...

So what was Leader-1 seeing God all about?

Ironic revenge is the best!

For years gobots have been accused of being knockoff transformers. Based Sciolimade them the ancestors of transformers.

Reading issue 2 now, thank you for the storytime.

How accurate is this to the show? I was more of a Transformers guy, and I know it's the good guys vs the Renegades, but I thought they were cyborgs with biological stuff? Were there humans in the show?

In any case, this is some good stuff, I feel bad for overlooking Go-Bots. Leader-1 seems like a good dude.

Not, really, it's a radical departure. Everything is reimagined.

>Based Sciolimade them the ancestors of transformers.
>The only way to try and make Gobots be seen as anything but a knockoff of Transformers is to try and steal Diaclone and Machine Robos' status as exactly that

>How accurate is this to the show?
Very not. I mean the characters are more or less themselves and the human characters are from the show too, but it takes the basic premise and does its own thing completely.

What's it like having two daddies starscream?

It's honestly more of an homage to Planet of the Apes.

The first issue could be considered "Rise", the second "Conquest" and so on.
And it's a very good homage.

To Leader-1's fate being kinda similar to the original plans for original series Ceasar's fate.

Reminds me of the GI Joe/Transformers comic. Is it the same team? The art style is similar, and the sort of reinterpretation/twists reminds me of it as well.
Midway through issue 4 now. This series makes me uncomfortable, bc of uncanny valley and the dystopian violence. A pretty kino series. Did Scooter talk like Wheelie in the show? Wasn't there a female Renegade, Crasher/Clasher? What's the name of the good guys' base? The one that opens up? Seems like it'd be a fun toy.

Not that familiar with the Apes series, I wasn't expecting him to go down this route though.

Yeah, Scioli did the art for that and I think co-wrote it.
This is him solo.

And yeah, this series, while not perfect, is just really unnervingly sobering and somber at times. It really is kinda unforgettable now.

You should definitely check out the original Planet of the Apes stuff. It's kinda fun how Scioli plays with those ideas, and I have to feel like it was another in-joke like a lot of his stories.

Possibly a closed time loop as Eno is apparently the ghost of Leader-One

Cybertron is one of the Gobotrons seed throughout the multiverse
Road Ranger creates Optimus
Bug Bite creates Bumblebee
Cy-kill/Leader-1 are rebuilt into Starscream

Not accurate at all (cartoon Go-bots are alien cyborgs) still very good

And then there's Go-Bot God Courageous to think about.

I can't help but feel bad for both Leader-1 and Cy-Kill
Awww
Who's this new leader?
>those last panels
What
What the fuuuuuuck
>still very good
Indeed.
This series was very kino, I'll look into the films as well. The only one I remember is a relatively new one (2000s?) from when I was a kid, and at the end they escape but they landed in another planet of apes? And apparently the original one has the statue of liberty and it's earth What about the new ones, is that a reboot? I've vaguely heard of Caesar...

>made me rename all my files
>chases me to the Go-Bots general
Grrr

I love Scioli

>Female go-bot
>We ride you

Awww yus

There's the original series which is
Planet of the Apes to Battle for the Planet of the Apes.

Then there's the remake by Tim Burton which was your first spoiler.

Then there's a Remake-Trilogy, except it really only remakes Conquest and Battle for the Planet of the Apes but in the modern day past.
It's....not very good outside of Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, which is a perfect Apes movie.

>Who's this new leader?
Road Ranger. He was teased back in

I wish I picked up this series. The way this comic was made is so interesting. Is there a trade for it?

Only just finished today.
Trade is set to be out end of June.

I'm pretty drunk and thought this was about minibotsfor a bit

Thanks for the info.

While I'm here, here's a Tom interview, about his career as well as this series.

youtube.com/watch?v=OQkPX9tzats

>5 gosh-darn movies
I guess maybe I'll start the first or the second one on a date or something. It's hard to manage the willpower to sit down and watch an entire movie.
>inb4 that's just depression
Road Ranger is so cool! He reminds me of Optimus Prime but also has the ruthlessness/decisiveness of Scioli's Leader-1.
Please remember to stay hydrated!

Both because if you know what Starscream's like, then you know how it's going to go.

Yeah.

