Previewsworld.com has a preview for the upcoming second issue of “Ironhide”.

Stranded on modern-day Cybertron, Ironhide discovers he’s the only functioning life-form on the planet. Oh, except for the Swarm. So things could be going better. Much better. It’s times like these that Ironhide would much rather be rusting in a scrap pile. Writer Mike Costa continues to put the fallen (now resurrected?) Autobot through some strange paces. Features stunning art by Casey Coller!

Ironhide #2 is due at retail on Wednesday June 2nd.

Comic Book Resources has posted a preview of Transformers #7 and an interview with Mike Costa.

May sees the return of two major characters to the Transformers universe – one good, one very, very evil. Earlier this month, IDW Publishing released “Transformers: Ironhide” #1, sparking the return of the popular Autobot who died in the first issue of the current “Transformers” ongoing series. Next week’s “Transformers” #7 follows the Decepticons exiled in space, who are floundering under Starscream’s weak leadership…but Megatron still functions and may soon reclaim his place at the top. CBR News spoke with Mike Costa, who writes both series, about the recent and upcoming changes in the Transformers line.

Transformers #7 is due out next week.
