The Energon Pub

At Ener-con 2014 (the Winnipeg, MB Transformers convention) I bought the original comic board art for the final page of issue 22 from you, the group shot of the Lost Light crew for the documentary.

I hung the board on the wall and have the comic on display underneath it open to that page. I've had it that way since I brought the board home, and I couldn't count the number of times I've looked at them both. But for whatever reason last night I noticed a big difference. The board shows Rung and Brainstorm standing on the far left side. The comic page also shows them, but beside Rung is Whirl's head, which is NOT on the board!

Can you shed any light on the difference?

Probably just Whirl photobombing.

I think it was an artistic decision. The un-colored version seems to have a lot of lines in that space where Whirl's head is in the colored version. They probably thought if your eye was going to get drawn to that space it would be funny to have a character peeking out at you!

And what better character than Whirl, it suits his personality perfectly!
