UPDATED 6/13/07: Preview/Images of Megatron: Origin up at IDW
I apologize in advance if this does not constitute as "news" worthy....edit: okay, I guess it is news.
Lurking, as I tend to do, around the IDW forums, I stumbled upon some new line-art images for the upcoming Megatron:Origin.

I think I too am falling for all the hype surrounding this mini-series. Which reminds me, I need to make an order for the 4-issue subscription. Hopefully it will live up to the hype......
**recalls hype around some of the DW stories**
Just noticed that Megatron's fellow constructionists all have the same bucket-head helmets as he does. Yes, a meaningless observation, but an interesting one nonetheless.
Yes - yes, you should. It'll make me feel less foolish for worrying about posting content.
There's some fantastic work by Roche up there as well, particularly the re-done pages of Target: 2006. Wonderful.

while surfing that IDW page, i saw some cool Classics inspired art, too. Not sure if it's just are of stuff for the upcoming collector club comic.

Looks good so far.
Minor observation: Based on that first pic, it looks like he's a miner holding some kind of energy pick-axe while holding a chunk of something (Energon?). I don't know if there're any differences between a miner and a construction bot in the IDW-verse (meaning both functions can be performed by the same bot) though.

Worryingly, that's exactly what it looks like.

redman, I'm pretty sure that's not Scourge. More likely Sentinel Prime.
see, that's a thing that is said nicely. I thought it could be sentinel prime, to be fair, but it really had the whole head/mustahce of Scourge...
Just pointing it out. some people have only seen the movie and G1 cartoons, so you can't hold me accountable
and going for a cheap laugh, on my account
life is great. then you die and leave everything to your wife.
No, can't say that I did. Care to point us in the right direction?Originally posted by Dreadwing
Anyone notice the cameo by Armada Megatron in the last panel of page 2?
Has that term existed beyond the G1 mythos? If it did/does, I assume it is "golden'" in a figurative sense - i.e, referring to a time of peace, when there was no conflict ("the good ol' days"), rather than literally being gold - i.e. furnished like Donald Trump's mansion.Also, shouldnt cybertron be golden? Assumeing the golden age even exists in the new IDW universe.

I would've thought it was gilded, just to cut down on the overhead..
you know, for combover space.
a double entendre, for those scoring at home
EDIT: it isn't good to re-read your own jokes and cringe, is it?
