Apple’s iTunes has updated with a preview of Unicron issue 4. Cybertron’s darkest hour is come – Unicron has arrived. This is a story of heroes, and a desperate fight to save all creation. Will anyone survive to tell the tale? You’ll have to pick up issue 4 to find out where it goes from here – but to get you excited, here’s a short preview of things to come.

Now I have to try to find a decent passable version to match her IDW look – dammit!

With Optimus Prime involved, the fate of Cyberton has never been in doubt ……
Wait…. wrong universe or ….. is it?
Edit: I suspect the involvement of Michael Bay somewhere.

That's true. It would be hard to distinguish them. I just thought since the Eukarians have more metal-like beast modes and the Maximals are more organic-like they would be an obvious difference between them.

Only a few characters (and us, the audience) know about the whole "Liege Maximo's Maximals" deal. And even then, exactly what distinguishes the Maximals from regular Eukarians aside from their transformation is iffy. After all, Centurion and the Axalon crew were said to be Maximals, but they don't have that transformation ability.
T-Wrecks
It kinda bugs me how they keep mistaking the Maximal as "rogue/zombie" Eukarians, when clearly they served Liege Maximo and hid under their bestial disguises. Seems like they still have the stigma against bestial transformers.

Darn what a way to go Blurr that’s gotta be one of the bast death’s I’ve seen in the IDW continuity. Nice to see Strongarm too one of the few characters I actually enjoyed in RID

If this was the actual ending to Unicron and I knew it for certain, I would buy 100 copies of the conclusion just on principle.

Oh, fuck me! Dammit, Blurr was was in my top 5 favs in the IDW-verse! Him, Starscream, Prowl, Drift, and Ratchet were there, with Prowl, Starascream, and Blurr being the top 3.
Fuck, first Mirage and Nightbeat, now Blurr…Shit, and this was my favorite version of Blurr too. I actually asked Alex Milne about this two months ago when he said he had just finished drawing a character going out a "hero's death".

Well, Blurr…You almost made it…You just had to stay alive for three more issues and you'd be in the clear, but you had to go and play the damn hero. RIP, buddy…
Megastar
That would be awesome.
Nerdicon
Damn. Ow… My feelings.

BLURR – NOOOOOOOO!

Cr@p, I was not expecting that at all!

Calling it now for
for best Unicron moment next to the titular character transforming "The Movie" style. Damn that hurt to see.

Love those Blur pages. It's such a perfect "Flash finale" that really gives him a wow moment before the end. And really even kind of gives him a Barry Allen like end.
Also, really loved seeing Strongarm added to IDW too. Makes me want a premium paint app version of her RiD figure.
Or it's a reminder of how thin the line is of logic for him to become like
So the missing eye is a reminder to watch his step to not become the thing he's been fighting against that he's been questionably on the line of for so long.

Isn’t it obvious? “Prowl” is actually…

It's Prowl's version of the Universal Greeting. Ba Weep Grana Weep POW!! Right in the socket!

When insignia feels the pain and the death of its host…

what if everyone who got teleported away don't realize that it was Blur who saved them and think the Visionaries' Magic just pulled them into the ribbon and not him

I Love the updated G.i. Joe HQ.

Every time he recruits someone, they just punch him in the face
