Furman has also said that one member of that long list, Ultra Magnus, is a character he would have liked to spend more time with in his previous run. In light of this, CBR asked the writer what his take on the character looks like and what role he would play in the tales coming up. "With a lot of people losing their heads (or regaining them in some cases), Magnus is the calm eye of the storm, holding things together," Furman said. "He's somewhere between the UK comic Magnus and his IDW incarnation. A warrior at heart, but struggling to show more by example than might. He's going to be 'tested,' especially when he and Galvatron bump heads, that's all I'll say for now."

interview with Simon Furman, writer of Transformers: Regeneration One
I thought I couldn't be
any more excited about the return of the Marvel US/UK continuity. Seems I've just been taught a short, sharp lesson that I cannot, will not, stop being thrilled by this. Ultra Magnus versus Galvatron, round two... the six-year-old in me is fit to burst with excitement.
