TRANSFORMERS MORE THAN MEETS EYE #46
(W) James Roberts (A/CA) Alex Milne
What does it mean to be a DECEPTICON in a postwar universe? Was MEGATRON’s rise to power the inevitable consequence of configurative determinism? Is it possible to “disprove” an ideology? Who decided that all the badges should be purple? In this issue, the Scavengers ponder at least one of these questions.
* The Scavengers continue to return!
* The countdown to issue 50 begins here!
* Part of IDW’s Artist’s Edition Month promotion!

Pencils of the Retailer incentive covers have also been released (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/07/15/transformers-rid-and-mtmte-46-retailer-incentive-covers-297159) for Transformers #46 and MTMTE #46.

Out next week (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/09/30/diamond-comics-shipping-list-for-october-7th-302073) is Animated #3 and GIJoe/TFs #9.

Another really late issue of GIJoe/TFs, as it was solicited for an August release (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=20913), which is two months late.
Issue 10 is scheduled for release in December (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=21613), so they don't seem to have much confidence in catching up by giving it a four month gap between solicitations... and it will be interesting to see if it also ends up being late, despite having two months since the release of Issue 9 instead of the standard single month.

Out next week (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/10/07/diamond-comics-shipping-list-for-october-14th-302452) "could be" Transformers #46 and RID Animated #4, along with a new Dinobots story called Redemption.

The "could be" refers to RID, as #3 was only just out this week, while Transformers #45 was only just out two weeks ago (but IDW might just be trying to keep them in separate weeks by releasing this one early).

According to this source (http://www.previewsworld.com/Home/1/1/71/977?articleID=169545), none are listed for next week... so maybe a last minute delay by IDW, and they might be out the following week (October 21st).

The RID Animated #3 came out a week or two ago, so this preview was released late... but in case anyone isn't buying the comic, here's what you are missing (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/10/06/transformers-robots-in-disguise-3-preview-302392).

I haven't seen this comic yet, or much of the previews for it, so this is the first I have seen that they are indeed using the comic to more prominently tie this series to TFPrime (by including Bulkhead here), which the cartoon is remaining rather vague so that it can stand on its own if necessary.
And more Decepticons being introduced, but this one (called Overhead) is just a redeco Terrorshock (as a female character).

[griffin]

Transformers #46 is definitely out next week (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/10/14/diamond-comics-shipping-list-for-october-21th-303188), not this week.

[griffin]

A preview of Transformers #46 has been released as well, which has been mirrored here (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/10/16/idw-transformers-46-full-preview-303268).

Out next week should be (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/10/21/diamond-comics-shipping-list-for-october-28th-304199) the one-shot Redemption comic, featuring the Dinobots.

A preview of the Redemption comic has been mirrored here (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/10/23/transformers-redemption-full-preview-304337).

Drawn by Livio Ramondelli, which visually is a bit of an acquired taste (I'm not a fan of his art style, but others are).

A full preview for MTMTE #46 has been mirrored here (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/10/30/more-than-meets-the-eye-46-full-preview-304727), and should be out next week.
