IDW Art Du Jour! Update: Color Image From Megatron: Origin #1

Posted by Hotrod Feb 15, 2007 at 5:11pm CST 13,114 views
Earlier this week we reported here that IDW updated their Art Du Jour! Section with art from the upcoming Megatron: Origin #1. Now our own shockwaveuk has brought us news that IDW updated the Art Du Jour! Section again with a colored versiuon of the same image. Here is what IDW had to say about the image:

"We really get down with good villains, and MEGATRON fits that bill to a "T." If you're like us, then you're probably pretty excited to get ahold of The Transformers: Megatron: Origin #1 in May. In the meantime, tide your villainous desires over with this finished variant cover by Marcelo Matero!"

Now head over to IDW's Art Du Jour! Section to check it out now.

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

Yeah I was about to say that too. Actually it doesn't really bother me too much, but I just thought it looks kinda weird. Overall, i find it very impressive, definitely a very bad-ass depiction of a young and dangerous megatron.

as far as i can tell, it looks like megatron is carrying out his first evil act, brutally murdering someone - his autobot boss? because he's sick of taking orders? - and their internal fluids are splattering on him. a bunch of other people see what he's done, and decide to rebel with him, and take the splatter of the blood of their oppressor as being a sign of all that the movement signifies.. taking your destiny into your own hands instead of dedicating your life to serving others.. what it means to be a decepticon

but then, thats just a guess.
