This is my first story time so forgive me
I wish they'd stick with one artist
Is anyone even reading this?
And that's it! Tune in two weeks from now where maybe something might happen!
Thanks user!
Just some art left but that's it
No problem!
Is that spaceship the Go-Bot Pathfinder? I see a couple design similarities
Rounded, bulky forearms; visor; looks female?
And that's it. For real this time
Wow, such a riveting tale. /s
Possibly, I think she could be a Broadside remold.
I like her.
Hard to say but a new shipfu is a welcomed one
Wonder what her name is though
Ghostbusters is out as well, could be storytimed here too.
This whole run so far has been extremely boring
They had a chance to dig into some interesting mythos by choosing to have it take place before the war. But instead they chose this whole political route
Give me a minute and I can get that started
Is this series new-reader friendly?
Why does Megs have such luscious lips?
Honestly? Yes. But at the same time no
It's a reboot so obviously that makes it an easy jump-in for new readers.
But at the same time this run is extremely boring so far, which might turn off new readers
Honestly? Yeah, completely reader friendly, but it does a lot of world building.
Alright. Transformers Ghostbusters #3 is a go
I just realized the words in the previous page form the Autobot logo
I am
I have no idea what's happening, but I am
Political drama. A murder mystery
I am reading this! Although I'm confused if this is before the War or after.
This takes place waaay before the war
Is that fucking heretech?
It's been so overwhelmingly boring so far, I'd hesitate to call it any-kind-of-reader-friendly.
It's a cure to insomnia, that's for sure!
So we've got the Stunticons and the Rhino from Mask in the first panel. Nice.
They should have embraced a "this is patrick" joke.
Nah, that's not Rhino, that's the Venom truck, Outlaw I think it was called.
Oh shit. Uh, that's it! Hope you enjoyed!
Shockwave is here to save the run.
>A Transformers run that's boring?
>That's.... illogical
Isn't the Outlaw a Cab-over style truck? The trailer is certainly Outlaw though, even if it's not a oil tank.
Flatline!
That's what I said!
Dammit, I already listed all the references in the other thread...
Nooooo! Not a skitter!
That's nice, dear.
The Easter Eggs are one of the best parts of the GB comics.
>Sentinel prime is back to really hating the senate as lone as they dont turnnhim into trump again im down
Speaking of, the whole senate scene this month...wonder if its similar to current events on purpose...
Probably. Lord knows these hacks can't go one issue without inserting whatever flavor-or-the-month drama is at the moment.
At this rate it will be flavor of the week.
Thanks for storytiming
Thank you for reading!
Why put a picture of seaspray's girlfriend in the Slimer tank?
Thank God, best boy's still alive.
He better not die during this run. I'm still bitter about last time
Looks like I missed an issue... is Sixshot confirmed dead this early?
He's not dead. He got stabbed by Windblade but escaped. The explosion was the facility exploding to cover their tracks
No, no he's alive.
I was pissed about that too.
>inb4 Sunstreaker dies instead because "fuck it, why not?"
Oh, shit, son. He shouldn't have pissed off Prowl. Table-flipping incoming.
Only Soundwave can piss of Prowl and tell the tale
Absolute madbot.
Iliked it
It's nice.
Thanks user.
Are they going to edgify Nautica?
Good to know they didn't make Elita like the previous continuity....*shudders*
hound has seen some shit

Anyone got better likes for issues 10 and 11?
we still don't have a Siege/WFC Sunstreaker yet
Hasbro didn't re-trademark Sunstreaker in 2018, so his future toy wise is vague at least for Hasbro / USA retail
Interesting. I wonder why.
Sunstreaker isn't as popular as Sideswipe, Sunstreaker has only ever appeared in the G1 cartoon and only G1 related/based comics and stuff.
You'd be like that too if you had to bunk with Starscream AND Sentinel Prime
Yes, but he even got a recent Combiner Wars toy.
Sentinel Smash
a cheap retool.
That's likely how we'll get him in WFC.
I'd rather he be a new original mold this time.
An extensive retool would be fine.
well either way hoping we get one to go with the new Sideswipe.
They are brothers, can't have one without the other.
explain Armada, Animated, the Cybertron games, RID2015 and the Bayverse films.
I meant G1 Sideswipe in the toyline, I realize Sunstreaker was missing in Devastation.
