Comic News I Updates With June Transformers Comics Releases Including Spotlight Wheelie

Postby Tigertrack » Sat Mar 15, 2008 6:33 am

Motto: "A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination."
Weapon: Sniper Rifle
Comic New I has descriptions for Transformers comics for the month of June including the end of the -ation- series in 4 Spotlight format highlighting Cyclonus Spotlight, and others including the Reign of Starscream Movie Sequel, Spotlight Wheelie and more!

To see the descriptions and some cover samples click here.

Previously, we have really only seen hints of interior line art about the Wheelie Spotlight but included here are two covers that seemingly lead to a couple of different Wheelie personalities.





As to what these images actual mean related to the story, we still do not know for sure, but it's hard to ignore the possibilities that they offer.

I think the covers want to tell us that Wheely will be a badass and not some kind of rhyming creep.

I dislike rap. But the "decepticons" paradise" sounds like one I'd like (one of the few)

I like the second cover better, simply because THAT'S the way Wheelie should really have been portrayed throughout the series: as a little guy who don't take sh** from anyone.

I'm not sure I'll like this unless he's like he's described in his bio, a survivalist or if it shows how he ended up on Quintessa in the first place

I hate the first cover. Not just because it is a rap cover. I'd hate it if they did a similar thing with Blaster on a rock album cover as well. Second cover is much better. Agree that the only acceptable portrayal of Wheelie is as a steel-willed survivalist. The fact that we have to hope for that clearly shows how our writers disappoint us. We should be able to count on any TF being portrayed as we would expect from their bio. A good writer should be able to write amazing stories within such parameters. Whenever one deviates from that (as pretty much all of them do), he or she is simply weak.

Hrmm, I wonder if this is going to be Wheelie struggling to survive alone on a world controlled by Decepticons (Trypticon?), or just surviving on a planet with some kind of large natural inhabitants?

Either way I'm sure that this Spotlight will change many peoples perceptions on Wheelie. At least I hope so.

That Wheelie cover...am I the only one that thinks that looks like a Sharkticon shadow?
It finally happened. The Chicago Cubs won the World Series. Yes, I cried.
