Well, yes, there will be things influenced from Marvel UK, but I mean that Furman said that the events of the Marvel UK issues will have not existed or taken place in the timeline of ReG1. Like, with the Wreckers of ReG1, this will have been the first time they appear in this continuity, as they wouldn't had any of the adventures that the Wreckers of Marvel UK had.

Absolutely love the retro colours.

But what gets me most is the authenticity of the Atkin/Garvey inking styling. That is dead-on, Mr. Guidi. Your art has always impressed me, but I can't think of any other artists whose mimicry skills can match yours. Kudos to you, sir!

Amen to this! Guido Guidi is awesome. He's the artist that I would have liked to have rivaled had I continued with my artwork. Seibertron.com owes its creation to my desire to mimic the cartoon art style as much as possible for my G1 The Lost Years comic that I wanted to draw way back in 2000. Thousands of screen captures later ... and Seibertron.com was born!

maybe the color error on Hot Rod for the widescreen version of the movie wasn't an error afterall. :P

I think I just had a stroke, heart attack, and aneurism all at once. I was actually going to wait for the TPB, but I might have to get all the single issues now, just for the covers. Let's see how the others look.

I'm really digging all of this 80's retro comic book art. The cover with Hot Rod, Kup, and Magnus is epic!

I just purchased the three available IDW TBPs of the Generation One Marvel comics. I only read/owned a handful when I was a kid; so it'll be fun to get into that series as well as this new one.

I'm so glad I still have all my Titan TPBs.

The versatility of IDW's artists never ceases to amaze me. What a fantastic cover.

Man, I love that Prime cover by Geoff Senior.
