Seibertron.com member and moderator Supreme Convoy has stumbled across something very interesting. It seems as if the upcoming Long Beach Comic Con which will be open from the 2nd through the 4th of October in Long Beach, California will have an exclusive cover available for IDW's Transformers: All Hail Megatron #16.

The cover is drawn and colored by none other than E.J. Su!

We have mirrored the cover for you, just click it to get to the original listing on the Long Beach Comic Con homepage.

Stay tuned to seibertron.com for all your Transformers related news!

EDIT: And thanks to member Robinson, we can see the inspiration for this piece of art, a little 'ol movie poster for the 60's movie, 'Endless Summer'.

The cover is kinda cool, pretty different and original for a TF cover. Oh and FPed & credited.

This is cool. I love references to pop culture. They don't make movie posters like they used to. These days, poster work(not art) is so generic, you might as well have a single person claiming credit for most movie posters coming out these days.
