Transformers: Shattered Glass II, #1

(W) Danny Lore (A/CA) Marcelo Matere (CA) Nick Brokenshire (CA) Zoner
Shattered Glass is back! Optimus Prime is a ruthless tyrant, and Megatron is a compassionate peacekeeper. Cybertron sits on the brink of war as Autobots and Decepticons race to gain control of a Titan that could destroy either side in nanocycles. While everyone has their eyes on the Titan, Ultra Magnus, a powerful shadow broker, puts into action a plan kilocycles in the making!

Transformers: Last Bot Standing #4
(W/CA) Nick Roche (A/CA) E. J. Su (CA) Kei Zama (CA) Saren Stone (CA) Mina Won (CA) Ochopante

It’s come to this! Donnokt-no, the universe-hangs in the balance. The last true Cybertronian stands against Visitors from another world to determine the future. One shall stand, one shall fall. Find out who will be the Last Bot Standing!

Just noting that the second series of Shattered Glass begins in August, which will take it right to the end of IDW's contracted run of Transformers comics... so there had better not be any delays.
It would also mean that a TPB would have to come out in December with the final issue... or not have one at all.

The Best of the Rarities is supposed to be out this week... but Amazon still only lists it as digital only, so it might not have a physical copy - which would be a shame, as it really does sound like something that would be good to keep as a physical copy in the collection.

A preview of the Rarities issue, includes mini-strips that I've never seen before... so at least if it doesn't see a physical printing, I got to see something new.
The preview also includes the complete contents pages with details of who wrote and drew the stories.

Looks like two Transformers comics are out this week - Shattered Glass #1 and Last Bot Standing #4.
