As for Infestation, not interested. Four of the largest franchises in sci-fi with zombies added in for extra nerdgasms just doesn't in the slightest interest me.

And I dig the "new" Megs' look, even if it'll last about as long as the pre-AHM TFs' looks did.

*scrolls down to Megatrons cover* *jaw left dropped to the ground*
I want to see more of that Megatron!!! It has Dons sign AND it has normal face, so... the King Returns with the classic looks?

And while Megatron looks nice (reminiscent Super Megatron from Japan)... I'm tired of every artist having to try their hand at redesigning the characters and transformations. It's so jarring... and odd to own the toy(s) and get a new comic with a different look almost every issue (not to mention flipped personalities... ie. Spike hates Autobots, etc.)
Please stick to the cartoon or toy look and transformation.

I remember someone commenting about how WFC soundwave doesn't get to change up and look awesome in new ways coz they always got to implement the yellow chest border. Well, if you change up the chest, you can keep the head and shoulder cannon, still would feel like soundwave (as long as the chest wasn't garbage instead). The Movie soundwave is an example of totaly killing the soundwave look. Zombies seem pretty pointless to add to Transformers, its too much of a threat to biological and not machine, which means... who cares... sure somthing like human zombies wouldn't be a threat to Transformers (but i'm sure they'll find some hairbrain way of twisting it all around to try and make it fit).

Applying any human terminology to robots seems pretty daft in regards to a 'serious' story line. Either their sparks are online or off, and in Galvatron and the others, its something different (more like a corrupt spark or some jibberjabber), hardly "zombies". Sorry if i'm dulling anyones enthusiasm for it to be good... just being honest.

Nope, it'll be his new look.

I like that idea a lot. It's like an updated version of the ATB Megatron from G2. Now i just reminded myself I have to hunt one of those suckers down to have a COMPLETE collection of Megatrons & Starscreams. My wallet will hate me for this.

Agreed. I really like his updated design; it's new, combines an original thought with a bit of reference, and while I abhor the movie aesthetic I do like how they're trying to make the transformers look more mechanical in the art. Hot diggety daffodil.
Also, I see Infestation being within the main storyline in the same way the New Avengers/Transformers crossover was part of the main storyline. Technically it's in there, technically some aspects of the later stories reference things that happened there, and technically it really sucked.

Yep; my opinion exactly.
