Nick Roche has decided to give us a little present in the form of the lineart to the cover of More Than Meets The Eye Issue 1. He posted this on the Eclectic Micks Daily Sketch Blog.

This book premieres in January along with Robots In Disguise from IDW Publishing.

Nick Roche wrote:Christmas snatches time from me once again, so you mjst live with the newly unveiled cover to Transformers: More Than Meets The Eye #1, which launches in January. MTMTE is my last TFs for the foreseeable, bar covers, and will hopefully keep the buzz generated by Death of Optimus Prime alive. Still love those robots though. Hope Slanty Jaws brings me one this year.

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

GOD! I love looking at art like this, but at the same time, it makes my art feel dated and shamed! DON'T LOOK AT ME!

there's one bot there with a distinctly Hardhead looking head. Hot Rod at the front? (My first guess was Blurr, but going by the Wolverine-y claws, I think it's Roddy) Reject or E-Wind at the bottom right, Magnus, Cyclonus and a Prowl-type are obvious, but the rest...are more open to interpretation. The one on the left below Animated Shockwave-looking bot, could be Cheetor?

Top row: Whirl, Prowl, Cyclonus
Second row: Drift (see sword hilt), Ultra Magnus
Third row: Chromdome?, Sideswipe? (just basing that on the shoulder cannon)
Bottom row: Rung, Rodimus, Rewind/Eject
