Fellow Seibertron.com staff member D-Maximus_Primal spotted a new addition from IDW artist Andrew Griffith on his Twitter account, after a magnificent job on this week's The Transformers #50 (read our review here!), showing off the line art and clean cover with Joana Lafuente's colours for the upcoming issue #51 for More Than Meets the Eye - and DJD's Tarn in all his evil glory. Check it out below!

Nice! Can't wait for the issues to get here.

[BumbleDouche]

"Well, that's. Just. Beyoootiful."

[Deadput]

When I look at his left Eye he looks mad yet when I look into his right he looks...sad?

[Alpha Dominus]

Seeing Tarn like that on the cover doesn't make me feel too optimistic about Megatrons fate. I really hope that's a false assumption.

I love the artwork for these story arcs. Magnificent stuff

Seconds the filthy Autobot.

Love the colors on that one, I swear I just spent 15 minutes just staring....

Hehmm:

I cannot tell you how much time I have spent staring at some of the covers. I forget how many he actually said, but Milne said there were I think 35 faces on issue 51's main cover, not to mention all the ones on issue 50's.

Just wow.

And, hehmm:

Still a filthy Autobot regardless. It's your nick name

I'm trying to decide whether or not I'm flattered

So let me guess: You want Megatron to suffer at the hands of Tarn? Or more importantly: who do you think Tarn really is? Any theories?

You should be flattered. If I didn't like you, the spam filter would censor the nick name I gave you.

As for Megatron....

Although I am not entirely thrilled with him becoming an Autobot, I find the story intriguing. I also love Megs abd can't being myself to want him suffering. So no. I do not want to see Tarn torture him.

And I'm still in the Tarn is Roller camp (unless something to the contrary has come to light that I missed)

I'm glad that at least you do not want Megs to suffer. I have loved his role as an Autobot and his path he took.

I really think Tarn is Dominus Ambus. Now, I will most likely be wrong about that and Roller will be Tarn, but to me Roller just makes too much sense. Like Roberts has been blatantly lousy with hints of that being so, and he is never that obvious, so I just don't feel completely confident it it.

Now, Dominus has been missing for some time. Necrobot doesn't even know what happened to him. As the brother to Minimus, a load bearer, maybe Dominus is a load bearer too, and that is how he knew about the teleport hand on the Magnus armor, enabling him to cut it off and then kill his brother. As Rewinds ex-CE, he would leave Rewind alive to record everything and let him live. He is a scholar, and Tarn has proven to be very educated and at times scholarly. As Tarn found out that Domey was Rewind's new CE, he would either make Domey forget, or kill him in front of Rewind for personal reasons, him being an ex CE after all (though different from most ex's).

That's what I've got. that and Roller is too Roberts obvious for me.

Darn it meant profanity filter....

I do agree there, Roller is way obvious but then again,maybe that's the subterfuge... we all think it's too obvious and thus look elsewhere and in the end it is.

But Ambush makes a lot of sense too, really does.

[D-Maximal_Primal]

This whole "Tarn" thing has so many ways it can swing it is unreal, let alone how Roberts is viewing all this. Looking at us like "you guys have it right, now figure out which and why I would actually allow that to happen." It has been literal toying with us all season 2.

[Grimlarz]

I'm sure it's been said a thousand times... But damn... I really want a Tarn figure. Like Really Really bad.

Yeah... have to agree there.

I' unfortunately unable to witty any longer. My 3rd shift nightmare ended this past weekend... but now I can't get my sleep over to a day schedule so i'm soooo tired

All will be ok.

MTMTE will be out soon enough, so joy may be restored with the reading of a double issue though!

I lean either way. I think it's Roller. That's going to be some story to tell though. My guess is that Megatron recruited him when he was "lost" during the war. He felt betrayed by his friend Pax, continued his drug habits and found the same leader in Megatron that he once felt for Pax. Now that Megatron has defected to the autobots, Tarn is coming to collect him for answers or just outright destroy him.

While there are no comics planned for the coming week, we do have an initial look at the second part of the Dying of the Light in More Than Meets the Eye #51 - courtesy as usual of IDW's Mariel Romero via iTunes. Check it out below, and come back for a full preview in a couple of weeks!

"If you want to break someone—mentally, physically, emotionally—wait until they're happy. Let them live and love and thrive. Once they recognize the value of a life well lived... THAT'S when you move in for the kill. Because you can't take anything from someone who has nothing to lose." --Tarn

[D-Maximal_Primal]

So we are setting up for a nighttime battle eh? cool. And somehow Ten is going to be a key part of what is about to come

[Whifflefire]

I totally forgot about Velocity...

Megs is definitely regretting a lot now. Wonder what his and Tarn's confrontation will be like.

I'm thinking Megatron getting the scrap beat out of him. But he won't get killed. Tarn will beat him, leave him alive, and then try to kill everyone else before Megatron dies

[Ballistic90]

Eventually i will need to buy all of More Than Meets the Eye. It is consistently interesting.

[Quint]

Wait, wait, wait... they launch a devastating attack that knackers destroys their ship, severs limbs then... leave them alone holed up in a building for 8 hours...

Tarn obviously never watched the A Team then...

Same, but I was wondering more about what they'd say to each other. How might he react to Tarn still following Megatron's cause, but not Megatron himself? Would he try to convince the DJD to abandon the cause as well, or will they not care, and try to kill him anyway?
