More information is coming out regarding the sequel to last year's blockbuster Transformers Movie. Following news that the sequel is filming in San Pedro, we now have two interviews with some of the top talent at IDW publishing that gives us some new information regarding the "Fallen" from the new film's title, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

SPOILERS BELOW

The first is an interview on Comic Book Resources with Transformers writer Simon Furman, who mentions that the "Fallen" may very well be the famous character created for the DW comics.

"It's interesting that the second movie is using this character called the Fallen, which is a character that we created back in the Dreamwave days for this big series called 'The Dark Ages' which tapped into what had gone before. So these names and institutions like The 13 are rolling on into different incarnations."

Second is an interview with writer Chris Mowry, who corroborates Furman's statement about the "Fallen" being the DW-created character.

We're going to explore the background of The Fallen — the main villain of the movie — as well as expand on the ‘Reign of Starscream’ story that we’re doing and tie everything in to what this next movie is going to be [...] The next movie starts out with just tons of action and there’s obviously going to be a lot of questions, so we’re hoping to answer some of those beforehand.”