I don't like Orion as a senator. He works better from humble beginnings not as the representative of the largest faction on Cybertron.
I don't like it either, to be honest.
Why does Road Rage look like a dude?
Because she is literally a repaint of Tracks?
>Because she is literally a repaint of Tracks?
That's the 1st e-hobby version with a faceplate. The MP is a feminine remold with a cute face.
Yes, that struck me as odd first. There IS a rumor going on that the will release Red Tracks but not Road Rage. Perhaps they did that on purpose.
It's a new universe, so yes.
I talked to Alex Milne at TFCon last month about Road Rage and he said that her design is based on the MP and was not sure if there was a new Siege Tracks mold coming.
Yep, the one from the cover art looked like her MP. Nice to get some confirmation.
i'm excited for the next issue, having Milne finally do a comic for the reboot is gonna be a treat.
Milne sure nailed drawing generics.
Oh good, finally an issue I can pass on.
Fembot Titan figure fucking when?
Or is it pre-op Jetfire?
I'd love a cutie like that.
It even worse here because he's not even named Orion in the reboot
Finally, an issue with good art
it still blows my mind how much thought Milne does put into background characters, like a lot of the one shots from MTMTE, couple of cool designs for one time.
I hate it
I hate it because you see a fucking killer generic design, and then you think, "man, what's that guy's story? What does he turn into? Why can't there be a toy?"
Example: Look at Radar here. He looks fucking cool. And he will never be more than a single panel wonder. And it tears me up inside.
The comics are full of guys like this. Cool designs that are essentially gone to waste
true
though at the same time, it's less lazy than all these literal generics with nothing special or memorable protesting in the background in the reboot unless they're meant to be important/named.
Less lazy, yes, but less annoying (for me anyway)
If a character's only purpose to be a background filler, I'm fine with them all being Starscream or Bumblebee repaints, because I don't expect crowd fillers to catch my attention.
When a crowdfiller DOES catch your attention...well, then they stop being a crowdfiller, if you follow me. They're not supposed to draw the reader's eye.
It's weird. I love it from the "good art" point of view, but I'd rather they not if they aren't gonna do anything cool with the neat designs they come up with
If I liked the early RID run, will I like this? Everyone says it's boring politics but I always liked that angle.
Ok. You are gonna love this.
yeah its kind of not that far off, except it's pre-war than post-war.
I guess I'm a brainlet, but I don't really get what's driving the conflict in this series? Like, what's dividing the planet here? Is Megatron just a power hungry politician?
Council is keeping the planet at peace by limiting the resources and keeping everything closely monitored. Everything is limited. Megatron wants to take action an conquer.
TRANSFORMERS: THE BASICS on TARGETMASTERS
TRANSFOMERS #11 RETAILER INCENTIVE COVER BY GUIDO GUIDI
that's a neat cover
Bump
You just have to pray and hope a third party thinks the same as you do and makes a toy of them with their own alt modes. They've done it before, it just takes awhile. It's still better than waiting on Hasbro to do nothing or do something horrible.
Third parties have gotten very good lately.
Is Froid a good guy now?
I don't think so. He's probably partly responsible for what happened.
Well he’s currently less unabashedly evil than the old continuity
...Okay, I thought this ended? Is this a reboot? why is Megatron a Senator now?
It's a full reboot. Megatron is a politician here. Actually, most are politicians, scientists, cops or something related.
Neet. Is it solid. This issue seemed cool.
It takes a lot to set up their world. So it's not bad, just quite a slow burn. Last issue was pretty nice, though.
TRANSFORMERS/POWER RANGERS CROSSOVER COULD HAPPEN, ACCORDING TO HASBRO OFFICIAL
Comicbook.com recently asked, an official at Hasbro, John Warden for his take on the possibility of a crossover involving the two popular franchises. Warden is the Senior Design Manager for the Transformers franchise and, revealed in this recent interview that, he believes a crossover could happen. In fact, just bringing up the idea of one spawned countless ideas in his head.
"Oh yeah. Oh yeah, my gears are already starting to turn," Warden said. Not only that, but he also teased that now would be the time for it to happen. "For all those 90s kids out there I think it’s there moment now to make this happen. You know…yeah, that would be cool."
Thanks
It's just a matter of time.
Ok dope, so this is our stealth thread for the week. Who is your favorite fembot and why? Also taking doodle requests
Strongarm, I just think she is very well designed, and I really like police trucks,

Why not?
