There's also this book up on Amazon:
Rom vs The Transformers: Shining Armor Paperback – March 13, 2018
Meet the universe's only Cybertronian Solstar Knight! Hundreds of years ago, Rom discovered Stardrive, the sole survivor of a doomed space probe. Stardrive committed herself to protecting the galaxy from the Dire Wraiths… but when the Decepticon called Starscream makes a deadly deal, Rom and the Transformers are forced into a collision course… with Stardrive caught between two worlds!

According to Milne and Perez on Twitter, this is their cover for issue 8.

Very pretty! I guess the cover ties into the 8&9 solicits about Nautica paying in the ultimate currency. Not gonna lie, when the solicits for these issues came out, I thought it was referring to happiness or knowledge.
Although… I got to admit that I'm a wee bit bothered by this. I don't want to downplay Nautica's grief, because she did care so much about Skids, and there was some romantic feelings hinted at, but It feels a bit like her pain is getting more focus than some of the other characters. She wasn't the only one in Skids' life and, honestly, there are some characters who had more of an on-page connection to him.
Swerve and Skids, for instance, had an entire issue dedicated to their friendship and how Skids realised he wasn't treating Swerve right. Or Rung, after building up a friendship over the course of the entire series, was hit so hard by Skids' death that he created a crystal. His duplicate did the same thing but only after two million years of torture. The comparison is pretty evident.
Ah well, we'll see how it plays out.

Maybe this time I'll skip TPBs and order this one straightaway. The last MTMTE in my possession is Vol.7, I think @_@

I think that some edition of the trade (the trade goes until the number 12) will be about how they feel about the death of Skids and Nautica will play an important role.
