Once again, Action Man is almost completely excised from Revolution... seriously, even if not considering his minimal appearance in what I can only just barely call 'the story', he has barely any appearance in advertising in marketing. I guess showing off one of the two good new comics isn't as important as all these amazing, totally-not-boring G.I. Joe characters, right?

We all know that a number of new IDW Publishing comics came out of the Revolution crossover event, involving a whole scoopful of Hasbro licensed properties - we cover Revolutionaries and GI Joe regularly, given their ties to the Transformers, but there is also ROM the SpaceKnight, Micronauts, and MASK who take a bit of a backburner on the Hasbro Universe material, though still carry some mythos elements with them as part of Reconstruction and probably the upcoming Earthwar.

The long preamble is to introduce a pretty cool variant cover for M.A.S.K. #3, artist edition by Ron Joseph, featuring Dinobot Grimlock! Who does not appear in the issue. As the cover says. Check it out below nonetheless!

Under sub-section 11(3) of the Autobot Code (Appendix D: Entertainment), it is an offense to feature on the cover of a publication a character who does not appear therein.

Somebody call Magnus so he can punish IDW!

Why is he on a cover if he's not in the story?

Revolution: Transformers is highly, highly recommended and easily the best thing to come out of Revolution. Thundercracker's story is short and sweet and kinda shows how far the character's come... and then MTMTE: Revolution is a hilarious deconstruction and satire of franchise crossovers and brand recognition.

The Transformers Revolution Spotlight is the only comic I'm buying from Revolution. The rest was atrocious and I'm not a fan of anything other than Action Man really.

We may not be offering full coverage of the Hasbro Universe over at IDW, but some aspects will necessarily come up - like Revolutionaries, with Blackrock and Kup, and in the case of this post, G.I. Joe (The Crown Jewel of the Hasbro Universe - TCJHU), as Skywarp in not only on the cover, but also part of the team! Check out a preview below of issue #3 of the new ongoing (TCJHU), and check out our database entries for more info about the series so far.

Similarly to the Crown Jewel of the Hasbro Universe, M.A.S.K. is part of this new shared world over on at IDW Publishing, and the technology they use is part of Cybertronian tech too - and there is a special robot guest in the 2017 annual of the Mobile Armored Strike Kommand team, and art by Transformers star Andrew Griffith. Check out a preview below, and check our database if you're curious about the series!

Comment by YoungPrime Mar 14, 2017

..........I hate these Transformer crossovers with books that only have humans. The premise is always the same.

-Heroic Autobots going out of their way to save stupid, ungrateful, humans.

-Decepticons with ongoing connection with humans become big dumb oafs who have turned a new leaf.

OR

-Sunstreaker, Ramjet, Dirge, Blitzwing, SkyWarp and now Astrotrain becoming some uninteresting human Tyrant or boring team of human's new pet weapon's plot, in order to...blah, blah, blah!

I get that it's Earth and you can't rule out humans completely but this was crap that put people off during Costa's era, making RID and MTMTE based on cybertron and outer space a breath of fresh air.

Now they're back on Earth and overdoing it with crossovers with human characters I couldn't care less about killing or picking apart popular Autobots and Decepticons characters I actually do like!

Comment by Kurona Mar 14, 2017

To be fair Sunstorm died on Cybertron. Shame, really.

And while I generally share the same view a lot of the time, I actually feel that RiD/Transformers/OP is handling things in a very interesting way since there are humans who are legitimately in favour of Optimus and the Autobots... and those that do have concerns mostly have them for very good reasons considering both AHM and the sort of person Optimus has become and is becoming.

The biggest problem has been just how forceful the Revolution event was, but I think OP has handled it in the best way so far - essentially just using G.I.Joe as a way to give some identity to the military that inevitably gets involved; and absorbing their own staple human characters (Talon, Spike etc.) into those G.I. Joe ranks along with a couple actually established Joes. It makes it feel less like a forced crossover and more just, "this is what our military interacting with Optimus is like now and you can find out more about them in their own book".

At least it doesn't feel the need to have Jetfire or Stormclash say "Look, guys! We've got the CROWN JEWEL OF THE HASBRO UNIVERSE incoming!"