Well, at least Leader-1's soul is in heaven with Nick. I mean...that's what I choose to believe.

why is all the dialogue so flat and matter of fact? is it an intentional stylistic choice?

Mmhmm: he was the same way in his Transformers/GI Joe. It's odd to read, but for me at least it makes me think of a little kid playing with their toys.

>Both because if you know what Starscream's like, then you know how it's going to go.
I can't tell if the coloration is a specific reference to the G1 toy or not, which would then sort of be a reference to Find Your Fate Junior and/or toy-accurate early UK G1

Yes

Because golden and silver age comics were written like that, and Sciolis books are made with those in mind. It's part of their appeal.

It was added to the list of old jokes that's urged not to be used again.

>shoots him through both eyes

That's more badass than anything I expected when I started reading this.

SHIT!

The art looks so... grubby and kitchsy.

I feel like there's an element of Greek tragedy to this.

Like if Leader-1 had been better he would have been able to follow the Go-Bot God to the enlightenment he promised. And actually used the armor with the other Go-Bots to create the God.
And that Eno represents the inevitable twist of fate of his failure.

They aren't trying very hard to make them look like the show.

Are you fucking kidding me?

I love this comic. It didn't take itself at all seriously, yet at the same time it managed to treat the characters with respect. It's by turns both hilarious and kinda poignant.

Fuck!

That's clearly the point.

Actually a really solid summary of the comic.

Someone???

This is the Go-bots storytime thread, sir, not the begging thread.

I suppose nothing can top TF vs GIJ, but this was a fun ride. Kind of a downer ending, though.

I like to think of it as bittersweet, although definitely more bitter.

The world is destined to be doomed by the Go-Bot revolution, and Leader-1 devolved into a despot and later recombined into Starscream...

But human beings and Go-Bots learn to live side-by-side, Leader-1's soul passes onto to a presumably happy afterlife, and the Go-Bots survive into the future as a race with their own will.

Jesus, for 5 issues Scioli packed in a lot of pathos.

A big chunk of tf vs gi joe's charm was taking a crap ton of both franchises history and screwing with it and then some.
While gobots has that, it's a much shallower pool to dip into and the story is much more serious.

this page is absolutely perfect

Depends on how time travel works in this universe, I suppose. Still, I kinda preferred issues 1 and 2, before it became a Planet of the Apes homage, so in a way I'm glad.

The first two issues are pretty heavy homages to Conquest and Rise, but I get what you mean.
I feel like there could have been more shown of the inbetween.

Yeah, definitely. It could make for a stable series, really. Guardians vs Renegades fighting over man's fate. Like Transformers, but more grounded and with humanity having a much bigger stake.

Most artistic page in the entire lot. Crammed as much panels as possible and thanks to the isometric layout, it doesn't feel cramped.

Scioli manages to balance camp with legitimate emotion.

This exactly.

And in all that madness, it's still kept super vague on WHAT the whole organic dealie with Gobots is, beyond Cy-Kill's face moment.

My guess is vat-grown "wetware" that get mechanical parts attached to it as it grows and develops.

Why would Tonka do that?

It's cheaper and more efficient to use a natural brain as the base for an AI rather than try and make one out of metal and chips.

The simple answer is even more complex (artificial brain)than the difficult one (full AI). I swear this sounds like a Futurama joke.

I took it as an oblique reference to R.U.R., sorta the forebear to robot revolution fiction - with the robots in that being fully physiological beings, made out of some sort of unidentified material IIRC

There's a lot of deliberate homages in this.

Ending of Dark Knight Returns


I know there's others that I've missed.

Drill Robo's looking very Revenge of Cronos-styled here. Wish we'd gotten a Rom Stoll cameo.

Scioli adaptation of Robotix when?

Gimmie Inhumanoids.

I want to see Scioli work his magic on Thundercats.

>Scioli thundercats makes Yea Forums think roar isn't so bad.

I don't think Scioli can do wrong.

>Scioli will never make an 80's toyline shared universe

He's almost there tying in Transformers, GI Joe, and Go-Bots. And also MLP. Just give him the keys to franchises outside Hasbro.

Hey wait, did that Super Powers comic of his have any tie-ins to his other work?

Never since hasbro doesn't own robotix anymore.

