The comic is written by John-Paul Bove and drawn by the very talented Corin Howell. If you've been following the IDW comics, those names should be very familiar to you! Also familiar to you will be the comic's setting - it is set in the same Beast Wars expanded universe as IDW's two Beast Wars titles: The Ascending and The Gathering!
The first printing of Dawn of the Predacus will be available at BotCon and feature an exclusive cover as well as all of the convention program and event information.
For fans of both Beast Wars and G1, Dawn of Predacus is set during the last 48 hours of the Great War...
The story is completely in continuity (the wibbly wobbly G1, G2, BW continuity) and features some HUGE moments in TF history.

Well, at least this time we can't blame Fun Pub for this since this is all IDW's handiwork.Flux Convoy wrote:Just... WTeverlovingF is that? Are you kidding?

There's still a lot of time between here and the Beast Wars (and here and The Rebirth)

And only one of them is a CW Deluxe mold. The other three are a non-CW Deluxe mold (who is a Maximal), the centerpiece Transmetal 3 Megatron, and the troop builder set consisting of a CW Legends mold.