God, I would have loved to see Senator Megatron beat some rando's ass.
Neat
Why is there no porn of the female holomatter avatar
WHO YOU GONNA CALL?
youtube.com
Most fan artists are female and they like their robots male.
Source: trust me on this.
Thanks for the reads.
Honestly? At least most Transformers should get two things more often. Human forms to blend among people (either through an auxiliary body or holo avatar), and faceplates that activate to signify that slag hit the fan and it's safeties off.
That would make their designation as robots in disguise even more fitting.
Yeah. And the chances of going native even larger since they'd enjoy stuff without breaking them in their original bodies.
But also they would have a problem if the natives would fall in love with them. Imagine Starscream going STUPID SEXY tier.
I mean, that already happens even while they are in their regular forms.
Then if that already happened, then it would be even more probable with their secondary bodies.
True but still
>Human forms to blend among people
Wouldn't always work.
Agreed, but would be fun.
Maybe.
Imagine Flamewar having a robotic human body and how she'd look like. With that hoppy attitude? Wow.
biker girl?
Soundwave giving zero fucks when Prowl asks him to do something minor is already tickling me.
Strika. Big.
Where do I start reading Transformers? I used to love watching Beast Wars and my favorite character was Dinobot. Thanks for answering my question and reading my blog post.
IDW from the start, or you can start with More than Meets the Eye and RiD.

Damn beautiful.
How I’d imagine if a MTMTE anime exist would sound like
Hiroshi Kamiya - Rodimus
Tomokazu Sugita - Ultra Magnus (emulating the late and great Unsho Ishizuka)
Akira Ishida - Drift
Toshio Furukawa - Ratchet
Tokuyoshi Kawashima - Rung
Tomokazu Seki - Skids
Kappei Yamaguchi - Swerve
Wataru Takagi - Whirl
Kenta Miyake - Cyclonus
Daiki Yamashita - Rewind
Junichi Suwabe - Chromedome
Mamoru Miyano - Brainstorm
Masami Kikuchi - Red Alert
Yuki Kaji - Bumblebee
Shinichiro Miki - Prowl
Jurota Kosugi - Ironhide
Keiji Fujiwara - Wheeljack
Miyuki Sawashiro - Arcee
Junichi Kanemaru - Blurr
Sounds solid.
>Reflector
>in Marvel
Madness!
wait, what...holy fuck
Come to think of it, maybe this shows his death, explaining his absence.
she's perfect
RIP Reflector, you just were never given a chance.
>kiss
With some crazy thrown in.
Well obviously, she wouldn't be Flamewar otherwise.
Would also throw in some eccentricity in too. But a little.
Also good thing she's present in the newest IDW Transformers and more active at that. Though no happy-go-lucky behavior present. More like hot-headed, but that's also OK.
I hope she makes it out okay, she's currently in a tight spot. And I wish she gets a new toy.
Thanks user. It's nice to have at least one entertaining comic to read.
Thanks

Huzzah!
If he was good at his job, Rubble might still be alive
So how did Alpha Trion grow a beard
I’d probably also consider Mitsuo Iwata for Blurr
>MTMTE cover looks fun and happy (When we know it's the exact opposite)
It was in the beginning
Did ddroll do this art?
They like write these comics months in advance most of the time
Sure were happier times.
I want to bully Slipstream.
IDW Elita is way too glossed over.
Pls Hasbro make toy.
Old or New
I haven’t seen the video yet
I just love Elita. She looks so good.
based
IDW likes to make Optimus Prime a dick, huh?
Old, old IDW Elita is way too glossed over.
I wish they didn't. Why do that?
>remember to pet your human after a work well done
Neat, we need more ships and boats.
Why is this art so shit? What the fuck happened to the good artists? Where the fuck is Milne and whoever was doing Optimus Prime, they were fantastic, these new artists are fucking dog shit.
Zama is doing Death's Head for Marvel (it's crap), Milne will be back, just you wait.
These books are boring as shit already, good art might make them tolerable, but lacking even that is making it an absolute chore to get through.
So true. The regular artist is so boring too.
I kinda preferred her color scheme in TFA
She was a cutie back then.
And she's so hot now. And probably still a cutie.
If they don’t want her to be Pink, then please make yellow her default deco
Wanting to start the new series off with a clean slate
Unfortunately that backfired badly with the art
Worse writing than Roberts and Scott doesn't help either.
