Covers for Spotlight Drift

The head would still need to be retooled - but yeah, it's less retooling. :)

That "rising sun" cover is... interesting... lucky this book won't be sold in Japan. :p

On cybetron they call him Hirohitobot

it's been said by Shane on his blog (smactalk) that Drift is not intro-ed in AHM. He's there, and a part of it. And I doubt he'll become THE MAIN character, he hasn't done anything, and there's 7 issues left. He could (and probably will) become key somewhere in some part, but will be a part of what goes on.

SPOTLIGHT: DRIFT, as Shane says, will give us the background so that it doesn't take up space from AHM's story.

I think that's a great way to go. Gonna be awesome, Casey and Joana do some fantastic tf artwork!!!

Denton's also recently said that with Max Dino's and future AHM issues the continuity will get a bit clearer apparently. That is my wording. It's from the Simon Furman Q&A thread on IDW's forums.

p.s. sorry i haven't been here on the ozzy board for a while. Missed it!

Part of me suspects what spurred IDW, Denton and McCarthy to finally address (in a significant manner) continuity in AHM is due to the significant (though obvious not totally) negative response to IDW's change of direction in the main TF comic as well as McCarthy's seemingly deliberate ignorance of previous storylines.

yeah, I think it's fine for the editor to come out and say that on their forum though, and it was relevant to the conversation and questions being asked.
anyhow, looks unlikely that we'll get AHM #6 before Christmas.

Well unless there is a massive overhaul of the comic release schedule then we certainly will not be seeing AHM before Christmas, as the comic would be "released" on Christmas Day here. :D

-EDIT-

According to Dento Tipton, AHM#6 is slated for release in the week of the 29th of December 2008, so New Years Eve for us...
