Will this be available on Comixology? I only have Android devices, so I was looking to get it that way.

I quite liked Autocracy, so I'm looking forward to this. I'll be waiting patiently for the trade release mind you.

Knowing IDW, I'm sure you have nothing to worry about.

Agreed. The good thing about prequels is you don't need to read them concurrently with the main line.

Thirded this. I liked Autocracy, looking forward to this, but not until it's out in TPB.

Some updates!

Taken from the IDW publishing Forums official thread.

Livio, is there any chance of Scorponok making an appearance in Monstrosity?

----

Yes, actually..he's in it quite a bit.

March 1st is on a Friday, is this digital book definitely releasing that day?

----

I'm not allowed to say anything more unfortunately..except that you should definitely keep an eye on this coming weekend for the next Monstrosity development.

Livio Ramondelli has tweeted his cover for Transformers: Monstrosity #2. The cover features the always popular Scorponok, take a look below.

Comment by Henry921 Mar 6, 2013

Finally we see Scorponok again! He's been out of circulation way too long.

Here's hoping he gets to pop up in MTMTE later on, because there's still so much to be done with him...

Comment by Rodimus Prime Mar 6, 2013

Looks like he's starting to get a lot of love. Resurrection in ReGen, and now this. Would he be returning in the other main iDW titles, maybe followed/accompanied by a toy reissue?

Comment by Va'al Mar 7, 2013

For those following this (I'm waiting for the TPB), it was confirmed that issue two is coming out next Wednesday, and then every two Wednesdays after that.

Not surprising. They're trying to make their G1 continuity fit with toys on the shelves, and include a few more Aligned continuity nods.

If Hasbro's so keen on making molds from IDW comics, does this mean we might get a new Scorponok or Galvatron (voyager class)? :ic$:
