Two of my favourite ghoulish images from the original Marvel UK Transformers run. The post-Underbase afflicted Starscream, originally drawn by Andrew Wildman, and Nightmare Soundwave (DRILLFINGERS!) that Will Simpson cooked up.

These (AND MORE!) for €40 each on my store! nickrocheart.bigcartel.com

Can't believe he'd openly lie like that. Jim Lee, hesitate? I know he's trying to reassure but COME ON, JIM. At least be realistic.

Aw man, sifting back through the book for moments like this to draw, those guys nailed it.

I have some of the original pages from that last ep of Time Wars! In storage right now, but I own some OG Sullivan face trauma. My sense of entitlement sated for once.

Thanks for the orders on these suckers, all! Sending out the first batch this afternoon! Just a note though: I'm unable to dispatch anything to Canada right now due to their postal strike. I CAN send it once the strike is over, but An Post won't process it right now.

The rest of ya, fill thy boots!
