Finally the last part of the quadrology of Revelations!!
I've been waiting for it to come out before I took all the other issues home.

Also, what's this "|Art of Transformers"?

Pretty much what the title calls it.

It's an art book of various covers interior art and sketches from all the artists who have worked on the IDW Transformers series (Guidi, Roche, Figueroa, Su, etc).

I'd love an "Ark compendium"-like book of IDW's various TF redesigns. Things like Nick Roche's Hot Rod and Dinobots, E.J. Su's Infiltration-run designs, whoever designed all the Pretenders etc.

Think there's any chance of getting a book like that?

What about Angel: After the Fall #13? Or Spike: After the Fall #4? Or Doctor Who: The Forgotten #2? Any word on them?

Not Transformers releases so they don't really count now do they? :P

From the looks of it either IDW have not alerted Diamond Comics of what is to be released on the 15th or they dont have anything coming out. Releases for 15th October.

No, but considering, as I just said, my bank account is about to take a massive hit over the next two days, I'd kinda want to know how I need to ration out my monies for at least the rest of this month.
