Hey all,
I don't know what issue it actually is but i'm currently on volume 8 of the IDW collected transformers books.
The story Chaos Theory (think its volume 5) Optimus and new cool looking Megatron are chatting and reminicising about all the battles where they've nearly killed each other.
I think its a wonderful story arc(admittedly filler) but its an amazing concept and its so fun to see them talking like friends over a beer not actually the grave enemies they are made out to be,
just thought its cool!

Worth noting WHO wrote it!
Virtually the only 2 issues of the ongoing run any of us had any time for.
And believe me, it's anything but filler, more foundation!

not yet, as I say im behind in EVERYTHING, just got my IDW collection for turtles, upto IDW Collection 8 in transformers, still stuck at graphic novel number 6 of Preacher, just behind in everything I read.
is the MTMTE series part of the IDW collection or is it a stand alone cause I saw a wicked boxset today with the first 30 or so issues of it

just finished chaos theory and the background where Optimus defends and promotes Megatrons early agenda is absolute genius writing, haven't been impressed like that for ages!

I'm going from scratch as a New Year's resolution. Re-read from Infiltration using the IDW collections, which I've bought all along with the intention of replacing my floppies with them for space saving reasons. This was actually a new year's resolution for 2015, but I never got that far. The scale of this undertaking is bigger than I realised. There's quite a bit of IDW now isn't there...

Next year they surpass Marvel for the length of time holding the license, having already surpassed them in terms of issues released.

I'm currently re-reading all IDW stuff from start in print order (so all the pre war stuff I'll read between AHM/Ongoing). Currently on Hardhead. But with reading Mirage - that issue could be read at start of AHM because Mirage only shows up in Blaster, Mirage, AHM #1,4,6,7,9,10 Ongoing #1-4,6,21,26,28 (print year 2005-2011)
But going back to Spotlight Kup - Springer leaves the Wreckers on a mission. I think this is the planned Nick Wreckers mini series that didn't happen but expect it was them transporting the Pretenders to prison. All the other times we see the Wreckers Springer is with them.

I've just finished Max Dinos#5 - first time I've read all the comics in order
But if Nick Roche is around - what is the logo on Swoops wings? The crest with the motto under it.
Just reading spotlight series 3 then Drift then to dig out Titan UK v2 #1-8 to read ahm.
So at end of maxdino#5
Grimlock, Scops, Shockwave are locked up by Magnus.
Megatron is ? Where'd he go after 2007?
All the bots have left Earth to deal with the prison breakout by the pretenders monsters etc & Revelations stuff
