I predict I might enjoy this more then I did the ROTF film. Ha ha ha,

Reign of Starscream was awesome.

And Alliance was great as well. Any word on the artist, I hope it's Alex Milne and Josh Perez on colors.
Laters,
Josh

Sounds like something we've seen before in the original comic run and again with DreamWave's run, and really did Sector Seven have good plans for them?

I've become a sucker for the movie-verse comics though. But alas I'll be waiting for the trade collection.

IGN has posted an interview with Transformers comic legend Simon Furman concerning the previously reported comic series Transformers Nefarious.

IGN Comics: How did this project come about?

Simon Furman: It had its origins in the series I was doing at the moment for IDW called Tales of the Fallen. One of the issues of that features the character called Ravage from the movie. While we were pulling that story together, we threw in some elements there of some kind of mysterious conspiracy that's maybe human-led or maybe some other Transformer-based organization. They're kind of pitting themselves against the Transformers. So we laid some very loose seeds in there. And thereafter we started talking about expanding that into its own series.

IGN Comics: Is this being planned as a mini-series or an ongoing?

Furman: It's a mini-series. We're looking at either five or six issues. But we have yet to pace it out into its respective parts. But it'll be a self-contained series.

I'm looking forward to see what are the new toys going to do in these comics. I just love how they use characters like Stockade and make them awesome.
