We're doing something a little bit like what was done way back when with Ultimate Comics; starting from a familiar place with some beats that longtime fans will recognize, but from there we can go almost anywhere.
Can't wait to show you some of the craziness we have planned.

Yeah, her name's Nyx. She's based on the old Bat Optimus Primal figure with her name also evoking that figure's redeco Onyx Primal (in addition to its obvious Greek Mythology origin).ScottyP wrote:the Nightscream-looking character already seems fun.

If Burcham draws in similar style, I'll be hard pressed to get into this. If the story is really good, I could get past it. But as it is, I gotta Randy Jackson this one.

This is a different continuity from the cartoon. And Nightscream's not the only bat Maximal. There's Sonar, who was already female too.bluecatcinema wrote:Now this is interesting. Funny how they introduced a new character who turns into a bat, when they already had Nightscream in the canon.

All kinds of excitement on this, next year is looking to be a great year.

You do know that Sonar is a bat girl too, right?AllNewSuperRobot wrote:D-Maximal_Primal wrote:Excited to see what they do with Nyx AKA the new bat girl. Hopefully they do better than Rubble in the ongoing.
That's why this character exists, isn't it!?! A lousy 4th wall breaking pun to the audience
Uhh...AllNewSuperRobot wrote:Meanwhile, the other thing which is off with that artwork is they clearly don't get Maximals and Predacons are distant future Cybertronians. They aren't blocky and angular anymore. They are all streamlined with curved edges. Far more advanced than Autobots and Decepticons in build and design.

Lots of blocky Maximals on Cybertron, there.
