Part 2 of The Allspark's interview with the great Simon Furman is now online! Furman shares more of his ideas on reviving the original Marvel Comics Transformers series. If you support the notion of a revival be sure to sign the online petition!

Here are some highlights from the interview:

- The reason Optimus is oblivious to the "big army of pissed off Decepticons massing" is because he's so shaken by his own death.
- The carnage on Earth "makes All Hail Megatron look like the teddy bears’ picnic"
- Return of Bludgeon, Galvatron, Megatron, Soundwave, Prowl, Grimlock
- Characters killed by the end of #80 are still dead
- Subplots: Grimlock goes off the rails trying to cure his Action Master condition. What happened to Scorponok's original head? What is the fate of Spike/Fort Max? What happened to the likes of Circuit Breaker and GB Blackrock?
- Sticking to US continuity, BUT wants to bring Ultra Magnus into it and possibly the Wreckers
- Simon envisions the characters close to their original 1980's G1 forms, but with Cybertronian alt modes

Props to forum member Might Gaine for the summary.

Stop on by the Allspark to read the whole interview, and do not forget to sign the petition if you have not done so already!
