Jim Sorenson, the writer of the Transformers Animated Allspark Almanac, has put up a five page preview of this essential companion book to the show on his blog, Disciples of Boltax. These five pages give a nice flavour of the breadth of material covered in the book - character profiles (with multiple head sketches showing different expressions) and episode summaries, both written in an in-universe style by the characters of the show themselves. Also shown is one of the interstitial pages which covers the early sketches of how the transformations were designed on the show.

Check out all the preview images by clicking on the link above. Transformers Animated: The Allspark Almanac goes on sale tomorrow, August 19th, and is truly a must have for all fans of the series. And if you live near Burbank, be sure to stop by the Emerald Knights Comic Book Shop this Saturday, the 22nd between 2 and 3pm to meet Jim, Bill Forster and Derrick Wyatt and ask them to sign your copy of the book.
