Over on the PlayStation Comics website, there are codes to download two different comics: Americans get the first issue of Transformers: All Hail Megatron; Europeans get the first issue of Aleister Arcane.

Each one eats up about 40Mb of space, in case that’s the sort of thing you take into consideration.

Poor Tai Kaliso. He was easily a favorite of ours and we hated the way things went down for him in Gears of War 2.

To make up for it though, DC Comics and Wildstorm provide a backstory to the “proud warrior with a gentle heart” in the upcoming Gears of War No.7.

This special issue was illustrated by Simon Bisley and written by Joshua Ortega and Henry Flint.

It goes on sale May 20, and Kotaku has a nice preview of it posted on the site.
