Following our report from earlier today about the December 2018 IDW solicitations, Transformers artist and TFCon Chicago 2018 guest Sara Pitre-Durocher shared a gorgeous Historia artwork treat:
I’ve had the absolute privilege of creating the cover for the Transformers Historia, written by Chris McFeely
How many favorite characters can you identify? See the artwork attached to this post and then join in the discussion on the 2005 boards!

Man, that retailer incentive cover of Trek/Transformers has my mind blown.

Sigh, I’m late. But is that green guy inbetween Aileron and Arcee meant to be Devastator? If so, he looks different than I remembered. Also an awesome cover!
Sol Fury
That's enough guys, please get back on topic.

You're dismissing a huge, elaborate database maintained by a plethora of people who devote a shitload of their spare time without getting a dime in return because one guy with whom you have a beef for whatever reason is involved.
Then again, you seem to think keeping track of details is "boring" and "useless", so that's probably par for the course.
Remind me again, when was the last time you contributed to this fandom in a productive manner besides dismissing other people's work because of some personal grievance?

Pointing out Walky's involvement in something as undesirable by many people isn't necessarily a smug action.

Oh sweet. I like his Basics videos. And I like her art. I may pick this up.

I agreed initially that this Historia wouldn't be much good to those that already have all the comics. However, I've come to realize that it will be a handy quick reference plot guide so you don't have to go searching through all of those many details for some plot point you can't quite remember.
Nevermore
Didn't this begin with you insulting Walky?

What was that about being smug?

Bumblebee: Go for the Gold! Is something I highly anticipate on the back of the terrific first book.

No, Thursdays are reserved for dealing with smug jerks who accuse other people who are into the same nerdy hobby of being nerds for contributing to the fandom without looking for immediate personal gain.

Don't you have boring copyright entries to plug into your gigantic book of Useless Transformers Information and Factoids?

Anode got her own space and Tarn or Prowl didn’t. I’m furious
On a more serious note though, that cover is amazing. Absolutely impeccable. Well done on creating his masterpiece
Heliblade
I love how Ironfist got his own space. He\'s been dead for eight years but he still matters.
TFlovins
Beautiful! Love this picture, might be my new favorite.
Dark Prime
Dat is Lit

I don't care about Anode and Lug either but they're important because they're the first orignal characters to be Trans, which is a pretty big deal.

That Optimus Prime picture with the Star Trek cast looks like something off land of the giants

That is one truly spectacular piece of artwork it kinda reminds me of the Unicron #6 cover in a way, but in a more positive light. Can\'t wait to read the book.