Though desu, I prefer the reboot right now over last year of IDW
We need a fleshed out Ocean planet
Scott is decent enough.
Scott is good when she's good but she's TERRIBLE when she's bad.
That's like, the default setting for TF writers tho
Did anyone else actually like the Unicron mini? Or was it just me.
It was ok, nothing to write home about. There was some real stupid shit at times, like Slide bitching about why they should help and being a complete cunt about it, while Trypticon takes a laser blast to the chest.
It all felt like, "Oh. Ok, then."
I did.
Milne was the only thing keeping MTMTE afloat. The early issues did have a good vibe to them but once it turned into Megatron the Comic even Milne couldn't save it.
There's a reason they gave him the final issue of everything.
i did
Nah
Seems like femLugnut will be Lugnut after all.
S'alright for what it was.
Source?
The Latin American Spanish voice has been casted already and no mention of her not being Lugnut was made. So I guess it's like 70% confirmedz
Is this gonna be another Thrust/Red Wing thing
I'd rather Scott at this point
Hell, I'd rather the artist for Windblade over this tripe
It's yet to be seen. But I'm good with femLugnut, she seems cute.
If anything Scott is way better than Barber and a hell of a lot more consistent than Roberts despite Windblade likely being a self-insert.
The worst thing the last year of IDW did was character-assassinate Optimus Prime, and the reboot has his character assassinated from his very first appearance. I'm not sure this is an improvement.
Never read the comics. What did they do to him?
Nothing. He's just not a 100% know it all supreme god jesus and father figure and that triggers Yea Forums
I wonder if when the G1 craze finishes, we'll finally get something Beast Wars. At least Cheetor is appearing in the new season of Cyberverse.
What I'd like to see most is a post-Great War/post-Energy Crisis Cybertron with how the relationships are between reformatted Autobots and Decepticons along with the Maximals and Predacons.
Really want to see if the Predacons are truly second class citizens or do they pull everyone's legs with that.
The G1 craze has been going for over 15 years. It’s never going to end.
Dammit. Just dammit.
You know what they say:
Alex Milne can't draw attractive robots.
That wasn't Milne.
>Alex Milne can't draw robots.
FTFY
>Makes a few minor mistakes, but does more to fix it than anyone else at the same time
>The entire cast starts shitting on him and doubting his credibility of ever actually being a Prime
>Readers wait for the part where the absurdly overblown sense of mistrust is addressed and set aside
>It never comes
>The writers start pretending it was valid criticism when most of it is based off shit that Optimus not only didn't cause, but actively fixed while the ones bitching about him presently were making the problem worse
>Comic ends with "GEE WAS THE GUY WHO SAVED LITERALLY THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE A GOOD OR BAD LEADER? IT'S SO AMBIGUOUS, I GUESS WE'LL HAVE TO MAKE OUR OWN DECISIONS :^)"
Same, that's the exact setting I want to use in my version of the autistic headcanon dream-comic every fan has.
Wrong
exactly this, Optimus was unfairly shat on time and time again
Based Milne.
I wanna see a pic of TFA Blackarachnia with her stomach open as a big, spidery, The Thing-like mouth, since that's what forms it.
Tom Scioli would be all over that idea.

They had a good run
You did not need 10 issues to get this far.
This is the kind of story that decompressed issues just fuck up. A slightly more packed storyboard layout could have done this whole affair in 5.
To be fair, he was an archivist at one point. It's only now, on the brink of war that he's in a position of authority.
>he's not even named Orion in the reboot
What? Yes he is. As of now there's only one Prime, Sentinel Prime. He's the current leader of the Autobots and the guy on Cybertron with the most political influence.
Honestly yeah and I like the reboot but so much of it could’ve been decompressed.
What's the rush? We all know where the story is ultimately headed, it's showing the leadup to the war that makes this reboot unique in the first place. And it's not like we've had to wait a year for all this to happen, the book ships twice monthly.
I'm not in a rush to get to the full blown fighting since that's literally what all of Transformers is and we've seen it a million times. I'm enjoying the world building and political intrigue.
I heard it's becoming monthly soon.
Giv robot gf
Yeah that’s why
It’s gonna feel more underwhelming if it’s a monthly read
>get a load of these retards
Haha wouldnt it be funny if she sucked peepee Haha
Hilarious.

