IDW's main man, reveals some interesting alternate covers for some of the upcoming Spotlights.

In his Blog at RyallTime, Chris reveals a couple of excellent covers by Nick Roche.





Mr. Ryall revealed in an earlier newspost here, the future of the '-ation' series will be in the form of four Spotlights of Sideswipe, Hardhead, Cyclonus, and Dealer.

It looks like Cyclonus has some history or future with a certain evil Prime, but we'll have to wait and see where all of that comes from.

I'm not too fond of Cyclonus' cover but Hardhead's is really nice. I wonder if he'll be a Headmaster in his spotlight.

Agash, everything is turning anitmated!!!! :shock:


Im not to fond of that type of art style in general, so it kinda loses me there.

Wow these are interesting, you know now I'm really thinking Cyclonus is a Zombie, I mean look at his face in the EJ Sue cover, now this one having Nemesis Prime on it too, I think Cyclonus is just like Galvatron a Zombiecon!

This is definitely not animated style. Just because there are exaggerations in proportion doesn't mean it's on CW.

That was one of my first reactions too!

I really like Roche's work, he has a style that is always subtlety changing, I prefer the Su covers over these, but they are in no way shape or form bad covers.

I'd actually quite like a poster of that Hardhead cover for my garage wall.

not a fan of how cyclonus looks in that, but i do like that type of style. transformers originated as a cartoon in the 80s, i don't see how people can be upset about seeing it in a newer cartoon style...
