The celebration of the new Transformers Mosaic and Seibertron partnership continues! So far the feed back has been great, and people have been wanting more, and who can blame them since the each issue of Mosaic is awesome! Today we bring you issue 3, which is titled "Reflection". It's written by J.J. Price (aka Ford DeceptiFocus), artwork is by Kris Carter (aka Drivaaar) and edits by Mary Canada (aka DoubleTake). Enjoy!

Is this a reference to the More Than Meets the Eye Part 3? :)

That's the same take they did for the movie.

Verity kinda looks like a dude in Panel #3...

But I can't complain. Keep these coming!

To be honest I don't feel that the art is up to par with the other Mosaics. Don't get me wrong, it's much better than anything I could draw, but it doesn't have the "professional" feel that the others do.

I think BB is done quite well. One of the best fan-made, I believe. Some people draw humans better, others TFs. I drew Vertity as practice and was pleasantly surprised. Now if I can get my TFs to be as good...

Bumblebee looks awesome there. I'm still not too sure how this connects w/Infiltration though....but I like it nonetheless!

Wow, a full page of replies all ready :)

Glad you're all still enjoying these pieces.

I'll try and answer a few of the questions about this piece.

Is this a reference to the More Than Meets the Eye Part 3?


Not intentionally, that i know of. There has been a lot of negative comments about the humans in IDW's Transformers, so JJ (The Writer) wanted to try and bring some people round.

How many are there?


There are 10 Mosaics which have been "released" elswhere, "Penumbra" being the 10th. The other 6 will be released here, once a day, until they're all up. After that, they will be released every Monday.

There are currently over 60 more in production, with more getting added every week. So as I've said before, get comfortable.

What's BB carrying?


It's a fast food menu. Kris (The Artist) used to design them for a living, so it's a personal "easter egg" for him.

To be honest I don't feel that the art is up to par with the other Mosaics. Don't get me wrong, it's much better than anything I could draw, but it doesn't have the "professional" feel that the others do.


Kris also drew "Destiny" and will be the first to admit that his "humans" need a lot of work.

Bumblebee looks awesome there. I'm still not too sure how this connects w/Infiltration though....but I like it nonetheless!


This isn't set durring a specific moment during IDW's Infiltration / Escalation series. Just somewhere in the story.

Hope that answers most of the questions, but White Rabbit and I are always lurking around if you've got more.

Thanks again :grin:

Very cool. Hey I can't draw females worth a darn, so I'm not going to go there. I think BB would have a breakdown to know she's thinking of him as a guardian angel, doesn't the bot have enough on his plate? LOL. Keep up the good work, 60 more? Great!

Yes indeedy, but now that we're "offical" over here at Seibteron, the back log is being re-released over here.

I thought this was a really good one(caught up with the Mosaic's yesterday). It shows off the real human angle of religion, which isn't touched on very often.

This 'Mosaic' thing - when all the strips are put together in the correct order, they make a larger picture, right? Like with a tile mosaic?

I think it's great that fans are creating comics that fit in the new SimFur continuity. I'm even happier that they are doing so not worrying about whether or not their art is the most perfect art that has ever been produced. So these aren't professional level quality... so what? It's that fan-level, heartfelt quality that transmits a real love for the characters and the situations. You guys rock; keep up the good work!
