Does anyone know if there will be content (letters, articles, etc.) outside of the three selected stories in the magazine?

Finally someone else who sees it. Furman is a great writer but Mick captured each character and that's what I miss about Dreamwave.
The Magazine reprints the 3 comic book G1 continuities? What happens when they run out? Would love to see new material that follows on from the Marvel and Dreamwave books.
