If you’re like me and you’re counting down the freaking days to the release of the new Transformers movie and July seems way too far away to get your greedy little robotic mayhem fix, then I bring you tiddings of good new my international friends… sort of.
It seems starting in Fegruary, they are releasing a 4 part comic story entitled “Transformers: The Movie Prequel”. And you know what… it sounds pretty good. The good folks over at Coming Soon give us this:
“This is no peripheral movie tie-in,” said co-writer Chris Ryall (who also spends his days as IDW’s publisher and editor-in-chief. “Rather, it’s a fully realized, generations-spanning tale that also sets up and explains much of the backstory in the coming movie. With Paramount and Hasbro’s assistance, we’re able to show you the characters and explain some situations that are integral parts of the movie. It should also assuage any early fan trepidation and show that this prequel and the movie together are going to comprise quite an epic Transformers story.”
So there you have it. The question I have for you guys is:
1) Do you care?
2) You’d love to read it, but don’t want to see a thing till the movie.
3) Will buy it the moment it hits the shelves?
