Comicon Clips of Transformers Animated and Spectacular Spider-Man

Saturday, Jul. 28 2007 | Author: Spengs

The San Diego Comicon has been pretty good, so far. Entertainment News International has promotional clips for both Transformers Animated and The Spectacular Spider-Man. Both look exceptionally good, to me.

Transformers Animated has me hyped the most. The animation for the show is being done by Mook Studios, better known for their work on Swat Kats and Eureka Seven. As you can see in the clip, the animation is extremely fluid and pleasing. The promotional image posted above has a few new faces on it, namely the Decepticons. From left to right you can see: Starscream, Blackarachnia, Blitzwing (with an awesome Colonal Klink motif going), Lugnutz and Megatron. For those not in the know, the Autobots featured from left to right are: Ratchet, Prowl, Optimus Prime, Bulkhead and Bumblebee.

Spectacular Spider-Man looks mighty fine, too. The show’s head writer is Greg Weisman, better known as the creator of Disney’s Gargoyles, one of the most outstanding animated programs ever conceived, so I have high hopes for this series. And as you can tell by the clip, there will be villains-a-plenty in this show.

I’d say that right now is a very good time to be a Transformers and Spider-Man fan.

Ok. I take it back.

That Transformers stuff looks AWESOME. I’m going to update the old article I wrote about the preview image (which I still think looks like crap, by the way)

I admit, Sari looks like she stepped straight outta Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force Go and I wasn’t expecting her to look *that* stylized, but with an actress as good as Tara Strong providing her voice, my hopes that she won’t be too annoying remain high.
The fact that old skool-looking Arcee and the Dinobots popped up is especially exciting (the crowd in the video thought so, too). It’s been so long since I actually felt excited about a Transformers cartoon, January just can’t get here fast enough.

This looks fantastic. Both shows look very interesting, from what I saw on Comic Con 07! I’m so exited! I like new Transformers Animated poster it shows much if the show! I agree, Sari looks much more anime-like then rest of cartoon, and also I found it funny, how Starscream has big chin and devilish smile! He’s suppose to look charming! But I tell you: ‘No body with that big chin and that smile can be a good guy!’ In case of Spectacular Spider-Man, I think it’s going to be just AWESOME! New Doc Ock Tentacles look quite nice and stealthy! And also seem to be in similar style like Transformers Animated.
