Sorry for not giving much commentary on this one, I'm not big on IDW Furman

It's bizarre to me that Furman apparently didn't realise that, as of late 2006, the Soviet Union didn't still exist.

The art here is fantastic, but the fact that the second panel reads right-to-left confuses me every time.

Can always justify as a alternate universe.

The Soviet Union still existed in G1 I believe like post time skip.

Well, the trade edited every mention of "Soviet" to "Russian", so it seems like it was an error.

Posting a couple of Spotlights - specifically "Soundwave gets a bunch of characterisation that'll be ignored down the line" and "Kup goes off the deep end" - and then next thread will be the Bendisvengers crossover.

Ah, yes, Soundwave. The self-interested, manipulative schemer. I'm sure that won't be contradicted in future.

anyone got head canon voices, here are mine:

Peter Cullen - Optimus
Jeffrey Combs - Ratchet
Jim Cummings - Ironhide (doing a southern accent of course)
David Kaye - Prowl (in his Optimus voice)
Phil LaMarr - Jazz
Chris Latta or Christopher Swindle - Wheeljack (alternates between the two)
Vic Mignogna - Sunstreaker
Kirby Morrow - Hot Rod
Steve Blum - Nightbeat
Michael J. Gough - Hardhead (in his Lt. Steele voice from Ben 10)

Frank Welker - Megatron (usually i hear Corey Burton in later IDW but here it's Welker)
Jack Angel - Astrotrain
Crispin Freeman - Thundercracker
Scott Whyte - Skywarp
Bumper Robinson - Blitzwing (just the Hothead voice)
Tom Kenny & Reno Wilson - Runamuck & Runabout
Jeff Bennett - Soundwave (can't imagine Welker as comic Soundwave, Soundwave is too talkative)
Keith Ferguson - Bludgeon (Reaper from Overwatch)
Dameon Clarke - Sixshot (Toguro from Yu Yu Hakusho)

Janet Varney - Verity Carlo
Sam Vincent - Hunter O'Nion (in his Giovanni voice from Death Note)
Brent Miller - Jimmy Pink

And that's it for this thread. Up next time: superheroes! After that, we'll step away from Transformers for a while to take a look at the early days of some real American heroes.
