SPOTLIGHT: MIRAGE
Transformers newcomer George Strayton provides an all-too-brief glimpse of a world, and a Mirage, where all is not as it seems. Separated by some kind of harmonic phasing cross-dimensional mirror, "Spotlight: Mirage" dabbles with an alternate reality story dictated by the titular character's choices.

SPOTLIGHT: ARCEE
They say the Pit has no fury like a woman scorned, and with that in mind, IDW Publishing unleash the ever-controversial Arcee into their world. The once kind token female Autobot baby-sitter has been reinvented with an almighty microchip on her shoulder.

SPOTLIGHT: BLASTER
Blaster makes a most impressive debut into the new Transformers storyline, and Simon Furman has added extra depth and charisma to an already well-established persona.

FLIGHT OF THE NAVIGATOR Gratuitous product placement was rife in movies, even in the 80s! Have a closer look at this screenshot of the 1987 film, "Flight of the Navigator"

THE ASCENDING
"The Ascending" is a perilous trek through the thick vines and exposed, slippery roots of the Nostalgia Jungle. It brings back painful memories of turn-of-the-century convention stories such as "Reaching the Omega Point", "Alignment", and the various post-Beast Machines "Universe" stories, all dealing with the ascension to godhood, the destruction of order and the reign of chaos.
