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. Collects issues #1–6.

Via iTunes we bring to you one of 3 sneak peaks for the night in the form of Lost Light #3! Lost Light #3 picks up where 2 left off, with Whirl getting bored, Nightbeat and Brainstorm throwing some snark, and Team Cybertron still in trouble. Oh and Brainstorm can scream in delight, did you know?

Check out the preview below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below.

Yeeeesss more of Nightbeat! If we can just get a bit more focus on Nautica that's my four favourites getting attention~

I think this is the one part the art style's not quite doing it for me in a significant way, though - something about Whirl's head just looks... off. I'm not sure how to describe it it just doesn't feel quite right.

Bets on what the hell just came out that pod? I'd be hoping for Sixshot personally but the shape and green energy easily puts that possibility out of the question. ... it'd be perfect, though. A great way to bring a great character back, an answer to why the hell we haven't seen him in the past near-decade despite his last appearance showing he's still alive... and considering this issue is centered around Whirl? Guys. Guys. Whirl vs. Sixshot.

Ok, hear me out: Whirl lied about killing Killmaster (the one with the wand) and Necrobot saved him, and that is his wand that he is picking up.

also, the art is still really hurting me

Comment by Optimus Prime13th Feb 9, 2017

The shadow rising from the Pod kind of looks like the shape of a head. My Guess would be Star Saber. Granted he only disappeared recently but still. We already got hints that Necrobot did not go in order of saving people on the list of dissapeared so he may have saved Star Saber. In issue #21 he just dissapeared in thin air, mid battle with cyclonus and no one even questioned this. Maybe the pod was locked up because Necrobot realized how insane Saber had become and just didn't have time to get rid of him because the D.J.D killed him. This could also be a thing to lead up to power of the primes. Maybe in the comics Star Saber is already slated in the script as becoming a Prime regardless of who wins the contest, or if not he could become a new member for team Rodimus. He could become Cyclonus or whirls new rival on the team. Personally I would like to just see Star Saber redeem himself after he killed Dai Atlas.

Y'know, I think you've hit the nail on the head. The shape does look like a wand... or a unicorn horn. So it's between Killmaster and Battle Unicorn :lol:

Or maybe it's that My Little Pony/Transformers crossover no wants! *tries to be serious saying this aloud*

From the PotP vote thing? No, that's Deathsaurus and his whereabouts are (very generally) known in this comic.

So, who did they find? Not another OP decepticon I hope. We already have enough of those running around.

As much as I'm not sure about the entire comment, Star Saber was indeed my first reaction too. :-?

It can't be Star Saber. Primus loves Whirl. [-(

Tbh, Whirl is a dead man walking to me. He's had a death get walked back during scripting once, maybe twice? I'm just going to enjoy BB "Whirl" Rodriguez while I can.

Comment by MrBlack Feb 10, 2017

Guys, come on.

The size? The fact that Whirl is there? THE WAND?!

It's Killmaster.

EDIT: I mean, compare the wands!

Yeah, Star Saber there just flat out doesn't make sense when we saw him relatively recently in the timeline - he teleported off somewhere, likely under his own control.
... also people are putting waaaaay too much stock in his redemption and/or the PotP poll. Come on, he had one appearance where he was an absolute murdering zealot; you really think he's gonna have a change of heart the next issue he appears in for no reason? They didn't exactly do it with Rattrap or Scoop in RiD/Windblade/TAAO.

It's also, possibly maybe, one of Brainstorm's earlier attempts to open the briefcase without anyone noticing. :-?
