    Looks like a great month! Cyclonus gone berserk, Prowl gone completely over the edge... AND THUNDERCRACKER GETS HIS OWN SPOTLIGHT! Kickass. Barber writing it also seems to strongly suggest he'll be showing up in RiD. And oh yes, Rung seems to have recovered!

    Anyone recognize the character with Shockwave on the Rage of the Dinobots cover there?

    Off the top of my head, no. But at a guess, a Prime version of the green and yellow Deluxe Insecticon, Barrage.

    Oh God I can not wait to see this.

    Also that cover of everyone trying to hold Cyclonus back is hilarious.

    I really like that cover showing Thundercracker's individuality, I hope the other cover by Livio is all he does for that issue because I... just really don't like his art, maybe if it wasn't colored so dark all the time it would be better but IT ALWAYS IS and I don't know what's up with that.

    You're probably going to keep wondering, as the Spotlight looks to be a flashback. :p 

    Well, according to the solict, Chee's doing the art. So I don't think you have to worry.

    flashback or no, I'm really looking forward to moreThundercracker. Ever since his original tech-spec I always thought he could "jump ship"....and loved his every appearnce since T:AHM

    in short: Thundercracker rocks, to me he;s the Beast wars dinobot of the new era

    don't ruin Thundercracker by comparing him to Dinobot. Dinobot is a horrible stereotype of a character.

    How is Dinobot a stereotype of any character? And Thundercracker's half as developed as he is.

    This fandom never ceases to amaze me.

    Spotlight Thundercracker

    Oh yay!

    Cover Art by Livio Ramondelli
    WELL. I hope it's just the cover because with Livio's art its dark and gritty and you can't tell what the hell is going on @_@

    MTMTE #13: There is no way that issue can be anything short of awesomely hilarious, and that cover is fantastic! I'm predicting a lot of wasted robots. (Also, YAY RUNG'S THERE!) In the Annual didn't Shock say him and Ore were planning on leaving the Lost Light when they reached Hedonia? Would be funny if that's where Shock got teleported to after the Annual and they run into him here.
    And while the Lost Light crew are no doubt having a fff-... a fffun time on Hedonia, shit's getting crazy on Cybertron.
    It would've been amazing if the Mars Attacks crossover was taking place in the MTMTE universe, still, I'm looking forward to seeing how it turns out.
