Over the last 25 years the Transformers have appeared in media from the exquisite to the scribbled and been licensed to the responsible and the... Pat Lee. Discussion of all the branches of TF media within!

err... been out of the loop a bit, what is it?

A tpb or individual issues?

Anything new/changed about/in it?

New covers, apart from that a very nice reprint IIRC :)

It's very neat to be able to throw a new issue of an old classic in the bag for reading on the train, and I know the next ish is gonna become a valued possession, as it contains 'Meet the Wreckers..' wrapped up in a spiffy Roche cover that heavily features Impactor...

Shame they didn't start with reprints like Target 2006 really.

Will they complete the whole saga? How does it look American comic sized?

Seemed to be decent looking with either insanely retro or cool new covers. I already have it in TPB, so I always turn it down

Any chance I could some how see that Impactor cover? artwork on Impy is very limited.

I'm having serious problems finding good-quality versions of the covers...

I'll be able to do you guys a hi-res scan of it once I buy it, if you want. Although it'll have all the titles and indicia all over it, obv, which is why I didn't volunteer earlier, figured you wanted a clean image.

So is it two reprints per issue?

Makes sense, when you think about it.

UK comics only had 11 or so pages per story, while US were around 22, so it's probably like when Man of Iron was reprinted.


I wonder how they'd handle a story with an odd number of parts.

Last reprint issue is supposed to have three UK issues.
