    I like the movie aesthetics (they give the movie TFs an exotic otherworldliness and their "organic" streamlined bodies allow for more practically realistic range of motion), but I don't like the way that Don's trying to blend it with Neo-G1... it's like mixing oil and water.

    Movie Transformers don't go around bearing crap-eating grins. (-_-)

    So they have gone with the worst TF art in the IDW run (AHM #13 story 1) for the ongoing.

    No surprise since they will want to run off the back of the movies success, but it's a style I cannot endorse. So unless the writing is simply superb, I'll be skipping the IDW comics from now on. I had been looking forward to the ongoing lifting the Transformers comic back to the level it was pre McCarthy, but with the art style now confirmed my last vestige of interest has been sapped.

    Default TF's with sharp pointy teeth!

    You know what's odd?

    The fact that the art for the Bumblebee mini will be more G1. Also Zander Cannon's writing it. Don't know what he'll bring to the TF table but I've always enjoyed his work.

    The new art style makes it look like the Autobots are all gritting their teeth... or they have "skull" faces.
    Either way, this new style isn't to my liking either

    I agree. After all, G2 was awesome in spite Manny Galan.

    Perhaps they're all pirates now. Hey, wasn't it International Talk Like A Pirate Day recently?
