    AWESOME. Can't WAIT for the Movie semi-sequel.

    Why is Dinobots #6 not shipping for another three months, though? Huh?

    A cover to remind us how terrible Starscream looked

    A story that shows us how cool the movie could be.

    A tale that will be retconned out when TF2 hits next year.

    So true.
    Despite his awesomeness, that is the UGLIEST Starscream ever.
    And sad, but this story will probably be better then the sequel story, especially if Bay starts writing it himself while waiting out the strike.

    And indeed, we might as well treat this as a 'what if', cuz it will be as obselete as the Target DVD comics when the sequel finally hits.

    But regardless, I will be buying both covers. RAIZ is the man, and the G1 homage is appreciated.

    Looking forward to all of it. Reprints are a great history for younger fans like me, and the chance of seeing some of the expanded universe movie characters getting some show time is just to good to pass up.

    the artwork shown for the Dinobot Hunt cover actually wont be used. Thats a first version i turned in but was later scrapped for this final cover. Just didnt make it in time for these solicitations. But i just talked to Ryall and he said this would be the one we'd use

    so yeah


    hope you guys dig my first cover!

    :D

    Congratulations on the cover Josh. Very nice.

    --

    Reign of Starscream sounds promising. Hopefully it won't be retconned by the actual sequel.
