I think so. Given that Dark Cybertron's finale had a Unicron tease considered for inclusion at some point, I'd go so far as to say this is more likely than not.D-Maximus_Prime wrote:I'm thinking and wondering: will this tie in to the destruction of LV-117? I mean, I'm pretty sure a lot of us can agree that that was a Unicron teaser
TRANSFORMERS: UNICRON: THE DARKEST HOUR #0
(W) John Barber (A) Alex Milne (CA) Sara Pitre-Durocher
Not a whimper, nor a bang-the end comes with a squall of entropy shrieking from the ravenous maw of death itself. The message is clear: Unicron has arrived. The Transformers lock into a desperate bid to save Rom’s homeworld from the world-killer — but why has Unicron chosen this world on his path to Cybertron... and Earth? The biggest story in the history of Transformers starts now: for Unicron’s arrival can mean nothing less than the end of a universe.

why the hell is it become so hard to figure out how to follow an IDW event?
revolution baffled the hell out of me when i was still buying monthly and i STILL havent bought it in trade yet, let alone first strike
even their ordinary series when collected end up packaging an annual in with the numbered run so god knows how this is all going to be collected for the event proper.
i do like the idea of ROMS home world getting attacked as his crossover with the TF has been the most sucessful so far and given from how anytime ive seen him he's never bloody there we can have a genuine doubt as to whether itll survive or not. which is handy on the drama front. so it sounds good.
but ill wait till its collected so i dont end up getting something twice (like what im facing with vol 2 of Optimus Prime.)
on the vid further up the page i am somewhat baffled as to why james riaz had to go looking for work like that though. i mean jesus the art on the books has gone RIGHT down hill the last few years. . i thought IDW would be calling up everyone they ever employed to see who'll come back to the fold.
i mean is EJ Su Don Fig et al potentially laying aobut by the sidelines doing nothing cause no one in editorial thinks to ring them?
Kinda mad.

I would bet money it gets reprinted in the backs of other books later on like the Revolution and First Strike "0" issues. Or at the start of issue 1 of the actual series, like what happend with Action Man and Rom a couple years back.Insurgent wrote:So if we can't get to a comic shop on that particular day, we'll miss Unicron's debut?

In general, there is something really funny to me about comments on a news story about a free comic being so terrible and negative, but maybe that's just me.
We are wrapping up current IDW continuities this year, Unicron is coming to devour everybody. The intention is to continue after that, whatever comes next. Towards end of year we should know more, but we will collaborate on more stories.
