Bad Wolf Comics is showcasing their own Retailer Incentive Cover for Transformers: Lost Light issue #1.
“Transformers: Lost Light #1 is the first ever variant for Bad Wolf Comics. This cover features art by Sajad Shah and colors by Juan Fernandez“
Description:
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.
- The crew from MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE might be dead, but the LOST LIGHT lives on!
- Incredible artist Jack Lawrence (Skylanders, Micronauts) makes his Transformers debut with returning writer James Roberts (Transformers: MTMTE)
Transformers: Lost Light #1 will be available this Wednesday 14th December, 2016.

thats not Shattered Glass Rodimus though, its Black Rodimus Convoy (quite different z Black Rodimus Convoy – Transformers Wiki )QUOTE="Unicron9, post: 14161893, member: 81235"]Well of course I know about Shattered Glass Rodimus, but that's not what this is and the colors aren't the same anyway. He's not a Decepticon or alternate universe version now either.[/QUOTE]
in the actual book the paint scheme has a reason, which is different again.
Another reason why the IDW-Verse is in my opinion far and away the best depiction we have had so far of these bots.

i suspect megatron will try to reclaim the symbol at one point going back to the initial ideals so their will be three factions; the psycho decepticons, autobots, and megatrons pure decepticons
General Tekno
I wouldn't read too much into the cover, given it implies Megatron is now leading the MOVIE Decepticons.
TCracker
So, Megatron is back being a Decepticon now? Bwah or whut?

Ha!

It's indicative of IDW's ongoing policy of garbage variant covers.

My god people what did I say!
This cover is not indicative of anything that will happen inside the book!
(Except Rod's color scheme since that's on all the covers)

i guess you're right if you're blind anything can be the best since you can't see anything so everything is the same
kyPRIME
this cover pretty much sums up everyhting wrong with MTMTE
Splendic
Reminds me of a cross between Ulises Farinas work on Hearts of Darkness, and Figueroa's redesign.

Rodimus started listening to Six AM?

That is not Rodimus Prime. Please. This is why I don't read the comics. They take their creative license to extremes. I thought it was Windblade or some other unknown being crammed into G1. Look, you can create an entirely new universe and then fill it with whomever and whatever you want, but quit messing with the essential aesthetics of canonical characters.
That being said, for all I know this could precisely be one of those new universes, because, well, I don't read the comics.

Another awesome cover, those colors on Rodimus are really growing on me.
SouthtownKid
And I meant in terms of it being better than anything from other artists who actually attempted to make the characters look like the characters.
The face looks like nothing. Completely generic.
Nope. Not at all. Not that it should have anyway, but still.
Prime Noble
I meant the actual face with the cheek structure, optics and chin smartass.
SouthtownKid
I can see why you might think so if you were blind and someone was describing it to you verbally.
Prime Noble
I like the new look for Rodimus. The face really reminds me of his face in the 86 movie.
That cover art is better than anything Livio or Wildman ever gave us.

I\'m sorry if the artist is looking in, but this cover is garbage. No single proportion on Megatron is correct. Nor is Rodimus\'s face even close to on-model – though the rest of him could be equally wrong and we\'ve just not seen enough of it elsewhere to know. When they do so many variant covers for a title getting a forced reboot for the allegedly lucrative issue #1 cash, you know a fair number of them are going to be lesser quality than the norm.