maybe! or he's using him as a pillow as he sleeps in his alt mode, either situation is cute
agreed, pretty cute.
jfc, who let the third world /trash/tards out of their pen. Stop turning dead storytimes into your shitty circlejerk
It'll probably read a lot better in trade
>pirating comics
how problematic of you
He doesn't really come off as a very good speaker, but this doesn't seem especially dickish to me. I can see how it can be interpreted as such. He appears dismissive of Megatron's concerns. Still to me he's merely pointing out the political realities that Nominus has majority support. Megatron represents a vocal minority, and should the entire government bend over backwards to accommodate their radical views for how society should change just because they love rallies, marches, and some are prone to more disruptive and even violent outbursts?
Op is trying to infuse some reality: more of the actual people support Nominus than Megatron. He's also doing a horrible job of getting that point across. IDW Op never came off as a particularly effective statesman and often not even as a leader, especially during late arcs of the last run. Even he began to admit things like unilaterally declaring Earth part of Cybertron's empire was a bad idea.
Of course we know it's all pretty moot. It doesn't matter what Op says, this is a foregone conclusion. At the same time Megatron is easier to dismiss because we already have big implications last ish that he is not being serious about fixing anything. He's already put his own plans in place and they won't be pretty. But this is to the surprise of no one. We all know how this ends. A shame, really. I like seeing pre-war Cybertronian civilization but knowing how this all ends actually isn't all that fun. I suppose there are ways to make it worthwhile, but all of this feels so dull so far. They toss out a lot of fairly generic scifi stuff and none of it comes off as genuinely interesting.
Forget the last issue, this one just gives up any pretense at all.
must buy...comics...about...transforming robots who may or may not be gay
>this one just gives up any pretense at all.
What do you mean?
When’s Swerve popping up in the reboot, frick i wanna see him as a bartender pre-war

kickstarter.com
Midnight on a steamy street. Two cars redline down the highway, swerving and jockeying for a lead. In a flash of steel and a ratcheting metallic whine, the trailing car bisects, shifting and twisting into a bulky humanoid form. A towering robot blots out the hot summer moon and aims at the speeding hot rod ahead of it, firing bolts of neon-hot plasma at… nothing. The mechanical giant inspects the empty crater before being ambushed from above by another gleaming titan. Blades flash and lasers blast before the peal of distant sirens alerts the androids to oncoming humans… and the complications they bring. There’s another ratcheting metallic grind, and again fog fills the air, lit only by the blazing taillights of the disappearing vehicles.
This is their world, transformed.
This is the world of the COMMANDROIDS.

Second, they didn't bother to revisit the timeline and 'fix' Beast Machines.

Beast Wars should return.
Have you watched II and Neo yet?
Halfway through two, it's fun in a retro sort of way.
Generations selects Novastar (IDW)?
Beast Machines was called that in Japan
Damn, that was fucking trash. I read #1 of the new run when it came out and lost my interest then, only saw this thread by chance.
Coincidentally, I've been rereading Armada from DreamWave and it's every bit as great as I remember it. It's very straightforward, it's better than the show in every way EXCEPT the status quo stories end too soon for me, I wanted more minicon tug of war battles before the start of the end of this run. Also all the art is fantastic and the robots have proper bulk unlike this new TF run's art which while aesthetic and clean, makes the robots too thin imo.
Call me a zoom or whatever but I don't read TF just for robo politics, there needs to be action in TF. Not everything needs tension and high stakes and action but TF definitely does, as well as drama and politics as a backdrop for it. I do not read/watch this stuff to see Fattimus Prime sitting down all day and everyone walking around and flapping their mouthtraps about boohoo and waahhhh, the most action that went on in that issue was the scene with that electric net thing. I'm all for putting a new spin on things but this is pathetic.
And hey, for all I know I just happened to have read the only 2 bad issues in the run so far. Feel free to call me out for jumping to conclusions as I'm only commenting on what I saw so far. In its defense, I literally just finished rereading Armada up to the 5th to last issue before going on Yea Forums for a bit, almost no other TF comic I've seen holds a candle to the DW ones so it's like comparing Superman to a couple of Calendar Mans.
Hope it's actually good, I would defs want this.
SRW as fuck
Glad I'm not the only one who has a problem with that. Severe lack of respect going on there.
