Transformers Spotlight: Shockwave
Simon Furman (w); Nick Roche (a); Nick Roche, James Raiz (c)
Presenting a series of one-shots, focusing on some of the best-loved (or loathed) characters from the TRANSFORMERS Universe. The spotlight falls on SHOCKWAVE as the coldly logical DECEPTICON undertakes a plan of devastating scope and ambition, one that will send shockwaves through the entire saga, including the Stormbringer and Escalation series and beyond! Guest-starring... the DINOBOTS! By Simon Furman (The Transformers: Stormbringer) and Nick Roche (Transformers: Generations).
FC • 32 pages • $3.99
The Transformers: Stormbringer #3
Simon Furman (w), Don Figueroa (a & c)
The action explodes on two fronts, as—on CYBERTON—the WRECKERS kick back (hard!) against BLUDGEON’s rogue cult, and—on Nebulos—THUNDERWING shows exactly why, last time around, it took the combined firepower of two armies just to put him on ‘pause.’ As events spiral out of control and the body count rises, MEGATRON prepares to execute his distinctly terminal no-win scenario. Features a special wraparound cover from Figueroa as well as a variant character sketch cover from Fig, too.

Chuck Dixon (w), Guido Guidi (a & c)
Tobias Muldoon must stop the ASTROTRAIN from reaching New York or face a world under the iron rule of the DECEPTICONS. His allies are the AUTOBOTS and the legendary steel-driving man John Henry. Steam-driven, iron-clad action as the ROBOTS IN DISGUISE break cover to do battle at the dawn of the Industrial Revolution. Chuck Dixon and artist Guido Guidi conclude their special look at the Industrial Age reign of the TRANSFORMERS. This issue features two covers from Guidi, one a concept art cover.

The Transformers: Infiltration TPB
Simon Furman (w), E.J. Su (a & c)
Earth: 2006, and the fate of the planet is already sealed, its destiny decided... by the marauding mechanical beings known as DECEPTICONS. In their way stand an embattled crew of seven hardy AUTOBOT warriors, sworn to prevent the impending Armageddon at any cost, and an unlikely trio of human misfits, pulled kicking and screaming into a hitherto hidden world of pain and hurt. The can of worms is open, the genie out of bottle... and nothing will ever be the same again! Before ESCALATION begins next month, see how it all started—the saga of the war-torn robots in disguise, the TRANSFORMERS!
