Yeah I agree with you. The TF comics have been really good of late. I like how they have made what have been generally considered douchey characters and actually made them kind of douchey in personality. Rodimus and a lot of the characters to come from the animated film and G1 season 3. Not all of them though. Magnus has been my favorite. The way he views everybody is hilarious. This kind of creativity is what the TF universe has been needing.
Love the "Rodimus Prime's Lonely Lost Light Band" Cover. I really hope that the Scavengers are the ones to show up seeing as how Fulrcum is on one of the covers. Maybe they'll even join the Lost Light as regular characters? That would be so awesome. Here's another guess for who's coming back in RiD... BLUDGEON!
David Bowie as ...... Galvatron? Wheelie? anyone who reads this thread who hasn't read these comics is doing it wrong. Magnus in MTMTE annual was everything Ultra Magnus ever should have been. next year IDW BETTER OUT THE ANNUALS OUT ON TIME ya' hear.
Simon Furman... just... I just don't get his writing, dialogue, concepts. It's a chore to finish reading any of his books.
