Are we sure this isn't the 1 that is going to come with the generations deluxe that's coming with a reprint?

The cover we saw from the Toy Fair has already been revealed, and it's the one with artwork by Clayton Crain. This seems to be another, as far as we know.

A couple of days ago we mentioned that Nick Roche had tweeted about an altered cover for the second print-run of Spotlight: Megatron.

Nick has now confirmed that the cover for the reprint will not be entirely new, just a minorly edited version of the one's we've already seen.

He also posted a rough sketch of his original cover to celebrate the second print!

In occasion of the second printing of IDW Transformers Spotlight: Megatron, fan-crush artist Nick Roche has revealed the new cover (same as the first print, but with more purple) and his pencilwork for the first six pages of the issue, all mirrored below.

The issue is out tomorrow, so if you didn't get a copy first time round, now's your chance! If you're still on the fence, read our review here.
