Yes, there are still delays with IDW Publishing titles, Transformers included - but we can still get a look at what's soon to come in the next issue of More Than Meets the Eye,the end of Elegant Chaos and the Cybertronian Trilogy, thanks to the fantastic work by digital assistant Mariel Romero's, uploading preview screenshots to iTunes, and which we've mirrored below to quench your comics thirst. Check them out!

Description
JOURNEY'S END! Across time, across space, from prewar Messatine to postwar CYBERTRON—it's all been heading towards this—the moment when the fate of the AUTOBOTS and the DECEPTICONS is sealed. At the heart of it all: three killers, two outcomes... and one terrible, terrible choice.

"Abandoning my evil ways"



This series just keeps getting better

"Th havn't finished building you [...]?"

Does this mean we see that Megatron is Constructed Cold? Or is it still as ambiguous as Roberts has kept it thus far?

Maybe...MAYBE.

Here's the thing, Megatron has been IDd as a point-one-percentor yet he still doesn't want to talk about it and his reasoning has always been that even though classism is gone, it's still around if you identify your spark. Anyway, megatrons spark is blue here and point-one-percentors are green. It just so happens Brainstorm has a POP in his possession from Luna One and he has it with him because the briefcase only allows 2 spark types. That's how so many different types of bots went back to stop brainstorm.

Here's the theory, the original Megatron(guy not finished being built) is going to die and they use the point-one-percentor spark to give life to the Megatron we all know and love/hate. Possibly making his birth as forged or constructed cold and touchy issue.

This has me thinking, for no other reason other than that Roberts is sneaky, and likes every action and snippet of dialog to have some meaning..

I wonder if Megatron's Potential-Point-One-Percenter spark coming from Cybertron's lost moon 5 million years in the future will have any further story implications..

I have no idea what, but I could see it having some significance.

Almost as if the time-travel paradox is that Brainstorm is meant to do whatever he plans on doing anyway, and that Rodimus and Friends preventing him from doing so would actually be worse than allowing him to follow through!

It still doesn't explain the functionist time frame since apparent rodimus's team are creating pre-existing things like rung starting the fight, being sighted building the lost light model or Roller becoming tarn, yet brainstorm can change stuff. My guess and its a stretch is that the funtionalist universe only exists for a small moment of Megatron being dead and coming back to life. A giant WHAT IF situation.

My brain hurts.

still love z art

Well, for one thing it makes Rodimus responsible for Megatron existing. Remember that that spark only exists because Rodimus had the Matrix with him to ignite the hot spot, which means he and Megatron have the closest thing I can imagine to a father/son relationship in the IDWverse. Seeing how that affects these two should be amazing.

Where's Madeus when I need his damned meme?

I can't wait to read this issue, looks great!

I hope they don't get rid of Brainstorm. Love him! The preview gives me hope at least!

Well, we assume that's what ignited the hot spot, but there was one other bot who hit the ground at the same time as Rodimus...

Yarp.

It may all be a red herring, but it's out there. We still don't quite know what exactly Rung is, even if his status as a historical constant has seemingly been addressed.

Am I the only one.that thinks the spark looks green already ?

It's not the same blue as the panals around him anyway so the whole moon spark thing could be a red herring ( if ya excuse the chromatic humour ::). -)

Maybe...it's hard to say...

The second release this week by IDW Publishing sees the conclusion of the Elegant Chaos storyline (or does it?) and the finale in the Cybertronian Trilogy started back in Chaos Theory (or is it?). Head below for a full preview of Transformers: More Than Meets the Eye #38!

I wasn't sure to use this for MTMTE or windblade but after so, so many delays;


Also I think brainstorms endgame was to return functionalist control; but we'll see Wednesday.

there's that number 113 again

Oh damn, I just noticed brainstorm's pinky is up! Like a true dandy. Reminds me of Reaver from fable.

Oh my God...

Brainstorm's plan...I keep thinking I might have handle on it, but when I try to put it into words, I lose it.

I SO cannot wait for Wednesday!

James Robert's first Transformers comic was issue #113. Because of that, the number 113 is constantly showing up in his work. Agent 113, room 113, Datalog 113, 113th Cybertronian Senate, 113th Battalion, Code 113, Sector 113, it goes on and on, and on.
