We received our copy of Transformers Animated issue 3 today from Titan Magazines. The comic contains two stories as usual an introduces another new character, Crossroads.  Crossroads is a human super villain character, whom the Autobots send Prowl, Bulkhead and Afterburn after him.
The story uses an interesting "focus" technique in some of the frames, which works well, and the colouring of Jason Cardy is top notch (as always). The drawings, by TFA artist John McCrea follow the previous issues, and there is still something odd about the way Afterburn is drawn. The style is unique to the UK Transformers Animated comic, giving it it's own style.
Issue 3 of the UK Transformers Animated Comic is released UK wide tomorrow.
Simon Furman has updated his blog regarding issue 16 of the UK Transformers Comic by Titan Books. The issue, which is out on the 11th September features the return of Transformers Movie Jazz!
pulse-pounding, knee-trembling, trouser-shattering
(apologies to Nick Roche) TransformersSaga of the All Spark
too, as that reprints/repackages the UK strips for the US market),
which features an all-new UK originated strip — ‘Dark Spark,’ written
by me and drawn by Jeremy Tiongson (colour by Jason Cardy). comic (though look out for IDW’s series
If you’ve
been following the ‘Twilight’s Last Gleaming’/'Aftermath’ storyline
you’ll know we’re knee-deep in the alternate Transformers movie
universe by now, rolling out and onwards from a not-so-happy ending to
2007’s big screen opus. Well, in ‘Aftermath,’ a precious fragment of
the All Spark was recovered by Skyblast and it’s now in the hands of
Autobot medic Ratchet, who’s busy weighing up the pros and cons of some
fairly drastic action regarding that very fragment. Sure, it might give
them a much needed edge in the ongoing battle against Starscream’s
Decepticons, but how high a price might they have to pay for victory?
The All Spark was well and truly corrupted by Megatron’s malign
influence, and any Autobot given a new lease of life, may not be an
ally for long. Get ready for the return (maybe happy, maybe not) of…
Jazz! Yep, ‘Autobot’ Jazz is back, and the repercussions for, well,
just about everyone, will be huge! And there’s more!
More strip (Beast
Wars: The Ascending, Megatron: Origin), more features, more
competitions, more news and previews of the October debuting
UK-exclusive Transformers Animated comic and a fantastic FREE Rotor Blaze Battle Launcher. Phew!
Auto Assembly have announced two more guests, Jason Cardy and Kat Nicholson.
Comic colourists Jason Cardy and, Kat Nicholson will be joining the likes of G1 voice actor Dan Gilvezan, TF comics legends Simon Furman, Geoff Senior and Andrew Wildman and 'Combat Colin' and 'Robocapers' creator Lew Stringer at this year's convention at the Clarendon Suites, Birmingham on Saturday 2nd August.
Simon Furman has updated his blog with a post regarding the 10th issue of the UK Transformers comic. Artwork by Jeremy Tiongson, colours by Jason Cardy. Here's a quote
"As bleak as things were looking for the Autobots (and pretty much the whole of humankind) in part 1, in part 2 things get that much worse. The Autobot counter-offensive against the ruling Decepticons looks to be derailed before it’s even started, with Bumblebee and Mikaela both hunted (by Megatron and Frenzy respectively) inside the former Sector 7/Hoover dam base and the moon-based Autobot reinforcements compromised, and Earth’s military response targeted (by Starscream and Dreadwing). Only Ratchet and Ironhide’s side of the main strike seems still to be proceeding on course, but (realistically) how long can that last? Chaos, carnage, all-out action, things haven’t been this epic since the days of Marvel UK. Whatever you do, don’t miss it."
You can read the post in full as well as see a preview image, if its been re-uploaded by then, over at Simon's blog.
