PREVIEWSworld has updated with solicitations for May’s Transformers comics. The solicits for April’s comics already made a lot of fans excited, and these don’t seem to be any less interesting.
Among them are the Dark Cybertron follow-up comics united by the Dawn of the Autobots header: Transformers: More than Meets the Eye #29, Transformers: Robots in Disguise #29, and Windblade #2. Don’t miss out – be sure to purchase them, either physically or digitally, when they’re released this May!
The solicits contain SPOILERS for future events, but if you don’t mind, you can check out the full details (and the covers) after the jump! TRANSFORMERS MORE THAN MEETS EYE #29 DAWN O/T AUTOBOTS

STAND-OFF! While the crew of the Lost Light react to MEGATRON’s arrival with characteristic maturity (calling him names behind his back and ignoring him when he speaks) one AUTOBOT is convinced that a more direct approach is needed. Guess what happens when a one-time tyrant is told he’s not wanted? Yeah, exactly.

It's grown on me, the more I look at it the more I like it.

Interesting solicits. Windblade continues to look absolutely awful to me. Alex's cover is pretty bad (not his fault the character is a mess) but Stone's cover is terrible. A shame.
Rob
I would rather they each have their own continuities. Separate but equal you know what I mean?
Autovolt 127
Marissa Faireborn eh? Any chance of her being Flint and Lady Jaye's daughter in this continuity too?
Megatron and Tailgate will become the next best duo ever.
Fort Max
Hello sexy new prime, fingers crossed for a good new classics prime based on this.
QLRformer
Tailgate and Megatron. I can not wait to see this happen.
I thought for sure it would be Whirl, but I like the idea of Tailgate even more.
Omnius
Detonation Boulevard? Someone at IDW is a Sisters of Mercy fan then. I approve.
Sockie
Pretty sure it's him, yeah. He probably has a new design like everyone else.
Nope
Is that Needlenose on the RiD cover? Kinda looks like him but the tailfin is wrong.
Rob
Make toys Giant does look awesome.
You know I think the changes in the design is (hopefully) to better match up the design with a unannounced leader class toy.
Akumaxv
Was going to say something looks off about Fairbourne.
It's the stance and the fact that her entire lower torso seems too long to be natural. Very Leifeld-y.
Thundershot
Yes I had Maketoys Green Giant on the brain..
I see what you mean in the different features, but a lot of things look similar too.
I wouldn't object to him getting a leader class toy though.

That occurred to me as well; not sure why else the tank on the right would be purple.
Heh, he probably wouldn't (he didn't realize Orion and Optimus were the same 'bot at first), unless someone drew him a picture or clued him in ahead of time.
RetsyBoss
I have a sudden vision of Tailgate talking to Megatron and having no idea who he is.
Pravus Prime
Nobody is mentioning that Blitzwing is the tank on the right? Heck, for all we know, Brawl is the tank on the left. Fairborne is the human antagonist now? Ugh. Spike drove me away from getting any enjoyment out of the Earth comics last time around, I don't have high hopes for this one either.
Anyway, love the MTMTE cover with Megs and Tailgate. That is going to be so much fun!
Mako Crab
I like Stone's Windblade cover. Vibrant!
SPLIT LIP
Standing with your hips cocked to one side and leaning back is typically an uncomfortable thing to do.

It looks like soundwave will have a vehicle mode judging from the windshield wipers underneath his symbol.

On the plus side, at least she's not wearing lingerie armor!
Digilaut
How so?