They can't do shit with inhumanoids or battle beasts either.

Huh?

>Never since hasbro doesn't own robotix anymore.
they only sold the molds to the toys, they still own it as an IP, including the cartoon

Inhumanoids apparently has some copyright issues with Marvel, while with Battle Beasts they let their trademarks for it expire, so they would have to come up with a new name for it, though they have used the Battle Beasts in TF media before(they showed up in one of the older GI Joe/Transformers crossovers and also had a reference to them pop up in the Allspark Almanac)

Transformers are Go-Bots.

>Scioli's next project will be announced at SDCC
what do you think it'll be? It's probably something big considering he's already working on it and yet they want to wait for the con to announce it.
Maybe someone smarter than me could try to read Ed Piskor's lips on the Kayfabe video they talk about it.

Probably another Hasbro IP. Who knows? Masks, Rom, Micronauts, sky's the limit.

Wow this was pretty good and I’ve had no knowledge of gobits at all

How deep does the rabbit hole go?

The Go-Bots wiki has been kinda thorough on their archiving and annotating of this series.

gbwiki.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Go-Bots_issue_1

If you REALLY wanted to reach, the Go-Bot that forms the center of Daiakuron looks a little bit like Courageous in places.

And yet they still haven't added the X-Men reference to issue 2.

I thought Daiakuron saying he is known by many names was hinting that he is Primus.

Go-lems.....actually kind of a great name. Keeps the connection with Go-bots too.

*meant to say God Courageous

Transformers #2 storytime:

Kek. It fucking sucks.

This reads like a fanfic. Trying way too hard to be edgy.

EDGYYYYY...

You have such a low tolerance for edge. Don't be a bitch.

Spay-C is a female character.

And now all of a sudden Leader-1 is bloodthirsty?

Lazy, inconsistent writing.

Leader-1 redeco sighted.

RETARD

An alien world.

So naturally they have breathable air, speak english and have food humans can eat

Just thought of something maybe Eno is Starscreams Ghost

Rocks aren't organic.

It's Earth you moron

Looks like Scooter turned into this comic's target audience.

>But who becomes Megatron?

Megatron was just one random miner, who had enough of being fucked by the system.

You talk like a fag and your shit's all retarded

So URSUS was retarded as fuck too?

Crasher had the thing for Leader-1, not Turbo.

It's like they didn't watch the cartoon at all.

This series was the stupidest thing I ever read.

Ask Kon-El

You must live a pretty charmed life if this was the stupidest thing you've read. I envy you.

So Scioli couldn't be bothered to write something original.

That's funny: I feel that way about your posts.

I guess some people really WILL take anything they're given without question.

I wish ALL jokes could be purged from TFWIKI.

You could, but that would spark a genuine argument about creativity and humor and parody and considering you're a wraith with no pulse or education on the subject it's a discussion nobody would enjoy.

So maybe you shouldn't guess that.

Sometimes I wish we could enable IDs on Yea Forums, I get the feeling an awful lot of the last few dozen posts were made by the same person. You don't deserve any (You)s, but you are a faggot.

When does the collection come out? Will it have special features (concept/commentary/interviews)? Or should I just get the singles right now?

>he makes Wilykit/Lion-O canon and endgame

How hard would Yea Forums splooge?

I like the coloring. Most IDW used ugly washed out colors that were abrasive to look at, and people would go "Nooooo it's evoking old comics", but THIS actually FEELS like a comic time lost from 1985.

You have no soul.

God, never I hope.

TF vs Joe and Go-Bots say otherwise.

And you have no brain

Yeah, it says you're a brainlet who can't explain why they're bad without resorting to buzzwords

At least I don't take what's given to me without question, like a REAL bitch would.

There's no need to force in out-of-place, gratuitous death simply for it's own sake in a children's property unless you've got a pretty edgy streak in you.

>children’s property
Anybody who remembers Go-bots is likely at least in their 30s. This comic is not aimed at children at all.

Well they didn't make a point of that untill later. You're the one giving this crappy series a free pass.

If more people questioned things, we wouldn't have second rate tripe like this badly written, horribly drawn dreck.

I'm quite heterosexual and I'm the only one here that's actually looking at things logically, not taking it without question. You're the retard.

