Here are a few related questions for Mr McCarthy;

1. In the press release it states that AHM will include 'an all-new Transformers character' is this character a Transformer?

2. If the answer to the above is 'yes', does 'all-new' mean a character that has never before existed in any form or does it just mean new to the idw continuity?

Finally, (this is my real question because I suspect I know the answers to the above but thought I should include them to be absolutely clear) 3. What is the rationale behind the inclusion of this character, in general, rather than specific, terms?

I'm not asking this as a complaint, but simply because I'm interested in his thoughts as a writer.

My question is a general one.

In what direction are you planning on taking the Transformers in terms of writing? In other words, is there something different you're shooting for in comparison to what we've seen from IDW the past two years?

1. When can we expect news about 'The 13' story?
2. Will it be released during the AHM series or after?

Thanks!

More questions:

1) Are Verity and Jimmy on Earth or did the Autobots blast off with them? If they are in Earth will they appear in AHM?

2) What's the chances of Galvatron and Scorpy appearing?

LOL that's funny! Unmasks Scorponok to reveal Dante... "I would have gotten away with it if it weren't for you pesky Autobots"

Focus On... was anticipated to be shipping this week, 26/3. With it missing from Diamond's list, the Q and A will obviously be pushed back a week, til it comes out.
Please keep the questions coming though, there's some really interesting ones so far.

Two more.
1. Why did it take so long for someone to come up with the 'Transforumer' title. (hehe)
2. Have you ever looked at the Mosaics for potential talent. (someone else wanted to ask this, but didn't want it showing under their name. So I said I'd ask)
