EP 24: TALKIN' 'BOUT OUR RE-GENERATION
We chart the sometimes rocky and certainly twisty road to Regeneration One, IDW's continuation of the original (Marvel) TRANSFORMERS series.As far back as 2009, discussions with IDW editorial were underway that would reunite us - and inker Stephen Baskerville - as the creative team on Marvel's founding/grounding TRANSFORMERS comic, picking up from issue #80 of that series, But getting it off the ground would take three years, helped along by comics new site Newsarama and a fan petition (not to mention G.I. Joe mainstay Larry Hama)!For News, Extra content and access to the podcast as a VIDEO CAST, check out WILDFUR•NET

EP22: ON THE CIRCUIT
We talk comic (and TRANSFORMERS) conventions, and how they've changed - for us and for the attendees - from the mid-80s to now. Plus, we kick-off our mutual Matt Hatter recollections.Back in the day, conventions were more about promoting whatever work we were doing at the same, while these days - while that remains true - they're also a revenue stream for us freelance writers and artists. Good thing? Bad thing? If you're expecting us to reach any hard and fast conclusions, you really haven't been paying attention thus far. And we turn back the clock to 2011 (ish) for part 1 of... The 'Matt Hatter Chronicles' era!If you want an extra 12 minutes of this podcast and extras every two weeks take a trip to WILDFUR.NET and become a Prime member. You won't regret it :-)A&S

EP21 - TRUNCATION
The full-steam ahead nature of the IDW TRANSFORMERS -ations series gets derailed somewhat, and we reflect on the need for plan Bs.Timetable-wise, it's 2008 (ish), and as All Hail Megatron rears its head, the progress of Infiltration, Escalation, Devastation (and so on) hits the buffers. A lot of radical condensing is required as multiple storylines are tied up ahead of this not-so-soft reboot. Meanwhile, in the Wildman sidings, Draw The World Together comes... together... and other seeds are sown, as the need for having alternate journey plans on the rail network of life and career comes to the fore.EXTRAS: A link to the TF MOSAIC book - https://simonfurman.wordpress.com/2008/02/15/mosaic-a-go-go/For more information and added content take trip to WILDFUR.NET
THE REST IS GIANT ROBOTS - A PODCAST THAT'S MORE THAN MEETS THE EAR.Writer Simon Furman and artist Andrew Wildman go back to the beginning... Charting a 40-year stint in comics, TV animation, games and more, including - of course - a healthy discourse on the rise and fall and rise again of TRANSFORMERS, also now 40 years old. In a series of roughly chronological, informal chats, Furman and Wildman relive the ups and downs and highs of lows of the creative life, spotlighting key moments in their respective, and joint, careers - many of which, naturally, involve giant, transforming robots. Nothing is off-limits, as Furman and Wildman delve deep into their (unreliable) memories, presenting a humorous but warts and all story of life inside the comics biz that is still...
