Stadium Comics Website have just unveiled their exclusive variant cover for Unicron #01, and we are sure it will please many fans.
This cover is a great homage to the movie poster for the original 1986 The Transformers Movie by artist Alex Milne. Popular characters from IDW Transformers titles: Pyra Magna, Arcee, Bumblebee, Soundwave and Optimus Prime among others, recreate this classic poster.
If this cover please your optics, take in consideration that this is a limited edition of only 500 copies. Expected for release on July 18, 2018. You can check out the mirrored cover after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

You're just Japanphobic against Megaempress

Good god, Megaempress?! No! I want nothing to do with Sakamoto! And since there is no such thing as "Man-Cee", I'm just going to assume you're making up weird transphobic OCs now.

why does this look so familiar, oh right the movie poster~~
Uncle Yetibacca
Yeah but still, it wouldn't have hurt to have the whole team for the one TRUE final adventure.
Deadend
Kind of fitting with the title "Lost Light" though.
Uncle Yetibacca

I've actually had a few ideas on the identity of the Arisen. The "Truth" of the 13th Prime (IDW)

Interesting on the pricing… spend $44.99 and it's like getting a third copy for $5…

cover's flipping nice tho
even if it does drive home a bit how sad it is that we won't be getting anyone who's busy on cyberutopia involved in this
sharkrainbow
…what even WAS that?
jackgaughan
Oh man, aren't you just a wee charmer eh?

If only the content would be as good as the cover art.

More epic retro covers.
Toolala
Yeah I bet you'd like to be stuck with masculine Megaempress and Man-cee, wouldn't you?
Murasame
Pre-ordered. This will look good next to my Lost Light #1
Although I thought, it would be enough to just print the cover and frame it…
Deadend
"Arise Arceus Prime."
And she is as old as Cyclonus, possibly even older. Plus she was on the poll. Would be a great place to show off that design of what her as a Prime could have looked like. Extra interesting if she was the real "Arisen" too since they never actively confirmed Optimus was, only hinted at it/had A3's interest in Optimus as the reason, and tbh, if the Arisen's spark was "reborn" from the well, it'd likely be first gen cybertronians born from the well, which is closer to IDW Arcee.

Just ordered my copy. Normally I never place an order for a single issue by any particular artist, but I guess there's always a first time. Also, because I won't be going to any TF Cons or any meetups where Alex may have this cover in a nice print format, so $25~ish after shipping is an okay consolation to me.

Great artwork (though i prefer the actual movie cast lineup).
