I'm assuming the Movie Sequel will fill in the gaps between Film 1 and Film 2!
Woo!

I assume it is just meant to keep a movie line of comics going and interest in movie characters.

this is a good idea. but maybe a possibility that they will take some of the ideas from the comic series into consideration in the sequel, fans seemed to have an impact on the first movie alot. either that, or IDW is just going to do its own movie series line, like they have their own g1 style line.

LOL!!!
Hey, the guys in Jackass made a career of it.
Though with a plithora of far more interesting characters to flesh out, one has to wonder how they singled out Ramjet. Did they throw darts or something?

Hey, it's one of Furman's stocks-in-trade, after all - take an underused, virtually unknown character* and turn them into a fan favourite... At the very least, provide some much-needed characterisation. I'm looking forward to this one.
*Though I imagine his recent release in the Classics line can only have helped Ramjet's selection chances.

Oh man... I had to re-read that twice because the first few times I thought it meant there was going to be a "very special issue" of Transformers where Ramjet "comes out".

My thoughts exactly.

Nice way to weave the Coneheads and Dreadwing/Darkwind into Devastation/Revelation!

ok stuarts writing him but im sure the big things have to be cleared by furman and hey i'll give any new writer a shot as we need em and eric's doing a fine job in the megatron series.
have to laugh though, everytime i think of ramjet i think of the DW 2nd g1 series and his opening splash page in one of the first 3 issues where he's trying to go up against the arks weaponry. fecking hysterical
