I'd seen the other one, but not this one - this looks great, is it GG?

The style reminds me of the cover in Infiltration with Megsy and a few other cons strolling through a city shitting all the people up.

No. This is Raiz actually. You can tell by all the little bolts he likes to put on his bots. The one with the cons strolling by in the city was one of his.. not so good pieces.

Welcome back on par, mr Raiz. :)

It just feels so good and G1 to see all the blockheads on the Terrorcons so faithfully produced in the art. :lol:


Looks great, though.

I'm more excited by the preview - Sixshot ceratinly is an interesting character. He starts off by telling "Last stellar-cycle I destroyed a world." No small-time, huh? The way he feels nothing is done nicely and I already like the idea of the Terrorcons being his "fanboys", if you will... :)

Also, talk about Furman using obscure characters! Squawkbox (really like him), Treadshot, Ransack, Pounce (or WIngspan?) - first appearance of the Clones in the comic nonetheless, and nice to see and Action Master.

Ruffolo's art did evolve for the better - still too marshmellowy for me, but the perspectives are way better then in Micromasters.

Now I'm curios about just who the Reapers are! A faction strong enough to oppose the (obviously powerfull) Con empire?

Whoops, I meant Raiz - yeah, the same guy as the cons walking round.

I thought that was cool too.

RR's art is def better, but i'm still not that sold - esp om the ship everyone looks very awkward and squashed in, as if they are too big for their surroundings.

The Reapers.

If they catch us, they'll piston us to death, eat our circuits and sew our windshields into their clothing. And if we're very, very lucky, they'll do it in that order.
