I wonder if this story will endeavor to explain the Seekers' alt-modes...

The funny thing is, I think I'm the only one that doesn't care that these bots and cons have changed their body types. I'm pretty down with having the look go from EJ Su's F22, to AHM F-15/g1 look, and now back to the F22's again. I look at it like a change of clothes. It's the faces that I dislike.

“Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.”

You have to wonder whether or not anyone at IDW had this in mind when they decided to start the ongoing.

“That is one big pile of s***.”

Nah, it’s not

Yeah. Yeah, it is. And from the look of things, it ain't about to get any better anytime soon.

I didn't imagine I can't identify a bot, but: Who's the yellow guy on the "Rodimus Prime" pic?

Maybe it's Swindle? He got mentioned quite a lot in this review.


Ah Jurassic Park, I would rather read a comic based on that than this. But I do think it's rather interesting that TC's getting some character.

So, how did Spike Miss Thundercracker but get so many others?

Just so you know DB, Blurrz didn't write those in, I wrote those quotes in the review to further reference Jurassic Park.

Nah, Swindle is easy to tell he is Swindle, he has his visor, and he was also in hiding when Magnus came so as to not be arrested again. Whoops, he came out of hiding, and whoops, he wants Swindle in custody...

But the yellow bot in that frame is not Swindle. I still say it is Dragstrip, you just can't see the purple part of his helmet/head. Stunticons are referenced quite highly, and anyone looking at the cover for #5, knows why we are getting more impact tremors...

Other theories on the yellow bot appear to be Sandstorm. He's supposed to be in Rod's crew too.

This speaks volumes about the art style. The current form is a muddled mess. At this point, I'd take Wildman over Don's movie-verse style. His alternate covers have looked nice. Look at the Wreckers comic. Why can't IDW stick with that style? That's beautiful work there (both art and writing).

I agree, we should be able to tell which of the characters this is supposed to be without debate. I guess since he is not running in fear, we can assume it's an Autobot. Since Sandstorm was in the list of names of bots in issue #1 (I think), it definitely would make sense to be him, but having it be Dragstrip works too. Dragstrip, however, is moer Mirage like, and has 2 wheels per forearm, so I guess he's out.

My best guess is Scoop (heavy tire on his shoulder), but the picture lacks the orange, and Scoop doesn't have a helmet.

Or maybe Sureshot?

...

This art style still needs the nametags.

Regardless of who said it, it really doesn't disprove my original point.
