Announced at SDCC.
Five issues written by Nick Roche and coloured by Josh Burcham.
Continues Prowl's story from TCFAIKARID and Verity is in it too, so revisiting the Aequitas data.

Hurrah. A year ago, Nick did a sketch for me and i asked him to hint and at his next TF thing, which he kindly did, and then a few months ago when I saw him he said that it was definitely finally happening after a really long gestation so I'm glad it's been announced at last. Really looking forward to reading it.

Yes it's long overdue.
The Aequitas plot thread is an interesting one, I've long wanted to see picked up upon, especially given we are now in the post war era. It's arguably an even bigger powder-keg now than it was during wartime.

Stakeout's on the right?
Who's that by Roadbuster?

Excellent news. Looking forward to giving this a go - and that cover is absolutely tops. It has a real "High-Octane Thriller" feel to it.
Nice to see that the "dirty wartime secrets" plot is going to be picked up on. With both Autobots and Decepticons becoming firmly outnumbered by the Cybertronian Diaspora there is some real room to dp a good story tied up with the propaganda value of the database, and what various factions would be willing to do to make sure it ends up in their hands.

This may just get me back into TF comics.
I absolutely L O V E Nick Roche's Prowl.
I juuuuuusssstttt love his Prowl. I'm gonna kiss that man on the lips one day. Freakin' sexy Prowl-writing genius. Roche would never have come up with crappy Prowlvastator for frak's sake.

I'll happily give this a go.
Looks like ol' Springer is still wired up in his recuperation.

Springer's looking a bit grey and Transformers The Movie Optimus there!

At this very moment Nick's art (some of it at least) is being displayed in Belfast at W5 in the city for their current "Robots" theme - see: www.w5online.co.uk/

Sins of the Wreckers:
#1: When Springer said he had better things to do than die, he's referring to his plans to watch The Breakfast Club and eat a big tub of ice cream.
#2: Whirl buys multiple tickets for 3D movie screenings, just so you have to see the 2D version.
#3: Rack 'n' Ruin stole Doubleheader's pretender shell in order to get more panel time in the Marvel comics.
#4: Whirl loudly proclaims his dislike of 'pointy' 3D movies during every screening he attends, in a clear breach of the cinema code of conduct.

I don't think this'll turn up but what if Wheeljack showed up? We saw him get taken out then back & repaired by Starscream but not sure what happened to him after them with missing a few issues. I know he should be turning up in the core comics with the CW toy out soon.

He's been in several recent issues of TCFKARID and CW tie ins.

Yeah, I don't see him being much in Wreckers due to his rather critical role in TCFKARID and CW

Genuinely can't wait for this. The preview art looks like some of Nick's best work!
