The Energon Pub

IDW Publishing's editor Chris Ryall has updated his blog Ryall Time with a picture of the retailer exclusive All Hail Megatron #1 cover. The inked covered shows the Decepticon Leader taking a snapshot with camera/espionage expert Reflector.



Ryall states that Reflector is not a character in the All Hail series, but was created as a special "fun" shot for a UK based comic shop.

The art is done by new TF artist Casey Coller, a winner of one of the IDW Publishing's fan-run art contests held recently.

Instantly recognisable. I wish I could get this near me but sadly I'll have to settle with the normal version.

awwwww Megs looks like hes having fun

but anyway great artwork I wanna see it in color

Megatron, still cute when he smiles.

So I wonder if this means we'll see Reflector in All Hail. He's not on the Focus On roll call list, but I'd like to get to know him more. The only thing I remember much about him was him saying, all three in unison, that something or another would be a "piece of oil cake." Granted, he/they sounded pretty cool saying it.

ill be getting the trade paper back this issue cover may be included in the cover gallery so either way ill be getting this cover maybe.

I want that cover specifically for the only reason that it scares the crap out of me. But to order it all the way from Britain? *tear* Either way, it's really awesome. The more I see work from this comic the more I want to collect instead of waiting for a bound volume.

wonder what hes taking a pic of?

"Say Cheese Soundwave!"

That is one helluva cover!

It's actually based off the Batman book, "The Deadly Joke," which debuted The Joker.

I think we found the TPB cover for this.

its the killing joke this guy has a pic of the same cover posted ^
in it the joker 'remembers' his origin he is taking a picture of barbra gordon naked after he shot her though the spine paralising her for life

Totally bad ass. I like it lots.

This would look great in color. Recognized the Bolland homage immediately.

Even being a Dealer Incentive limited cover, I stand a good chance of seeing this one in my box at the local specialty comic shop. I know the store owners pretty well and they dump EVERYTHING TF related in my box which is how I have gotten Autographed and sealed limited edition and limited Holofoil TF comics. This would make my 4th dealer incentive cover. Can't wait!

LOL

Kickass cover! I will definately try to get this some way some how!

I wonder if he's going to shoot Elita One thru the spine to paralyze her, then rape her. Then force Alpha Trion to look at the pictures of it. With Optimus Prime running in to make the save, beat Megatron half to death. And Megatron making a joke that Optimus laughs at.

coller needs to be on the payrol now

The Killing Joke is one of my all time favorite books. I love the homage here. Clever using Reflector as the camera. I can't believe I never thought of this.

Megatron looks pretty happy about whatever he's taking a picture of. I'd love to see the picture in color.....
