Novemeber Solicitations for IDW Transformers

Post by zigzagger »

November solicitations for IDW Transformer titles up at comicscontinuum.com
http://www.comicscontinuum.com/stories/ ... idwnov.htm

THE TRANSFORMERS SPOTLIGHT: RAMJET

Written by Stuart Moore, art by Robby Russo, covers by Guido Guidi and Musso.

Spinning out of the hit miniseries New Avengers/Transformers! Meet Ramjet, a lone wolf Decepticon whose plans involve nothing less than the overthrow of Megatron himself! But is Ramjet the master schemer he believes, or just another pretender to the throne?

32 pages, $3.99.

THE TRANSFORMERS: DEVASTATION #3

Written by Simon Furman, art by E.J. Su, covers by Su and Nick Roche.

If you thought "Doc" Ratchet got off lightly last issueŠ think again! He's out on his own, on the run (with Verity and Jimmy to protect) and he's got Decepticon living weapon Sixshot on his case. Sounds distinctly terminal to us! Plus, more action and carnage from the Headmasters, more on the fate/destiny of Hunter/Sunstreaker and the Reapers make their move!

32 pages, $3.99.

TRANSFORMERS: BEAST WARS: THE ASCENDING #4

Written by Simon Furman, art by Don Figueroa, covers by Figueroa and Nick Roche.

The staggering conclusion! A last, desperate gambit, devised by Magmatron and enacted by The Pack and Ravage, is played out on Cybertron, but can anything now stop the ascension of the Nemesis and the terrifying, apocalyptic repercussions thereof? And on Earth, Razorbeasts's fate is sealed, and his destiny will forever shape the course of the Beast Wars! By the Transformers: Stormbringer team of Simon Furman and Don Figueroa.

32 pages, $3.99.

THE TRANSFORMERS: BEST OF THE UK: DINOBOTS #3

Written by Simon Furman, art by Will Simpson, Barry Kitson and Tim Perkins, covers by Nick Roche, Retro Art.

The Autobots continue the Dino Hunt! Prowl and Optimus Prime monitor the teams under the command of Soundwave and Sideswipe as they attempt to round up the rampaging Dinobots -- including Grimlock. After the dust settles who will have the advantage -- the Autobots or the Decepticons? Nick Roche once again provides an all-new cover re-creating a classic scene from the issue!

32 pages, $3.99.


EDIT
As you may, or may not have noticed from link posted above, the solicitation also gives us a look at the cover for the third issue of Devastation, showing off Hot Rod's new "Earth" duds.

Mirrored for your "hey, that looks very Alternator-ish" pleasures

I don't expect much from TF Comics anymore. At least Geewuners won't complain.

I'd wager whoever was in charge of moniker-assignation in 1985 would be your best bet...

It's the proper one, not a new one.

Really? Will pick up the issue, then... suspect the Marvel Avengers issues will be going on eBay shortly after the fourth issue emerges...

Thanks. Quite pretty. Written well (or at least more sharply than the Marvel effort) it could be an entertaining "life within the Decepticon ranks" one-shot...

Written by the same guy who's writting the Marvel one. Where Ramjet's (sans cone) contribution has been to be told to go stand in another room because Megatron doesn't trust him. Despite Ramjet being the only Decepticon present who hasn't recently tried to betray him.

Boom boom!

Well, it is a little plane [/awful puns]

Perhaps you should change the title to include the preview? :)

The dialouge in the Avengers book was so forced it felt like being RAMed by a JET...

No, doesn't work does it? :(
