Simon Furman has updated his blog with some information regarding the main story that will be published in Titan Magazines UK exclusive Transformers comic. The story, a stand-alone story, is called Dark Spark and is written to bridge the gap between the Aftermath story arc and the Twilight's Last Gleaming arc. Here are some quotes from the blog.
"It’s called ‘Dark
Spark’ (I know, I know!) and it centers around the return of a
character many might have thought gone for good .... [it will] define this second batch of 13 UK issues. It’s also more
character led than other recent issues, which I do like to do from time
to time .... If you’ve read issue #14
(’Aftermath pt1′), you’ll have some idea already where the ’spark’ of
‘Dark Spark’ comes from, but who gets it and what it does to them may
surprise you. And it’s all connected to what’s happening (and trust me,
it’s all bad) to Earth. The story sees the debut of one Decepticon and
paves the way for that of four Autobots. And that’s all I’m gonna tell
you, except that issue #16 hits UK stores on September 11th and the art
is by Jeremy Tiongson".

Titan Magazines have issued the following press release regarding issue 14 of the UK exclusive Transformers comic
If you thought issue 13’s action packed culmination of stories couldn’t
be topped, then be prepared for a whole new onslaught of robot mayhem
in issue 14, on sale this Thursday! Issue 14 is all about new
beginnings as we kick off not one, not two, but THREE brand new,
six-issue long stories!
‘Aftermarth’ sees the Autobots
re-grouping after winning the battle, but it soon becomes apparent that
the war is still raging and they seem to have a new enemy to contend
with.
‘Megatron Origins’ offers you the chance to travel way
back into the mists of Decepticon lore to discover Megatron’s previous
incarnation and shed light on how he became the lovable rogue we know
today.
And finally, we’re going all prehistoric with the first
part of Beast Wars! Turn back time 70,000 years, an ancient race of
TRANSFORMERS has landed on earth and imitated the monstrous beasts they
encounter – the heroic Maximals and evil Predicons are born. And BEAST
WARS begin!
Phew! Plus, we profile Grimlock, bring you all the
latest Top Gear and Star Scream is let loose on the letter bag again.
What more do you want? Great competitions? We’ve got those too!
Don’t forget to forward this to all your TRANSFORMER fan friends and check out TRANSFORMER Comic, on sale Thursday 17 July!

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.

Staz Johnson has updated his blog with three images, and a little comment, regarding his work on Tranformers Issue 8, the UK comic by Titan Magazines. You can see Staz' artwork here.
The issue is due for release on the 31st January and features another story on Ironhide.
Thanks to TransFans for the original find.

In his latest blog update, Simon Furman has given a few pointers as to the direction that in which the UK exclusive Transformers comic, from Titan Books, will be heading. After issue 6, the story will switch to take place just at the end of the Transformers movie and will revolve around Starscream’s Militia.
"‘Starscream’s Militia’ picks up directly (moments) after Megatron’s
final downfall, and has a distinctly ‘Night of the Living Dead’ type
vibe, as Starscream makes decidedly unconventional use of such
downed/deactivated Decepticons as Barricade, Blackout and Devastator.
‘Starscream’s Militia’ is written by me, with art from a relative
newcomer to TF-strip work (apart, I believe, from a back-up strip in
Panini’s Transformers Armada #9) Simon Williams. " Posts Simon (Fuman).
Also the article acts as a reminder that Issue 4 was released within the UK today. If, like us, your local stockist are not selling the comic, remember that you can subscribe online.

Issue 2 of Titan Magazines Transformers comic is out this week, featuring the second part of the IDW Beast Wars and Transformers Movie Preview story (that's the second half of the first US Comic) as well as an all new story written by Simon Furman and drawn by Nich Roche featuring Transformers Movie Megatron, as a Spotlight story.
Speaking of the comic, Simon Furman has updated his blog with an
image from the issue,as well as
comments.

If you've not already remembered here's a quick reminder that the new Transformers comic, from Titan Magazines, hits stores later this- Thursday 19th July. The comic should be at all good newsagents, and some bad, so go and get your copy today to help support the UK Transformers comic market.
EDIT: Correct the story / dates of the release of the UK Transformers comic, sorry about the mix-up, it's only subscribers who are receiving the comic 2 days in advance.
