    Didn't realize it was Rojo on art until after the flashback; when we see that every Transformer is filling the same amount of physical space as every other Transformer.

    These folks are all different sizes. Tailgate especially. Little guy is not shoulder height with Ratchet.

    Didn't think the art was too bad before.

    Now it's dysmal. Dear God Megatron, what happened to your badass new body?

    Tailgate makes me laugh. 'Did you learn anything that day?' 'Just some new swear words.' No! His infant virgin ears!

    After seeing that preview one word comes to mind:

    Gah!

    I thought we had reached the end of any Rojo art after Dark Cybertron.
    Story looks interesting though.

    I almost find the simplistic art charming

    Slightly wonky scale aside, Rojo's art looks better than it was on Dark Cybertron.

    More like whats up with the cover of Nightbeat that looks like the fake mock-up of Generations Nightbeat?

    Apparently it wasn't a fake, because its the cover for the Generations figure too.

    Smart money says the switch from the Jazz to the Bee mold was late in the game:

    I see Rojo is maintaining his artistic process of 'draw people, dress them up as robots'...

    Who is that with the blue faceplate that prompts Nautica's physics lesson? Don't recognise him...

    No comments on the art, but I'm very much looking forward to Nauticua's class. Let's hope for a 'Magic School Bus'-type adventure through the innards of Ultra Magnus next time!

    Sigh..... I thought we were done with Rojo. Well, Joana Lafuente's colors make his art looks better than it did in Dark Cybertron.

    But seriously, he needs to go. Please IDW, if you need a fill in artist, I'm sure there are better people than him.

    Why couldn't they get Raiz??? His art actually got better. Well, Rojo's did as well but it still needs work.

    Theory: Ratchet's body is beginning reject his new hands.

    The only characters he seems to have nailed is Nightbeat.
