IDW Comics listings for May

That Megatron origin mini is interesting... :) Sounds great, and I can't wait to know what Megs was as a civilian... :) I also hope we see more of his original elite cadre, and generally, more pre-war Cybertron history is always good. Though I wonder who Eric Holmes is, and I hope he'll consult with Furman to avoid continuity mess-ups. Milne though, is great news.

That ARK - animation model collection is a great idea, TF Generations only had small images. I hope we even get the comic-only character's animation models, I think those were drawn too, seeing how they used the animation models for the TFU entries.

OP/Megs battles and Best of Figueroa -- I'll see what extras are in these, otherwise I'll pass.

EDIT: Is this Eric Holmes THIS Eric Holmes?

He posts as Goodchild or Godchild or somesuch on IDW's board. It was said that he consulted with Furman while writing the story.

So... a video game designer writing a comic? I guess we'll have nifty battle scenes then...

It's pretty sweet that they're printing Marvel UK Classics in lieu of Generations.
