Previews World has revealed the Transformers #15 Retailer Incentive Cover By Luca Pizzari for your viewing pleasure.
We have a great and shocking cover showing Megatron attacking Shockwave while Sixshot and Slipstream seem to try to stop the ruthless Decepticon Leader. Yes, it’s time for the Decepticons to take control now.
Transformers #15
(W) Brian Ruckley (A) Anna Malkova, Bethany McGuire-Smith (CA) Luca Pizzari
A conspiracy unravels. The Autobots race to restore order. Megatron reaches his breaking point and Shockwave finds himself broken. There are no more Ascenticons. There is no more Rise. There are only… The Decepticons.

Slipstream was namedropped earlier but still excited to see her here since she wasn't in the old IDW continuity.

I'd be OK with snarky female seeker, but snarky female bad guy is such a worn out trope that it's got holes in it and is being used as a dog blanket. Every female Decepticon/Transformer bad guy is a snarker, because apparently being sick of everyone else's shit regardless of whether it's warranted or not is "evil".
Well, except for Strika.

Yeah, Cyberverse is about the first time she's got personality other than snarky female Seeker. I'd be fine with IDW keeping her Cyberverse personality and building upon it.
ProtectronPrime
I kinda like her Cyberverse characterization. It's at least somewhat nuanced as she's this sort of harried, put upon, but brutish and hamfisted woman. It's not an uncommon archetype these days (Steven Universe has done it better) but it suits her better than the one billionth sassy, sarcastic Decepticon female.
More importantly, the perspective in that cover makes her look like she's got one long-ass gorilla arm.
Also, more Shockwave/Megatron conflict. #Yay. Good to see we're treading new, innovative ground, IDW2.
Haywired
Shlipshthream.
So… She's going to get, like, characterisation?

I'm figuring it's a homage to Marvel's Transformers #6

Can’t wait till this is incredibly cheap in postage so I can bug some from Australia.
OH WAIT

Ya'll already know the Ascenticons and Rise are just going to be looking like this in the background while Megatron rips out Shockwaves innards.
