Thanks to RyallTime, the blog of IDW Publishing's Editor in Chief Chris Ryall, we have the full rundown of Transformers Comics to be released this week on Wednesday the 8th of October 2008.

This week will see the release of one Trade, one Artbook, and two individual comic issues, including the final issue of the Simon Furman penned "-tion" series that started back in 2005:

Transformers Spotlight: Sideswipe
Transformers Animated: The Arrival #3
Transformers Best of the UK: Space Pirates TPB
Art of Transformers TPB

And from IDW's Transformers Editor Denton Tipton's Blog From the Tip, we have confirmation that next week, on the 15th of October 2008, there will be a respite with no Transformers Comic releases. There will however be 2 Transformers releases the following week, Wednesday the 22nd of October 2008.

Finally the last part of the quadrology of Revelations!!
I've been waiting for it to come out before I took all the other issues home.

Also, what's this "|Art of Transformers"?

Pretty much what the title calls it.

It's an art book of various covers interior art and sketches from all the artists who have worked on the IDW Transformers series (Guidi, Roche, Figueroa, Su, etc).

I'd love an "Ark compendium"-like book of IDW's various TF redesigns. Things like Nick Roche's Hot Rod and Dinobots, E.J. Su's Infiltration-run designs, whoever designed all the Pretenders etc.

Think there's any chance of getting a book like that?

Email Denton Tipton and Chris Ryall, they'd be the guys to pester for info like that!

My bank account is gonna take a massive hit tomorrow.

What about Angel: After the Fall #13? Or Spike: After the Fall #4? Or Doctor Who: The Forgotten #2? Any word on them?

Not Transformers releases so they don't really count now do they?

From the looks of it either IDW have not alerted Diamond Comics of what is to be released on the 15th or they dont have anything coming out. Releases for 15th October.

No, but considering, as I just said, my bank account is about to take a massive hit over the next two days, I'd kinda want to know how I need to ration out my monies for at least the rest of this month.

Sounds like this will be a good week.

OMG guys, this is the last 'ation chapter, coming to a close.
