Starscream, Thundercracker, Skywarp, Swindle, and a bot that looks a lot like Optimus Prime. Looks good.

Front Paged and Credited.

Thanks for the links, I love all the comic artwork uncluttered by speech bubbles.

That's what I was thinking.

Would they call him Optimus or Orion? Or Optronix, though that was a DW thing.

It's got to be Prime (or whatever they are going to call him), and his "brother" Ultra Magnus is standing directly behind him.

A bit funny that so many G1 Autobots are all there standing next to one another.

Can anyone tell what the names on the coffins are?

But he isn't Prime right now. Sentinel is.

And the names of the two dead bots are Fastback (the red one) and...well...the name of the other bot (the yellow oen) was never said though in issue 3 it might.

That's why I said "whatever they are going to call him". He could be Optimus, Optronix or Orion, as you pointed out.

I'm pretty sure the the yellow 'Bots coffin says "Bumper" But don't quote me on that, just looks like that to my eyes.

Also do Prime and Magnus remind anyone else of Armada Prime in design?

Notice Prime has his arm around Elita One, too.

I'm looking forward to reading this complete and in one shot.

I'm still kind of a recent comic novice, but I know most other TF universes well.

So without bashing what I have yet to experiance, I'm just gonna say that from what I've seen here, I can see why some fans are feeling somewhat let down here.

Looks amazing! Hook's "repair shop" and the Autobot's funeral are my favorite pages. Only one thing bugs me: why do Soundwave (or any Transformer for that matter) have to knock on a door to enter a building? Don't they have any sensors on those doors that detect energy signatures or anything like that? :???:

Maybe I I have an over active imagination (and nothing better to do)

, but still I wonder. :grin:

Oooh very nice...I now have a new desktop background (Page 6).

I also know where I'm going as soon as I get my paycheck on Friday. Hopefully my local Comic Book Store has held a copy of this and OP Spotlight for moi.

oh boy oh boy oh boy ! My name in neon letters ! :shock:

Okay, enough of that.

Looks like Megatron is making himself a best-of of warrior abilities. Nicely creepy, that.

It's a very stupid holiday. On labor day we all have the day off....what? We have to have a holiday every two weeks it seems, so the banks and the post office is closed. GRR!!
