MTMTE 21 predictions

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!

This has always been able to move me.

(16) The prose story is called 'The Sound of Breaking Glass', and it takes place in-between the events in RiL Pt 5. #CountdownTo21

i guess that is the alternative to a 100 page issue - Boo!

When is MTMTE 21 out? I did just try a search engine, but it threw up images of panels from the issue, and I've stopped looking at the previews since the early teens so I can buy and read the issue fresh.

19 and 20 seemed to come out less than a month apart... is 21 due next Wednesday?

(15) Another piece of music to accompany the end of 'Remain in Light': http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rfEas8T6tM … #CountdownTo21

(14) "Welcome aboard." #CountdownTo21

(13) Pt 5 of 'Remain in Light' was always going to be called 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out'. Then everything changed. #CountdownTo21

nyaaaaaaargh.

I'm not into the whole comic scene, but is this comic getting recognition in general.
I think it's quite amazing...

It frequently gets on the 'must have' pile at Comic Book Resources. I don't know what that means in a wider context. I suspect it gets ignored because Transformers.

*spoilers (highlight to see)

The solicitations for dark cybertron show Rung, Ratchet and Skids fighting a swarm of Micromasters, so they must survive. I'm really worried for FirstAid now. It would make sense for Ratchet to have to carry on because both of his students are dead :(

Nearly there! Has James stopped his countdown? I thought the countdown was a song a day?

Final choice: Rewind by Craig David & Artful Dodger. Or Rewind by Precious!

Maybe just because I was listening to it. But hey, death.

Less than a day now. I hope my local has more than a few copies of each cover. I'm always a bit gutted when I can't get my hands on the cover I really want. Lost out on the Sgt. Peppers tribute for instance, and my own choice at the time meant that I left the issue with Tailgate on the cover where he's sitting on the recharge slab.

Love that one.

Was checking out the sole copy sitting on the counter in my local store this evening (Samurai Jack Rod), just comparing the covers with staff. WANT MY COPY SO BADLY.
