Just read the actual Transformers #6. SPOILERS AHEAD.

I was fine with Sparky, just don't understand how what happened as a result of what he did.

Finally got a hold of Cobra Commander #1. Not quite what I was hoping for there, with the whole

thing. That was one thing I never liked back in the 80's. I am intrigued with

Wonder where it will go from here?

I like #4 as well. I unfortunately saw the solicit for #7 before I got to read #4, and thought that was quite the spoiler! I have many questions as to how that works...

He's done a cover for one of the issues, hasn't he? Or is going to be, at least. Now if only we can get some interiors... 

He did the Transmissions Podcast exclusive cover of issue #1.

Solicits for Transformers #6 state that

someone will die. Note however, it doesn't specify that they're necessarily referring to a Cybertronian. Who knows, odds are it'll just be Cliffjumper. 

 

They been doing Cliff wrong in so many universes. Maybe this time he becomes a prime?

Kind of, it felt like I was done reading it super quick compared to the previous 2 issues. Action was good, although the whole thing with Optimus did felt odd to me. Overall still liking what they are doing!

Do you guys want me to just change this thread to be the general Energon Universe thread? Seeing the titles are supposedly going to be interlocking, it probably makes the most sense. 

Thoughts? 

Makes sense. I intend to at least see where the Joe books go. Void Rivals has been a pleasant surprise thus far, and the ending of issue 5 sets it up to stay a part of the Energon Universe nicely!

I am interested in this new series, and a number of non-Transformer people I've spoken with are also interested enough to want to pick up #1. From the art that I have seen via Daniel Warren Johnson's YouTube Live Friday with DDubs, it is a bit different from what I'm used to on TF books. Some panels don't do it for me, while others are incredible!  

Every year I have gone bags have been allowed, they just check the contents upon entry. The pic/screenshot from above states "Arena" which is different from the Convention Hall. Hope this helps! 

Nice! Congrats!

Can't go wrong with a Casey Coller cover!

Two issues have been released so far. I've only been able to read the 1st and its different but very intriguing!

For what I understand, once you drop off of Free Comic Day like NEC did last year, there is a wait list to get back one. Which is so unfortunate for them and us.

Transformers: Last Bot Standing

Looks like (another) new mini series in May from EJ Su and Nick Roche, so there is some potential

IDW looks like they could be trying to tie up their TF universe in a neat package before the license goes bye bye.  

I like it, giving us a final story kind of like the final page or two of ReGeneration One did? The previews for this gave more of a silhouette than the cover does, looks perhaps like the final bot from ReGeneration?

Also, while listening to the Transmissions podcast they mentioned that there would be another as yet not announced final mini series that would finish up their current storyline. I feel like that will end up being more of a rushed story since they seem to have been dragging out this 2.0 universe story way too much, Although I will admit the past 6 issues or so have been better.

I agree with you both Mecha_Fantastic and mec3437. I feel the IDW continuity truly ended with the Unicron Series. This new universe... I keep waiting for it to be good. The Constructicons arc in Galaxies was enjoyable. Guess the waiting can end and the wake begin. I will be disappointed that Beast Wars will not continue as I have been enjoying the story thus far.  the next publisher does great things!

I can see that.  It would work a little better as a virgin set.  I like that Soundwave has his toy Shockwave ready to go.

Now that image has better logo placement! And yes, Shockwave gun is a nice touch, but why is Optimus wielding Megatron? 

Dig the Optimus one, Soundwave not so much. Maybe its the placement of the logo partially covering his head? Or that hand? But its a set, and nice score!!

Yes, I agree! Galaxies has been great, with the main series, while interesting, could had a condensed the story so far. Though if whats happened so far was only 12 issues, it still would be deemed slow. 

I think #2 of '84 is out next week. Digging it so far! Art is superbly great and retro!

Mr. Big's Toyland 

 

 

Ah, Mr. Big Toyland! Anyone in the Boston area watching Force Five and Starblazers knew all about this place! Constant commercials lead to constant nagging of the parents to bring you there. When I finally got there, it was like heaven! 

Child World was also where I remember getting my Star Wars toys.

Then there was I believe a place I think was called Tons n' Tons of Toys. Bought many a Transformers from there!
