Entertaining read. Completely agree with what he says about female TFs. I'm worried about the "shocking fate of Hunter" now... he's my favourite of the three humes.

He's going to be rounded up and forced to work in comics for the next few decades ;)

I'm really looking forward to the one-shots.

I am also encouraged by his use of Pretenders. If Furman can adopt something similar to the Masterforce series then he will really add to the 'they are among us' feeling!

Umm, he used the shells to be 'predator'-like invisibility devices, as seen in Stormbringer, plus I take they boost armor and strenght too. I wonder if TW will be able to transform his shell...

I'm really looking forward to the one-shots. Anyone guessing that the energon warheads Shockers sent to Earth would be what caused the ore SS was mining in Infiltration?

Btw - Facsimiles - I guess now we know what that skeleton Verity discovered was.

As I said before, now I'm really looking forward for Sixshot's mini. Not too keen on changing Magnus - insecurity was the core of his character. But I'd really like to see the intro to the micros, as DW messed them sooo up...

i don't think they are She;;s in the firts issue of stormbringer, its just some kind of energy field.

good interview - totally on the money about gender and TFs.

optimistic about the TF future.
