The two solicits out for Lost Light are having to try so hard to not be spoilery that it comes through kind of weird.

Come to think of it, we'll see solicits for #4 before #1 even comes out. Wonder how long it's going to take until the cliffhanger gets resolved via marketing? Any chance they're gonna be able to keep up the smokescreen? Either way, this wait is brutal.

They really are trying very hard. For all we know, the whole first TPB will be based entirely on vague and non-spoilerish solicits.

But... what if "more dangerous" is an alternate, negative polarity universe :-?

Same way cyclonus Galvatron scourge and goldbug are not Bombshell, Megatron, Thundercracker and bumblebee in IDW.

If anything they're cousins or like the real world some people just share a last name.

This can go one of two ways, only one of which is appropriate to post.

You know what other comic John Barber writes?
