Spotlight: Arcee The spotlight falls on ARCEE, AUTOBOT by allegiance but utterly mad, bad, and dangerous to know! Driven by personal demons, waging a war against an enemy that may only exist in her head, ARCEE is considered too dangerous to ever be let loose. But desperate times call for desperate measures! By Simon Furman and Alex Milne, who provides two special covers for the issue.

Spotlight: Blaster The spotlight falls now on BLASTER, the rousing, bombastic ‘voice’ of the AUTOBOT counter-offensive. Long ago, that ‘voice’ was abruptly, mysteriously silenced, and now the truth about what happened to BLASTER—and who betrayed him and the AUTOBOTS—is about to be revealed, with shocking consequences! By Simon Furman and, making his IDW TRANSFORMERS debut, artist Emiliano Santalucia (He-Man). Alex Milne provides a special retailer incentive cover.

Spotlight: Ramjet Spinning out of the hit miniseries New Avengers/Transformers! Meet RAMJET, a lone wolf DECEPTICON whose plans involve nothing less than the overthrow of MEGATRON himself! But is RAMJET the master schemer he believes, or just another pretender to the throne? Written by Stuart Moore (New Avengers/The Transformers) with art by Robby Musso (The Transformers Spotlight: Ultra Magnus)!

Spotlight: Optimus Prime Finally the spotlight falls on OPTIMUS PRIME, the towering figurehead of the entire TRANSFORMERS race. To those under his command, he is an island, forever stood apart, aloof. In times of dire personal crisis he has no one to turn to... save one. Guest-starring OMEGA SUPREME! Classic TRANSFORMERS artist Don Perlin returns to the fold with a special incentive cover, too! Written by Simon Furman and illusrated by Don Figueroa.

Spotlight: Galvatron Here he is—GALVATRON, the most enigmatic (and deadly!) DECEPTICON of all! Driven by destiny, sculpted by fate, he is the emissary, the harbinger of an encroaching darkness that will soon envelop the entire TRANSFORMERS universe! By Simon Furman and Guido Guidi, with a variant cover by Alex Milne (The Transformers: Megatron Origin).

Spotlight: Kup Artist Nick Roche goes his Transformers Spotlights (SHOCKWAVE, HOT ROD) one better here, this time tackling full scripting duties along with handling the art chores on a special issue featuring the one and only KUP! In this Spotlight on the grizzled old TRANSFORMER, KUP finds himself stranded, facing shutdown, and fighting evil that just might be all in his mind. Alex Milne joins the cause, too, presenting a special variant cover that shows just what KUP is up against in this Spotlight.

Spotlight: Soundwave Presenting the next triumphal one-shot focusing on some of the best-loved (or loathed) characters from the TRANSFORMERS Universe. The spotlight falls on SOUNDWAVE, the DECEPTICON intelligence officer with a knack of, first and foremost, looking out for number one! Confronted (on Earth, in 1984!) by an impending catastrophe only he can avert, will SOUNDWAVE, for once, consider the bigger picture? By Simon Furman and Marcelo Matere.

Spotlight: Ultra Magnus As the spotlight falls on ULTRA MAGNUS, the AUTOBOTS' implacable, upstanding long arm of the (intergalactic) law. But now—in pursuit of his "most wanted" (and elusive) adversary—just how far (outside the law) is MAGNUS willing to go? By Simon Furman (The Transformers: Stormbringer) and Robby Musso. Escalation cover artist Klaus Scherwinski provides a variant cover, too.

Spotlight: Sixshot When the spotlight falls on SIXSHOT, the DECEPTICONS' living weapon—teetering on the edge of a potentially catastrophic mental breakdown—goes in search of the TERRORCONS, the mysterious REAPERS and, perhaps, redemption. Written by Simon Furman and featuring pencils, inks, and colors by Rob Ruffolo. James Raiz once again provides a variant cover.

Spotlight: Hot Rod The spotlight falls on HOT ROD, as the daredevil AUTOBOT undertakes a solo mission firmly filed and stamped: impossible! But what is the Magnificence, and how does it all connect with HOT ROD's first—disastrous—mission? By Simon Furman (The Transformers: Stormbringer) and Nick Roche (Transformers Spotlight: Shockwave). Veteran TF artist James Raiz provides a variant cover, too.

Spotlight: Nightbeat The spotlight falls on NIGHTBEAT, as he investigates one of the greatest Cybertronian mysteries... the disappearance of the first ARK! However, some mysteries, it seems, are better left unsolved! Guest-starring... the MICROMASTERS?! By Simon Furman (The Transformers: Stormbringer) and Mark Bright (Iron Man, Quantum & Woody).

Spotlight: Shockwave The spotlight falls on SHOCKWAVE as the coldly logical DECEPTICON undertakes a plan of devastating scope and ambition, one that will send shockwaves through the entire saga, including the Stormbringer and Escalation series and beyond! Guest-starring... the DINOBOTS! By Simon Furman (The Transformers: Stormbringer) and Nick Roche (Transformers: Generations).
