The website for the Sci-Fi Channel in the UK as been updated with an interview with Simon Furman following the evolution of Transformers over it's history to the new comic being produced by Titan Books.
"Well, the new comics are set very much in the movie continuity. The first six issues, it's pretty much a character per story that we focus on. And also we try and highlight some of the ones who weren't necessarily given a lot to do in the movie, so we kind of cover characters like Ratchet and Ironhide, and Devastator, but there's also this larger story that unfolds over the whole six issues".
Along side the interview with Mr Furman, there is an additonal short interview with Chief Editor of Titan's Transformers comic, Steve White.
"Aside from Simon (obviously) and Geoff Senior, Andy Wildman and Nick Roche will be doing art for the following two issues. I'd like to see if I can get some of the other 'classic' artists interested but I don't want this to be a complete nostalgia-fest. We have to bear in mind we'll be picking up a whole new generation of fans who only know it from the film, so we can't afford to alienate them, especially as there'll probably be a lot more of them!".
Thanks to Seibertron for the original spot.
