Covenant of Primus!He states that the conveniently "lost" covenant of Primus has become a license for the Autobots to mold Primus' vision into something that only smothers their true potential.
Spinister?a pink, purple and blue chopper (that doesn't seem like Vortex)
Windsweeper?a grey and mostly-red stubby plane
Sparkstalker?a pinkish fire-breathing bug-lizard looking thing,
This "asteroid-smasher" sounds eerily similar to the planetary defenses Furman mentioned in his pseudocanonical "Alignment" story.Page 12: Soundwave walks in, plugs into a terminal, and gets access to the orbital defense network. He gets control of an 'astroid-smasher' and adjusts its position before firing at Cybertron's surface...

A quick TFwiki check reveals to me that the first and last are definitely the bots we're looking for! Not too sure about Windsweeper, IIRC the bot's chest was grey, V-shaped, and everything else red. There's a bunch of guys in Soundwave's clique, I'll try and describe them later today after work, when I get back home.

What new continuity? You mean the one that encompasses WFC, Exodus, Prime, Exiles, Rescue Bots, and FOC?Stormrider wrote:Sorry, I have been hiding under a rock.

Hmmm... must be mostly 1986-1990 Decepticons.Judge Deliberata wrote:I'm going to go on a limb and say that our red plane is Windsweeper after all; I think the grey V corresponds to the toy's chest sticker. He's very much in the background.
Soundwave's grunts, in a bit more depth after a 87-88 toy search:
In the first panel of his address, I believe I see Horri-bull - in his original grey and blue colors. Next to him is Crankcase, Spinister, and who I believe to be Needlenose. Next to Needlenose is..someone with a very Onslaught-ish dark green and black color scheme with what looks to be a large barrel on his back, has a mouthpiece and yellow visor. Below him is either Pounce or Wingspan, arms folded, lookin' all moody.
Up front, before the superior mixing machine, we have Ruckus...next to someone who is completely green and purple. I want to say Skullcruncher but the legs are completely purple, and the chest and groin are green, with a purple pectoral attachment.
Next panel, SW is standing in front of four bots who are of a mostly green and purple coloration, but lighter (No, not our favorite building team )...and one seems to have some form of shiny sphere in his belly. O_o Next to them, off to the right is someone I can't identify for the life of me; grey torso from the little that can be seen of him, red mouthpiece, light blue visor, grey head-top with what is apparently a fin accessory on top.
Welp, that's that! If only these guys had had more than 3 eps on the show back when I was a kid, I might not have been having such trouble! (Only post-86 figures I owned as a kid were Apeface, the Decepticon Sports Car Patrol, and for some reason Roadgrabber...who I think I still have somewhere. :p)

Simply put, this is a G1 continuity comic, set in a version of the Marvel G1 comic continuity. It's its own entity, being tied to nothing but the Marvel G1 comics.
No. This the Marvel G1 comics continuity. Dreamwave G1 and IDW G1 have nothing to do with this.Stormrider wrote:Sabrblade wrote:What new continuity?

So the events in this series meld with the stories from DW and IDW so far?
