I see Wheeljack, Wheelie, and what I hope is Blugdeon.

It's hard to tell who is who when everyone isf the same shade of green and blue. I can't say I'm interested anymore in this stuff :( It would be nice to get fleshing out for the new characters, but instead they're giving the attention to Arcee... who I believe has had enough of the character building throughout RoS and TotF. Instead it just feels that the cast list is clogged up so much that all there is left to do is just have guns blazing slaughtering of one-shot fodder characters who I have no attachments too, compounded with one-liner commentary between everyone. Seeing as Sideswipe had two lines and Jolt had nothing to say in ROTF.. well everything's following in suit. .

Mirage looks awesome already, almost like Sideswipe V.02. I REALLY hope that the Merc Autobot isn't just called "Brains" in the movie. I've kind of gotten my heart set on it being Wheeljack.

Also, Space Case! Awesome!

I know Bludgeon will not make it into the movie. It's sad really, those frames starring him are the only part of this preview worth looking at (for me). Def one evil looking Decepticon! :CON:

and now you are BeastProwl Prime.

I dunno if its my love of comic books or what, but darnit, i enjoyed this read, clarification though.

Has space case ever been represented in movieverse related media or is this our first sighting of him?
And who is the blue and red autobot/refugee?
Is it presumed that the Arcee sisters were rebuilt after the desert battle in RoTF?

I loved getting some Space Case, Really like the Bludgeon in this, he just wants to kill something.

I think that in this issue (or the next) every autobot at the NEST base and the Biker Chicks die a grisly death.

And potentially Skids and Mudflap. Yay carnage!

At the hands of Galloway. Ratchet and possibly Jolt would have to get called away first!

I was thinking more of Fearswoop triplecrossing them, and killing them all. BTW is Armorhide the Renault Magnum or the S7 Buggy?

Is that the same artist as last issue? :shock:
Holy sh*t, the art actually got worse? Seriously, the art was better last issue, it wasn't great but it was better.
The art looks just as horrible as other "quality" idw titles, like Silent Hill and Ghostbusters, which are both shite.

Looks kind of like an interesting series, but I'll just wait to read it when it comes all in one book. I'm more interested in Foundation, but I'll still wait until it is all in one book too. As for the art, it doesn't seem as detailed as it should, almost kind of blurry or something. And I really hate the unicycle sisters and Skids and Mudflap; they are just so ugly. But on the other hand, Bludgeon did look pretty awesome!
