Transformers legendary writer Simon Furman has updated his blog with an entry on IDWs next Transformers movie universe mini-series, Transformers: Nefarious. You can read a copy of the entry below, but visit Simon's blog to view he cover and to leave him and comments and feedback
"the news is out, my next series for IDW will be Transformers: Nefarious,
a six-issue movie continuity mini-series that picks up from the end of
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and introduces an all-new adversary
for the Transformers (Autobot and Decepticon) in the shape of
a mysterious, far-reaching and very powerful group of humans with
access to enhanced Transformer-tech and maybe even the odd actual
Transformer! Seeds for the new series will be sown in the final Tales
of the Fallen issue, Ravage, and he (along with Soundwave) play key
roles in the unfolding drama. Expect lots more character depth and
exploration for both. Actually, make that all characters. We’re going
to be highlighting some Autobots and Decepticons that did and didn’t
make it into the second movie and many, just maybe, throwing in the odd
new character too! Plus, we’ll be exploring the post-movie NEST/Autobot
human alliance in more detail too! For more info check out the IGN
interview I did recently (see link in update below). Transformers:
Nefarious kicks in shortly after Tales of the Fallen #6: Ravage. Don’t
miss either!"
