Out of curiosity, what happened with that comic line ? I started buying them up not to long ago and noticed they just stop.

Were they unpopular ? Are more coming ?

Thanks

I think I saw on TNIs comics site that there was aonther one coming based off the first one. Magmatron sees that cybertron and the universe is going to be destroyed some how and calls upon the maxies from the last book to stop it or something

It was supposed to be a 4-issue mini, that's all.

There's a followup mini coming out this fall, as well as, at long last, the profile books that have been heavily delayed.

I loved the first set of books. Very happy with what they did for the characters and the story. I am looking forward to what they may do with it next.

IDW seem to be using the lisence very different than Dreamwave did. I like where they are going with the stories and it does not seem to be overwhelming as it did with a lot of the Dreamwave stuff.

I totally agree! The toys I saw on the shelves just didn't do anything for me. Granted, I was not really back into collecting at the time of Beast Wars, but I did enjoy the show. I thought the characters they developed there, and continue to do so with the comic are great.

To be fair though... did we REALLY need Grimlock in another TF book?
