Back in July we found out the fans won out with their demand to continue the original Transformers comic series, picking up from issue 81.

That book is being “ReGeneration One” and is being written by longtime TF scribe Simon Furman with Andrew Wildman providing artwork in his original early 90s style. IDW comics publisher Chris Ryall has tweeted a colored interior page of the book without text. Ultra Magnus makes his US debut and Optimus Prime retains his Action Master form in this direct continuation of the events in the Marvel Transformers comic #80.

See here the cover and that interior page from issue 80.5, available on Free Comic Book Day

Fellow Poweteer, Dez, has shared a custom Defensor he made in his spare time. There are lots of pictures from all angles in the thread he posted here.

He’s actually put it on e-bay too. You can see the auction here.

It’s the clash of two completely unrelated sci fi franchises as Robocop himself, Peter Weller, join the cast of Star Trek for J.J. Abrams’ sequel to the 2009 reboot and theatrical hit! Peter Weller was in a few of the last episodes of Star Trek Enterprise, though that will surely have nothing to do with his role in this film.

Also announced to join the cast a few days ago was Alice Eve. She’s pretty, and I haven’t seen her in a thing because she hasn’t played a cyborg in any movies… yet! To learn more about her try 10 seconds doing a google image search with safe search off.

You’re welcome.

It’s about a month before MAGFest 2012. We’re going to get you excited for a new convention season by taking a look back at last year’s MAGFest.

This week, we find that Sean was often confused for Noah “The Spoony One” at last year’s convention. Actually, this footage is mostly from PAX East 2010, but that’s another convention, so it’s all good, right?

Next time, we’ll let you see something you HAVEN’T seen before!

In 2009, Rocksteady developed the first good Batman game since the 16-bit days (okay, it was that but…) the best Batman game in recent history (okay, it was that too but…) the definitive Batman game (it was that until Arkham City was released earlier this fall) the second best Batman game ever. By taking cues from Bioshock, Metroid, and some of Marvel’s recent games, Batman Arkham Asylum puts players in the role of the Caped Crusader in a way that few games have done before. By presenting its own visual style and providing tons of fan service, Batman Arkham Asylum becomes one of the best comic-inspired games of this console generation.
