iTunes has dropped in and given us a 3-page preview for the upcoming IDW Lost Light #1! The preview stars 3 bots altogether, one of which is clearly bad and loves giant mechsuits while the other 2 might be explorers of sorts. Check out the 3 page preview below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!
Five years ago, Rodimus and a collection of traumatised, lovelorn and/or sarcastic Autobots set off on a quest to find Cyberutopia. So far, they've made a right hash of it. They've misplaced their map. They've lost their ship, the Lost Light, to a mutinous escapologist. Oh, and they're dead.

Has anyone else noticed the new Transformers comics have gotten a little "homoerotic" lately?

Someone mentioned the "H" word (guess it was deleted) but the Tall bot actually looks kinda female to me.

No lips, though. MTMTE tends to have it's females with feminine lips, and sorta eyelashes.

Think IDW's first issue to their new comic series Lost Light; the sequel to the critically-acclaimed More Than Meets The Eye penned by James Roberts can't get any more covers? Well, think again! Straight from RIPT Apparel - the company responsible for the awesome MTMTE/My Chemical Romance shirt earlier this year and another exclusive cover for Optimus Prime #1 - comes a new exclusive cover for Lost Light's first issue; featuring Team Rodimus guns blazing in an epic homage to the iconic poster for 1986's The Transformers: The Movie. Check the full cover out below and tell us what you think in the forums!

I actually don't like the IDW stories. I stopped reading them altogether, but I have bought issues for the cover art, and this will probably be one of them. It's nicely done, but I am wondering about the colors? Is this related to Shattered Glass somehow

Do you mean Hot Rod's colors? We don't know yet what they mean. So far all of the covers featuring him have had him as blue instead of red for some reason that I imagine will be explained once the issue launches.

You read my mind about Nightbeat!
I want Roddy's colors to go back, he looks either emo or Decepticon. I guess I can tolerate it but I just miss the red and gold. It suits his personality better I think.

Yeah, I found it weird that Rewind's in a group shot but not Domey. And Cyclonus without Tailgate.
Lovers' quarrels I guess.

Yeaaaah, I'm not really fond of this cover. It's pretty bland with nothing really going on, Rodimus' pose is really weird, and instead of representing the Megatron we actually have it basically shows G1 cartoon Megatron with a Fusion Cannon that got shrunk in the wash. Gimme RIPT's movie cover over this any day.

You are misunderstanding something. This is Megatron a few million years in the future when he was too weak to hold a bigger cannon and still look epic.

Never trust a comic book cover. I learnt that from reading Marvel, LoL
Well, unless it's a Rocket Racoon comic, then the giant space laser he's holding while riding a elephant will probably feature in the story

1) I'm not sure Anode is female, especially given that this is set during the war. The body leans that way, but the face is more androgynous.
2) Pretty sure Anode is not an Autobot. No symbols, and the talk of returning to Cybertron and "partisan kneecaps" pegs them as neutrals.

I swear to Primus if they made Megatron a Decepticon again just to sell toys and rendered his entire Season Two story arc obsolete and pointless I may be done with this comic.
Ravage's death actually made a 40-year-old man cry over a book about cartoon robots, and what it meant for Megatron was a huge part of that. They better not let Hasbro shard all over it.
There's three incentive covers with him wearing the purple symbol and none in red. Hashtag angry.

This was only 500 years ago. Colony worlds with female Transformers were established millions of years ago.