>when the Transfag finds out there's a Go-bots thread and starts flinging shit like a monkey
basef

Well, mouth breathers like you are taking it without question.

So a correction then. I don't guess that. I know it for an absolute fact. You're proving it.

And you have no standards. But then you're generally regarded as a retard, so you're opinion is worth less than nothing.

Souls are for weak minded fools that believe in religion.

Brainlet isn't even a real world

Nice redditspacing fellow comic book buff
*tips fedora*

Obviously, notice how he can't argue anything without having to attack other people

Thanks, OP.

>I'm quite heterosexual
Sure you are, kiddo.

Don't start a fandom fight, user. I'm big into Transformers and I've been taking the piss out of the "totally heterosexual" elitist prick all night.

I enjoyed the storytime but now it's pissing me off and here's why. Most of you will probably agree with me, despite initially not thinking what I thought! Because I am a genious!!!!

The series was short but sweet, and having binged it, it will take a while until you forgot enough to want to re-read it again - but it will never be like your first time.
Thank you again OP for the storytime, I love you.

On an unrelated note, how did avid Go-Bot lovers find the series? I didn't know that much about Go-Bots myself.

Attached: Galvatron Henkei.jpg (591x503, 99K)

It's a WIKI. Add it yourself.

Honestly, I don't know any big name/established gobots fan/creators to have a gauge on how great the series was.

I think most Go-bot fans are either Transformer fans that sip into it occasionally, or hardcore Machine Robo collectors

Is mugenbine now a separate line from machine robo or is it still part of it? Saw new mugenbine stuff a month or so ago but I don't think I saw the machine robo brand anywhere in the packaging.

nigga, NO ONE under 30 is reading this, or even REMEMBERS Go-Bots

NO ONE

At best you'll get someone who grew up with machine robo rescue but even that's a stretch.

How fucking young are you that you couldnt see this coming from a mile away you fucking bitch.

>mugenbine
Ostensibly is still Machine Robo.

bump

>IDW could have made a Tom Scioli shared universe
Giant missed opportunity.

I actually like Go-Bots a lot. I'm an old school Trafsformers fan who didn't know of its existence until relatively recently, but watching it I feel like it's actually better written than G1. The human characters in particular are more developed and well integrated into the story, and the stories themselves are pretty good and I'd argue more engaging and less "toyetic" than Transformers.

Where Go-Bots falls down is in design and VA work - It looks and sounds dated even for the time it was made, if someone had shown it to me blind and asked me when I thought it was made, I would have said at least a decade earlier than it actually was. G1 looks pretty slick by comparison, neither the design of the toys or the Go-bots cartoon characters was very good.

How about the big 2 takes a flyer on him and gives him a World's Finest OGN?

So sad...
Wow-ee, neat to hear. I'll maybe give Go-Bots a chance sometime. It does have a rustic charm to it, but when I was getting into TFs I thought "I already have Transformers, it's gonna feel boring watching a similar show"
>proceeds to watch the Japanese continuity with similar formats and character archetypes

bump

bumpx2

If you need to bump a thread twice in a row then it's time for that thread to die.

Yes, how dare this thread take up valuable board space that could be used for an all-repost cheesecake or Yea Forums shipping thread.

>Storytime thread that storytimes an entire miniseries
>Not worth bumping
If you say so.

I'm under 30

imagine getting this butthurt over the fucking go-bots

You get more nerd cred collecting GPS transformers than mint gobots.
That and fanwork tend to get told as 'losers revising history'

Hasbro doesn't own that anymore

I think they kinda do, they just have to use different names.

Bump for luck.

Why wasn't the Soviet chick included in this?

She was the hottest. Weird seeing a soviet in an heroic role.

Attached: all the codes all of them.jpg (329x505, 35K)

Linka was the only other heroic Soviet in cartoons right?

There were some in G.I. Joe and that's it. The Cold War still existed at the time.

>Alvin and the Chipmunks tore down the Berlin Wall
Those were some crazy times.

Yes they were. I kinda miss those ladies with thick Russian accents, though.

Which version? It only seems to click for the modern version. Can't see it working for the 80s version.

I guess the modern one, judging from the art.

Wilykit being endgame will never stop being tragically funny.

Agreed. Such is the way things are. The irony.
