It was rushed -- He mentioned it when I interviewed him a couple of months ago (see
www.gijoeuk.com for the full interview in the blog). It was originally going to be a 4-issue series and then Hasbro came to them and said they weren't allowed to do anything in 2007 that didn't have the movie version of the TFs in. So rather than scrap the comic, it was quickly changed to 2, larger-sized issues and Wildman had to get them done to see print by the end of 2006.
It's a shame, as it was quite special to see him drawing Joes AND Transformers again.
