Transformers IDW discussion thread [SPOILER WARNING]

hmmm... that means that the comic is going cost you $11 total ($7.50 + $3.50). Kind of sucks that it has to be so expensive. heh.

Ordering a number of comics for me and a mate, so the additional cost is negligible.

So far the Magnificence McGuffin has a been a necessary evil, but I wonder if the Magnificence was used in Spotlight Hot Rod as a back-up device for Furman to use if ever this situation occurred? It would be mighty clever if he did. (then again he may have learnt his lesson from his G2 comic).

I'd love to know what Furman actually had planned before his series was trimmed down, if not a proper full story, just some dot points would be great.

I'd love to know that too.
I should probably know this but i havnt been reading up on comic news lately- why was the series trimmed down in the first place?

There are plenty of posts about this in other comci threads, so I'll be brief:

Sales were not what IDW had wanted, they were constantly dropping, I think they were down to the 15,000 or so.

So All Hail Megatron was pitched and accepted to take the place on the "-tion" series as the #1 Transformers book by IDW.

Cool, thanks.

I always have a hard time finding these comics as the shops that sell them are not exactly close nor on the way from where I live or work. I guess that I will need to wait till the next Parra Fair to get Spotlight: Sideswipe.
