RiD #3 is out?

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!

RiD #3 is out?

Post by bumblemusprime » Mon Mar 26, 2012 2:42 pm

I was watching this space and I thought it must have been delayed last week because there was no Yaya review. Damn, and my LCS is closed today.

[edit] Think it is out next week. But preview! http://www.polarismagazine.co.uk/previe ... isguise-3/

Never got it. Think it's out this week.

It's nice being angry again when it isn't out.

This is the first time with either series I've had the self-control to not read the preview. Really enjoying this business of enjoying.

I thought this was out last week and got disappointed when it wasn't. It should be out on Wednesday.

they are publishing some pretty monster previews - this makes me wonder how good the sales are.

Be a real shame if these titles didn't take off.

Hmm. Come to think of it, things are kinda reaching the pinnacle of creativity, which in the world of TF comics, is just another way of saying the precipice of cancellation.

Honestly, how could these things undersell Costa? That title was moving something like 10,000 copies a month, many of which are still rotting on store shelves.

I really like the preview. I just got caught up on all of these thanks to Orbital and I'm really enjoying this series. Can we spoiler the preview here?

Did they just bring Dirge back to kill him off again? I really hope not - I love the coneheads and hate the fact that they're all dead in the IDWverse, Thrust especially pointlessly - but if they did then it's entirely appropriate considering his habit of kicking the bucket. Maybe it's another fake "death" so that they can bring him back again for a few panels only to be "killed". Whichever, it works for me. And it leaves the possibility open that Deluge is still alive, which is a plus.
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!
