[griffin]

IDW's Chris Ryall has posted up images and details (http://ryalltime.wordpress.com/2010/12/30/visions-of-2011-transformers-infestation/) of the upcoming Infestation crossover series, which includes Transformers of course.


TRANSFORMERS: INFESTATION (2 issues, written by Abnett and Lanning, with art by Nick Roche, and variant ’50s sci-fi-ish poster by John K. Snyder III). Both issues ship bi-weekly in February

[Seraphim Prime]

I think that's true for Prime himself, though the poster as a whole evokes more of the 1951 poster for The Day the Earth Stood Still (http://rocketshipvideo.com/posters/thedaytheearthstoodstill.jpg).

Since this is meant to be "in universe" I guess Ratchet fixed Bumblebee up pretty easily then?

And Drift is back...
