Thanks to 2005 Boards member The Kup we have a look at the new cover for IDW Transformers: Optimus Prime Volume #2 TPB.
We had previously reported a cover for this TPB with IDW January 2018 solicitations, but now a new cover is shown in IDW Website and Amazon.com. The cover by artist Priscilla Tramontano features Optimus Prime flanked by Pyra Magna and Jetfire. As 2005 Boards member Jalaguy points out, this art was orinally the retailer incentive cover of Optimus Prime #7.

Hmm, I didn\'t know this was news. I uploaded the cover to the TFwiki back on Jan 3.

I can sum up this series in 2 words.
\"Poor Optimus.\"

I don\'t know if I\'m alone, but I love this art style! I hope the artist does more than covers and the annual!

It's by Priscilla Tramontano, and was originally cover RI for OP #7. That's Jetfire down in the bottom corner.

Interesting. Who draws this cover? Who is the one in the lower left corner? Starscream?
