    Damn, I was REALLY looking forward to the Thirteen. I wonder if the Fan Club AND Movie stuff touching on them (in conflicting ways) just made it too much of a logistical minefield right now? Still that's a big bummer.

    Eh I kinda like THE Thirteen being cancelled, for a multiversal story you would be comprimising every other timeline by setting it all on stone.

    Wow, didn't expect them to actually be considering an Animated Comic. That was a surprise.

    An entire comic of two-page spreads?... My dyslexic side just had a seizure. I usually can't deal with the occasional two-page spread....I can't even imagine.

    In regards to the questions about Animated, BW, RiD, and other continuity series, I honestly think IDW should consider a TF Anthology series that could feature several of different short stories each month from different continuities that maybe couldn't support their own books but that fans would still love to see.

    RID Characters? of all of them I would rather see Skybyte make a return.

    Is there to beany obscure western characters coming into main continuity, The Turbomasters and Predators are mostly still without character thoguh the toys are considered classics.

    It'd be interseting to see IDW start running their main continuity like Animated was done, including in popular characters and ideas from all past TF universes as the oportunity arizes. I'd love to see Bulkhead and Skybite G1-ized and included in IDW.

    Sol Fury never responded to my comments :( 

    - "Did you feel like anyone on the panel gazed in to your eyes, dreaming of the British Butcher?"
    - "Is the next series "All Hail Shane McCarthy's Horrible Writing"? Cuz I'm pretty sure we just finishing that."


    :p
