Simon Furman has updated his blog with another script (w)rap, this time regarding the forthcoming Wheelie spotlight. In the post, Simon talks about how he reverted to an old Marvel-style plot writing process which he describes as "wherein you describe whole scenes, broken down in clutches of pages,
and then hand it over to the artist. Then, once the art comes along,
you add in the dialog. Of course, a lot of that dialog is already
there, based on our back-and-to discussions and Klaus’s own
breakdown-stage notes. It’s been a fun and refreshing change of pace,
and I’m looking forward to stage 2, which is pulling all the dialog
together as finished pages roll in.".
What can you expect from the Wheelie spotlight, well Simon's description is probably the best thing to go by. Its is a "character-led story for a start. For a large part, it’s just Wheelie,
doing his level best to survive against all the odds. Then there’s a
certain trio of Decepticons making their debut, plus a last-but-one
page shocker that’ll just floor you! And ties into stuff that’s in the
works for 09 and beyond! Oh, and we even get into why (by the end of
the issue at least) Wheelie talks in rhyming couplets."
