Alas, here we are as artist Guido Guidi has shared an unused cover for issue 12 of the Dreamwave Armada comic series on his Twitter page. The image is mirrored below, featuring Cyclonus, plus Oval, Spiral, and Backtrack from the Street Speed Mini-Con Team.

Damn, Cyclonus looks furious. Probably because he hasn't recieved a Generations toy yet.

Note to Hasbro: Make Generations Armada Cyclonus and Demolishor!

I have the Armada comic in single issues and in an omnibus. It's a great story, and even though Energon was kind of a disappointing follow-up, I still enjoy the whole story arc very much. #3 behind the original Marvel comic and War Within.

Yes, this, very much. Also, if Titan Wars is real, and big figures are a possibility, double-dip potential out there for Tidal Wave/Broadside. I know Broadside has nothing to do with Armada, I just want a ridiculously big Tidal Wave.

Me too. Like at least Metroplex sized.

Primus yes, a Tidal Wave with knees would be magnificent. I think they missed a good opportunity releasing CW Armada Megs with no Tidal Wave (though I realize Armada Megs was probably an after thought after the regular Megatron). I'm also mad that Starscream is so out-of-scale with Megs. Demolishor, Cyclonus, and Sideways desperately need generations figures.

Never read the Armada comic, but have always been interested in it. Love this cover by the way!

That's a pretty cool pose those Mini-cons are in. If only the figures had that articulation. I enjoyed the Dreamwave comics. What I don't understand is that they made Armada and Energon, but what about Cybertron? Did they just not make any because Dreamwave went down?

Yeah they were in the middle of the Energon story when everything shut down, so not even the Energon stories got finished. I would think eventually they got around to a Cybertron titled comic, and most likely it would have had nothing to do with the abomination that was the TV series. Galaxy Force, on the other hand, was pretty damn good.
