Simon Furman, if you don't know who this is please leave this fandom, has posted on his blog that he's missing two pieces in his art collection.
Somehow, two pieces of original Transformers comic art from his collection have "gone missing", and he would like to have them back.
Here's the full post from his blog:

I need your help. At some point between last year’s Roll Out, Roll Call and this year’s, two pieces of original Transformers comic art I supplied for display ‘went missing’. The items in question are the final page of Transformers UK #78 (Target: 2006 prologue), by Jeff Anderson, and page 2 (the title page) of 1985 Annual story, ‘And There Shall Come A Leader’, by John Stokes. See below for images, but bear in mind the missing pages are the black & white line originals on artboard (at larger than printed scale). These pages were kindly given me by the artists in question, and are quite simply irreplaceable. So, could I ask all transfans to be vigilant. If you see or have seen these items for sale, or know who has them, please contact me via the Wildfur website (& the contact email thereon). All information will be treated in strict confidence and I’m offering a reward of rare/signed Transformers goodies to anyone with information leading directly to their recovery. Thank you.

Now, are these presumed lost or stolen? If they were part of a display they could have been picked up with the rest of it.

why should you leave the fandom if you dont know who this guy is? Not every one follows everything that is transformers, some just follow the cartoons, some just follow the toys, and unfortunately some just follow the movies. If you dont follow the franchise as a whole or the comics you wont know who this guy is. So if someone doesnt know who Michael Bell is should they leave the fandom too? Im sure it was just a joke but still.

Oh the hypocrisy, you get offended by that joke yet you offend movie fans in the same post?

No it wasn't a joke. I'm German, Germans have no sense of humour, nor do we laugh.
If you look back at any post I have ever made, you will find a complete vacancy of jokes, happiness and laughs.

Not only that but I am also the ultimate authority for deciding who can and who cannot be part of the Transformers fandom, I make irregular visits all over the world to check if so called "fans" are within regulations and play by the rules set out by Hasbro themselves.
