As per usual, the iTunes Bookstore has uploaded a three-page preview of the upcoming Robots in Disguise issue 17! The images, a little larger than usual, are mirrored below, and show a Shockwave-tastic beginning to the story: Dark Cybertron - Prelude.

SHOCKWAVES! The fate of Cybertron is sealed—but what is the DECEPTICON scientist called SHOCKWAVE planning? After the stunning revelations in MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE, learn the origin of the one-eyed, gun-handed master of machinations… and the countdown begins for the biggest TRANSFORMERS event in comic book history.

It seems nearly every major Transformers comic event involves Shockwave and his machinations, as is only logical.

Finally time to see just how far Shocky went with Regenesis...

So even after Shadowplay he retains his memories, despite personality re-wipe. :-?

I wonder, Shockwave. Are you better now, with the clarity of pure logical action, than you were as an idealistic Senator?

Loving this so far. Can't wait to read the rest.

Shockwave no! Dreadwing's toy isn't out yet.

I love Ramondelli's art! But I think it's SOooo different from the RID style (which is my least favorite. Seems like a bad movie universe mish-mash).

I'd prefer it to not just be a random issue thrown in. It should be a nice 6-part storyline.

The scene where Shockwave kills Dreadwing... could they not draw it more awkwardly.

Just read the issue(im sure the review will be up soon, I'm not as good at writing them so wont put it up). Its a good issue, if a little contradictory concerning the fate of Dai Atlas....

I like the art style used here, its more of a European art stle you would see in some thing like 2000AD.

Its 95% flash back and more of a spotlight Shockwave story.
