They never said they would use the BotCon stories, just the characters.
I am loving the cover with Torca. Galvatron doesn't llok that bad but the art, for the most part, is still a little disappointing. Haven't read any of the preview bios yet. I'll just wait til tomorrow and save the eye strain.

Beast Wars doesn't take place in the IDW G1 - as the Ark wasn't stranded on earth 4 million years ago. It's the Marvel/Animated/Dreamwave or Devil's Due G1 - all had a crashed Ark with Optimus and Megatron on it.

Except that it appears that IDW is using the money for them and screwing the artists and comic fans, albiet in a different way.

Yes, it's harsh. But it's also true.

I for one feel, that on the whole, we've been getting a spectacular product.
If there is a problem, it's that the sideline TF comics (Beast Wars, Evolutions) aren't getting the TLC that the Spotlights and Ongoing series are getting, which, realistically, makes sense.
