What is Transformers Magazine #1? I seem to have missed the news briefs on that. Is it movie-related or regular continuity?

From the preview pictures they posted, it looks like their Marvel reprint series. Maybe this is how their "Generations" stories will be published from now on?

It's a collection of three comics, not all of them Marvel. I think they're putting the first issue of Stormbringer in there too.

Can someone float me a dollar fifty so I can get the Galvatron Spotlight? I blew most of my money to get the Movie Prequel.

It's about time someone does something spectacular with one of the best villainous figure heads in transformers history. Props for not having him yet another upgraded Megs. That was cool in the day, but old as hell now.

Is the Magazine the one Furman has been working on recently? It has a couple of different comics in it every issues, an 80's Marvel, and IDW fairly recent and a DW reprint as well (I think).

Bring on the Galvatron!

Well, with the Megatron Origins, and now the Galvatron Spotlight, the heavy baddies on the Decepticon side are really get some play!

I'm hoping this is among the best of the Spotlights (Shockwave, Nightbeat, Soundwave, Kup...), well, they've all been decent, but I didn't like Sixshot much... As long as it is better than Sixshot!!! 8)

Transformers Magazine...I may get this just to get it, but I'm not sure if I will continue getting it or not.

Galvatron's an emissary of the Dead Universe that Furman keeps going on about in his Escalation rants, isn't he?

Really?. I really enjoyed the stream of conciousness-esque feel with kup. And the alternating art styles really set the mood very well. To each his own i guess...

My comic store's shipping list only has part 4 of the movie as out tomorrow. They were right about Megatron: Origins' first issue, and I'm certain it'll be the same for the Galvatron Spotlight - probably next week for that one. Wouldn't surprise me at all if we don't get it tomorrow - not being pessimistic, just saying.
