    My two cents - this is possibly the worst artwork I have seen in a Transformers publication. I said before that I was looking to track down a copy of the first issue, but if this is the direction they are taking, forget it

    Who's the character behind Jazz on the final page? For the life of me I can't place that colour scheme.

    I don't mind the artwork. It is interesting and I think it is a nice blend of old and new.
    The only thing I don't like is that they changed it without reason. There is no explanation to why they look different. They should at least have very similar appearances.
    Prowl is alright. He is pretty much just more detailed.

    Hot Rod though.....It looks like he has a completely different alt mode

    To me it looks like Transmetal Optimus Primal!?!
    Perhaps a more Prime-like Huffer?

    Huffer wouldn't be that big would he?

    Maybe its just Ultra Magnus with only his chest piece on

    It took me a few looks over, but I think its supposed to be Hot Spot (as in from the Protectobots) why he's on Earth though remains unexplained.

    It also remains explained why Spike is now suddenly the stereotypical Mr Cool style character, complete with sports car and woman in nothing but underwear and shirt watching from the door as he leaves.

    Well they've turned hotrod from the thrill-seeking "look at me" character into a whining woose who wants to give up 3 minutes after Prime leaves.

    So when does he get the Prime upgrade?

    I thought Magnus originally but the colours just seem so odd.
