase 3 (volume 4 at least must come out before the end of the year) I would hate to miss out on the final (I reckon) 37-39 issues/2 volumes.

    I do hope so, especially as it would only take 3 more to finish it out.

    I would think that the deal just means that they can't make any new books, not reprint old ones. And even if I'm wrong, I'm sure that whatever company takes the reins will be given the reins to make those collections. Not printing them at all seems foolish on Hasbro's part.

    Didn't Dreamwave stuff get printed long after the company closed?

    Winston Chan is my favourite IDW artist they currently have working on modern Transformers books.

    I hope Hot Rod/Rodimus' appearance means we get a figure of him in either the Shattered Glass Collection line (if it continues next year) or Generations Selects.

    Back to the issue's preview, I think it looks good so far, I'm quite excited to read it on the 28th. I love IDW's take on Shattered Glass so far, the first part was awesome.

    Apologies if this is already known information, but this cover is confirmation, at least for me, that the upcoming SG Soundwave will be from the Netflix mold. You can see the similarities in the legs, with the cassette player details on his inner legs, and mechanical details on his outer legs

    I read this comic last week when my SG Blaster arrived.  It was pretty good.

    Huh so mysterious guy on cloak was not Shockwave, but Slicer? Not sure why the disguise was needed then at all.
    Odd this is still under IDW's banner. I thought they lost the rights as of September?

    They're losing the rights at the end of the year.
