I really can't wait for the fourth issue of the movie preview! It's been one of my favorite IDW TF projects by far!
As far as the conclusion to Escalation is concerned, I really hope that they don't go the route of killing Prime off! In the Furman interviews, and a few other IDW ones, I've taken some of the little side comments as a hint of this being a possibility. An example of this (I forget which interview) was Prime being compared to Captain America. I just hope it doesn't happen (yet again).
