I second that - I would appreciate a scan as well. Seeing as I've got
about 2 bucks in the bank right now and buying Wizard is out of the

Could you scan it? There's no way I'm going to buy a magazine for one

Quit reading Wizard when my comic shop went out of business.
Aint gonna start back up, as I read very few comics now.
(Not totally by choice. But I could mail order them or make a long drive
for them, and I don't. )

The article didn't read too clearly on the scan, so I rescanned it separately
with better resolution here:
www.teletranone.com/wizarticle.jpg
That looks FUCKING AWESOME!
Granted its just one piece, and a comic full of such would not be that perfect
all the time, but its heads and shoulders above most of what I've seen online,
because it has the feeling of officiality. I know this is the quality we
would've seen from the Bench Press books, and damnit, thats when I feel the
loss...
Straight-Edge (Trademarked by Lanard Toys, damn them)
Nice to see publicized Transformers art that doesn't suck for a
change. I'd love to see a book done by this team even tho this guy
happens to be the best Transformers artist on the planet:
http://flux.snapbag.com/tf/fanart/mo_starsc.jpg
That was fairly close to my reaction when I opened the magazine to it:) Let's
hope that Dreamwave has more luck licensing than Bench Press did... (Some
CORRECTLY done fan support this time couldn't hurt, either)

True, but the way he likes to draw would make Baroness fans VERY happy
people indeed!
Dprime's art is cool, and original. (He doesn't seem to be ripping any
artist off that I can tell.)
But I honestly like that UK guy that does those awesome 3d Transformers the
best.
His Fire Convoy (Which is one of my favorite robot mode TFs ever.) was so
freakin awesome, it became my wallpaper.
>
> Writer: Greg Rucka (Never heard of him)
He's a mystery writer whose comic credits include various Batman comics and
WHITEOUT from Oni. He also wrote the BATMAN: NO MAN'S LAND novel (which is
actually very good if you can overlook how utterly goofy the premise is).
Like Wizard's choice of Mark Millar over Furman, Greg Rucka on Joe is out of
leff field, but I think that Rucka might actually be one of the few people
who could write GI Joe better than Larry Hama. I can't believe I'm agreeing
with Wizard so much today.

I think Pat Lee's work is quite good, actually. Not compared to DPrime, but
compared to say, Manny Galan, I think he's one of the better choices.
>Zepherimus

He actually hopes to break into comics. One thing I wish they'd do if the
comic gets out is bring in a guest artist to do an issue or two, or a
storyline. He could get Chi, DPrime2, Dan Khanna, the possibilities are
endless.
TransFan18, who just wants a Transformer comic that doesn't suck.
-"You're weird, but weird is cool. I've seen normal, and MAN, that's
weird!"-Victory Sabre
I hope to never hear that from anyone actually affiliated with a new TF
comic...The Wizard thing talks about mecha stuff, but Transformers
aren't like the mecha they seem to be talking about, that is, the
traditional human-piloted ones - and the "real robots" style of story
doesn't mix well with Transformers.
I really hope any new TF comic doesn't make the mistake of treating it
like a serious, realistic, robot war story. I'd hate to see a TF book
with lots of cursing and killing...I also can't stand the current trend
in comics towards soft-core porn. It's ridiculous. I occasionally get
sent comic catalogs, and I flip through them seeing nothing but
unrealistically proportioned, mostly unclothed women. I don't know much
about the comic scene these days, but from what I can see, I don't know
if I'd want to see a new TF book introduced against competition that
bases its success on fanboys' libidos...

Yeah, his stuff is cool. I still gotta say, though, that Wizard piece
is some polished sweetness. I've seen Transfan art that comes close,
but Lee & co. seem to put just the right finish on it. Megs is sheer
beauty... nice forshortening... great shading... neat glowy leg-

I'd love to see a new TF comic, but I hope its not a rewrite but a
continuation of the Marvels.

That's all we need: another continuity to try and retcon together. :P To
each his/her own, I guess.
>BTW legally could they continue Marvel's story? I mean the characters are
>copyrighted Hasbro, but what about the context of the stories themselves?
That's a good question. Mostly I meant not having anything that
contradicts the Marvels. I doubt they could return to Grand Central Space
Station or the Nucleon, but they wouldn't have anything that would
contradict its existance in the past.

It wouldnt require any retconning if its all new and stands alone. FAR more
retconning would be required if you were to continue the Marvel continuity,
which already has its own problems to begin with. You would have to retcon
several items.
1) Every story and crossover that has or references GI Joe and its family
line has to be eliminated out of existence.
2) The Spiderman appearance in the original mini-series never occured.Though
many people say that already:)
3) What abut characters like Circuit Breaker, The Mechanic, etc? Couldnt
happen as they were characters exclusive to the comic and Marvel may own
those characters(Though I may be wrong!)
Im sure there are other examples as well.
If ANY continuity is used I hope its the G1 animated universe. It could use
the most repair, plus it has BIG gaps of untold tales. 1986-2005,
Post-2008(Which is when I consider Rebirth to take place).

I dunno, give me Circuit Breaker and Rapture in bikinis, and you might be onto
something... :)
Zobovor... well, Josie's already wearing one, but, you know.
Actually, since squishies will never be extremely prominent in a TF
comic, what I'm more afraid of is female TFs with "Danger Girl"
proportions - that would be so wrong.

Okay, fine. I was tired. I admit, it kicks ass. My God, that Cybertron

EVERYTHING in that pic. My God, I'm just speecless.

True, but Ms. Beller could kick the Doc's @$$ easily. Though I think she
was cuter with long hair and shooting lighting from her fingertips.

This is news to me - I thought that Wizard and Toyfare belonged to the same
company - Hasbro bought another company Wizards of the Coast who do some
sort of trading card game...
I haven't picked up either magazine for quite a while (I believe they are in
serious need of responsible editors) but I believe Toyfare is owned by
Wizard Entertainment who also produce Wizard the comics magazine and have
nothing to do with Hasbro....
Marc. (If Hasbro had a comic division would we see a TF Comic - I mean we've
seen several TF Games lately, not terribly successful, but given TF's wide
ranging fan base a comic might find a niché..)

Wait--are they saying what happened in the original story, or what a

There's even a Price Guide Spotlight and numerous gags and info on TFs

Whaat?! Not even close, I'm afraid. Wizard Entertainment is its own
