:D This looks great! I'm definitely going to get this. I'm glad they went back and gave Optimus some color in his Cybertronian mode, because he really needed it. Megatron is about the only one who can get away with mostly silver in my opinion :CON: . I wonder if Sentinal Prime was their mentor and if this will connect with the previous prequel comics like Defiance... Hopefully we'll be getting some good backstory on Movie Transformers; I'll be looking foward to this!

I like everything except all the brother references. One would have sufficed.

Other than that, anyone know what Autobot got scrapped?

I love this comic. The art is so fresh and welcomed. I liked seeing Wheeljack, although that's not what he looks like in the movie. The story was great too, really looking forward to more of this comic... and much less of Rising Storm.

Yeah, I saw that too. I didn't know there was a movie cyclonus, but he looks really cool, assuming that is him.

Are you sure that's Cyclonus next to the "Time changes everything, my brother" text box? It could be Dirge. Ramjet had the exact same protoform in "The Reign of Starscream". Unless you're looking at someone else, then nevermind, I could have overlooked what you were seeing. :-?

Anyway, the art looks really good, and the story seems intriguing. Perhaps this one call for a pick-up. :)

Sorry to say that is not intended to be Cyclonus, unless it was intended to be by Priscilla. But eagle-eyed readers who enjoy Cyclonus easter eggs might be happy later in the series...

Glad people seem to be enjoying the art!

I'm very much enjoying the art. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more then Rising Storm or the current Ongoing.

Tell someone to keep up the good work!
