Alex Milne Announced as Upcoming Artist on IDW Transformers Lost Light Series

Alex Milne is synonymous with the Lost Light crew, the team of Transformers found in the IDW More than Meets the Eye and Lost Light series. Even Combiner Wars Ultra Magnus is based on his designs. While he left when the book changed its name to Lost Light, James Roberts, the author, has now revealed that Alex Milne will be drawing this team again in Lost Light number 13. After that, he come back at a later date for a longer run on the book.

Here are the tweets from Roberts:

At last it can be revealed! @markerguru makes his Lost Light debut (interiors) with issue #13!

Just for this standalone issue, but he'll be back for a longer run.

Alex Milne is awesome and I am so glad he is returning. I wish we had more of the crew from MTMTE.

Sweet! Milne's art is fantastic and it's been my phone wallpaper many times. However I hope this isn't just because of what people (myself included, albeit to a lesser extent) have been saying about Lawrence's art.

No need to wait! They're between Rodimus' right arm and leg, unless Milne didn't draw that cover.

True, but as a part of the story :)

Of course, as I type this I remember Bluestreak's tech spec motto, "I never met a Decepticon I didn't dislike".


This ain't G1, there was never an Ark crew in IDW and 95 percent of the Autobots are edgy douche bags so personality means nothing unless their sarcastic or snarky meme spewing or Ratchet.

Ooh, Milne's back, excellent.

I'll actually give this series another shot and start buying it again if they make his return permanent.

Hopefully Slim Jim has realised what's best for the comic now.

Yknow much as in excited for Milne on LL, I think it was really for the best that we switched. Not only have I grown to love Lawrence's art but it's well known that Robert's style of very detailed scripts doesn't gel well with Milne's desire for creative freedom. I don't think for a minute there's any bad blood between the two, but I feel a break can have only been a good thing.
Also agreed windsweeper (though about different characters, riptide I kinda expected but percy?), though in gonna assume that all is not sunshine and rainbows aboard the LL. By these covers thunders clearly ain't too keen, and First Aid almost certainly won't be either- I wonder who else is gonna be on their side when push comes to shove. It might be we have a full fledged mutiny...iny. Mutinutiny? Hmmmm, I don't wanna go for the obvious "mutinception" but nothing else works quite as well :lol:

I'd really like to see him continue to do things other than Lost Light. You can tell he's having alot of fun on Shining Armour :D

And finally, in our iTunes previews of upcoming IDW Publishing comics today, we have the first three pages of the series featuring the actual ship after which the series itself is titled: Lost Light #10, and the return of Getaway's crew (for three issues at least)! Check it out below, and head back here in a couple of weeks for more.

HOMECOMING! FIRST AID, the Autobots' Chief Medical Officer, returns to the Lost Light to find that everything has changed: the ship is now under the command of the treacherous GETAWAY, half of his closest friends are missing, and—most shocking of all—the crew is actually making progress...

And in one corner, Rook!

Defensor separated at the conclusion of Combiner Wars, when Mirage and the other Protectobots took their shuttle back to the Lost Light.

I'm talking pure idw fiction only.

I'm a fan of that club story though...much better then some of the stuff that's been coming out lately from idw.

Anyways why the hell does everyone in the book keep talking like Rodimus or like an internet person.

There's non-cringey recent TFCC fiction!? Gonna have to check that out. Last thing I tried was a story about Go Bots that read like a 7th grader's creative writing assignment.

Great to the forgotten crewmembers of the Lost Light.

Be nice to see Pointblank, Twinferno or Boss get some characterisation.

Any of them really. So tired of Tailgate and the main cast.

One question, who is the Autobot at the back with the black and white face and bat/dragon wings. Looks kind of feminine.
