IDW comic help

Postby Autoclot » Sat Feb 14, 2009 8:40 am

I've just read the comic / book, "Infiltration", which ends as if there's another part to it, however looking at a couple of shops, there doesn't seem to be an "Infiltration Part 2".

There's no issue number on my copy, and it's ~200 pages, so I think it's a collected volume rather than an individual issue. The spine of the book does say "Volume 1", so I'm wondering if anyone knows where I might be able to find the next part.

If there isn't an actual "Infiltration Part 2", which book carries on the story?

I do believe you are looking for Escalation, IIRC, there is small gap between the two but Escalation was meant to pick up off of Infiltration. After that is Devastation.

Infiltration is just the first story ark.
This is what you need to have the complete story:
Stormbringer
Escalation
Devastation
Revelations
Maximum Dinobots
All Transformers Spotlights exept from Spotlight Blurr onwords.
Officially All Hail Megatron is also connected to it but it just fails and should be ignored.

Weapon: Reciprocating Laser Cannon
The majority of the spotlights are needed to understand the main story, too bad, but I couldn't find an official order-list for how the Spotlights overlap the main story, best bet is to find a publication order.

So "Volume 1" is "Story Volume 1", not "Infiltration Volume 1", and the next one I should go for is Stormbringer?

Cheers, it shall be ordered :)


I'm quite liking this story... I like the whole covert operations angle to the Decepticons. I only really know G1, where it was "ooohhh... Energon... let's go and zap people"

i_amtrunks figured out a good order in another thread last month. It's actually the same order that I have used.

Order of IDW comics
i_amtrunks wrote:It's closer to:

Megatron Orgins
Spotlight Blurr
Spotlight Shockwave
Spotlight Soundwave*
Spotlight Ultra Magnus
Spotlight Sixshot
Spotlight HotRod
Spotlight Nightbeat
Stormbringer
Infiltration
Spotlight Kup
Spotlight Ramjet()
Escalation
Spotlight Galvatron*
Spotlight Prime*
Spotlight Blaster*
Spotlight Arcee*
Devastation
Spotlight Grimlock*
Spotlight Cyclonus
Spotlight Hardhead
Spotlight DoubleDealer
Spotlight Sideswipe
Spotlight Mirage()
Maximum Dinobots
AHM
Spotlight Wheelie*

* Indicates that the events in the comic take place in various times, however the placement is based upon the main book not flashbacks.
example: Spotlight prime has Flashbacks to events occurring prior to Megatron: Origins, but the main story is set between Escalation and Devastation.
() Indicates not 100% sure of placement, may also be out of continuity.

Infiltration is offically "volume 1" and Stormbringer is officially "volume 2" but story-wise, the two occur simultaniously...


I read through the series using the Wikipedia order and I thought it was perfect (it even splits up the volumes by issues)...

5-8. Megatron Origin #1-4
9. Spotlight - Blurr
10. Spotlight - Shockwave
11. Spotlight - Soundwave
12. Spotlight - Wheelie
13. Spotlight - Cosmos (unpublished)
14. Spotlight - Hot Rod
15. Spotlight - Sixshot
16. Spotlight - Ultra Magnus
17-20. Infiltration #0-3
21-23. Stormbringer #1-3
24-25. Infiltration #4-5
26. Stormbringer #4
27. Infiltration #6
28. Spotlight - Kup
29-32. New Avengers/Transformers #1-4
33-34. Escalation #1-2
35. Spotlight - Nightbeat
36-39. Escalation #3-6
40. Spotlight - Ramjet
41. Spotlight - Optimus Prime
42. Spotlight - Galvatron
