Legendary comic book writer Peter David's "lost" TF story

Postby Cyberstrike » Sat Aug 01, 2009 9:58 am

Motto: "I don't lose, I CONQUER!"
Weapon: Electro-Sword
The Transformers #16: “The Love Bug”

–about the character Bumblebee on a solo adventure. Pencils by William Johnson, inks by Kyle Baker. According to editor Christopher Priest (a.k.a. James Owsley), Johnson took so long to draw it that new Transformers toys came out that made the story out-of-date. A different Bumblebee story by Len Kaminski, perhaps based in part on PAD’s story, ran in its place in issue #16. There are indications that the Johnson/Baker art for the story was lost or misplaced soon after.

I found this at Peter David's website http://www.peterdavid.net and with IDW announcing a Bumblebee mini-series I thought it was interesting to post this. I would love to see Peter David write a Transformers story, and I doubt we'll ever see it though.
