This takes guts. That 12/14 release date was thrown up quite awhile ago, and I'd have less faith than the organizers here do that IDW will have it out.

This is just me being cynical though. Hope it's a blast for all who get to attend!

Still really hoping they stay with the release date. Those fans deserve it who are going to go

iTunes has dropped in and given us a 3-page preview for the upcoming IDW Lost Light #1! The preview stars 3 bots altogether, one of which is clearly bad and loves giant mechsuits while the other 2 might be explorers of sorts. Check out the 3 page preview below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

Five years ago, Rodimus and a collection of traumatised, lovelorn and/or sarcastic Autobots set off on a quest to find Cyberutopia. So far, they've made a right hash of it. They've misplaced their map. They've lost their ship, the Lost Light, to a mutinous escapologist. Oh, and they're dead.

Has anyone else noticed the new Transformers comics have gotten a little "homoerotic" lately?

I don't know who any of these people are but I do not care, because at least they're not bloody Miles Mayhem.

Someone mentioned the "H" word (guess it was deleted) but the Tall bot actually looks kinda female to me.

I am so pumped! It's like a perfect encapsulation of why I like MTMTE!

They looked like Arcee to me at first.

I'm wondering what this actually has to do with the Lost Light crew.

No lips, though. MTMTE tends to have it's females with feminine lips, and sorta eyelashes.

Think IDW's first issue to their new comic series Lost Light; the sequel to the critically-acclaimed More Than Meets The Eye penned by James Roberts can't get any more covers? Well, think again! Straight from RIPT Apparel - the company responsible for the awesome MTMTE/My Chemical Romance shirt earlier this year and another exclusive cover for Optimus Prime #1 - comes a new exclusive cover for Lost Light's first issue; featuring Team Rodimus guns blazing in an epic homage to the iconic poster for 1986's The Transformers: The Movie. Check the full cover out below and tell us what you think in the forums!
