    My June(?) delivery arrived yesterday: the Matrix Quest and GIJoe crossover volumes.

    Is there an issue with the colours on the last pages of Bird of Prey for others? Thought it was a misprint but the error also shows up on the title page where they reuse the art of the Mayhem Squad. I suspect the error is from the IDW recolouring efforts.

    Looks like a printing error in which the blue ink was running out on the left edge on the master copy, as the same is happening on two pages before the last page (half of Nightbeat's head is white and half is blue). And since it wasn't picked up before it went to print, every copy will have the same colour missing on those two pages. (it wasn't on my original Marvel copy)

    As always, mine is still sealed so I can't comment on the error.

    However, if enough people complain, they've been good at going back to the printers to fix these issues.

    Simon Furman has tweeted tonight:

    HUGE NEWS! Transformers: The Definitive G1 Collection... just got a whole lot MORE definitive! Hachette's sequential collection of TF comics from the brand's 35-year span, steams imperiously into an eye-watering, trouser-shattering 20-volume extension.
    So we should now get everything through to the end of the IDW universe.

    Plus maybe more?

    20 volumes is more than enough for the Unicron mini and the last 13 issues each of Lost Light and Optimus Prime (that's five volumes of content - maybe seven)