>fighting since that's literally what all of Transformers is and we've seen it a million times
And it works every time because fighting to TF is like air to humans. Strip the metal in this run and it's just boring politics between boring characters who you know have the potential to not be boring.
Why does all Starscream x Windblade fan art make SS look like a chad and WB look like some subservient mopey lesser?
Most SSxWB fanart is done by women with WB sometimes acting as their self-insert.
Annoying, but I guess beggars can't be choosers.
That ending...It focused more on Arcee?! What the hell?
I honestly don't mind another character getting spotlight in cases where it's built up well, I just don't want to see them shitting on Optimus.
Yeah, but that whole retcon about being Galvatron's sibling is so absurd I just can't take seriously how she's all nonchalant about everything in the ending.
Damn Chromia has nice thighs
No
What
IDW Arcee was a mistake
perhaps
>IDW was a mistake
ftfy
IDW was about 45% readable and 30% legitimately good. Better than most comics that go on that long.
So when are they getting a new author?
When the current one gets original ideas that don't involve modern western politics.
That kinda mirrors Transformers thru all eras.
Prior eras turned hot-button topics into excuses for a Transformers story. This one is using Transformers stories as an excuse to lecture readers on hot-button topics. There's a key difference.
Well, so far it's not as jarring as later era IDW but the worst offending part so far is how decompressed it is.
Whirl's so cute.
cringe
she's so perfect
I don't if it was meant to be funny but Soundwave's "No." dragged a chuckle out of me.
Things are finally getting fun.
That spaceship looks oddly attactive. Wonder if we'll know more about her.
>Furman was a mistake
fixed that for ya
The first IDW part was pretty decent.
>Same, that's the exact setting I want to use in my version of the autistic headcanon dream-comic every fan has.
Actually that part with Predacons being 2nd class citizens...this idea was around when people were expanding on Beast Wars. I myself would like to see more of this and the state of the Beast Era Cybertron...minus what Beast Machines presented because fuck Beast Machines.
Well, we know more about the plot to Transforners 84 now.
Remember the UK story 'Man of Iron'?
Yes, what with that?
Seems part or all of 84 is explaining who that was. Namely Fastland and Cloudraker.
Er, FastLANE.
Best Go-Bot femmes
I think it's because in an earlier issue Megatron pays a visit to some OC figurehead to make sure she won't be a problem with his plans for her devoted followers (whom it turns out she could give less of a shit about) and now he's straight up talking openly about his plans. Personally I think it's for the best because it isn't like him suddenly revealing he was going to turn the Rise and Ascenticons into his future Decepticons was ever going to be a shock, right?
In all fairness, with how long it took I thought things were going to be a bit different, even though the end result is pretty much the same.
Preview of Transformers 84
I am surprised they didn't play with us a bit. I mean there was no reason to make things exactly the same as it's been over and over and over (and over and over) again. Make it seem like Megatron and Optimus might find another option and THEN play it straight. Not sure how that might go over, though.
And of course there's all kinds of plot devices they could have used to suggest things might go different. The most tired and cliche of which is time travel. The old someone travels to the past to set things right bit, makes us think the civil war can be avoided but still fails. At least we have some different factions here. Especially with Alita telling Bumblebee things don't feel right it seems like there's good odds that the Ascenticons won't all roll into a new Decepticon faction. And of course the Rise in the hands of Shockwave, well, there's some wildcard potential here. And we STILL haven't gotten to Starscream schemes yet.
I was afraid we would get an Elita similar to the one from the previous comic (she pretty much acted like the actual Strika while their Strika was basically an extra) but from what it's shown so far she'll probably grow into the familiar G1 character.
Right, all those factions and bots unnacounted for could make this interesting once they come into play, like what happened with Sixshot.
user, you can't fuck a spaceship

THEN YOU AREN'T TRYING HARD ENOUGH!
Words to live by.
They had the same VA, dyemooch made the print cause she did TFCON one year
Pathfinder certainly sounded better. I like Crasher, but yes, she's got one harsh-sounding voice.
Alright, I'm up to issue 7 and even though it's kind of similar to old RID, it's not hooking me quite the same. Doesn't help that they have 2-3 artists per issue, either. Wish they'd just give the series over to Griffith. His pages are the best. And they keep talking about Seibertron as this beautiful planet but all the city shots or background shots render the landscape in the same color. Background shots especially are bland as hell.
+Megatron/Orion dynamic is done alright
+The Ascenticons logo is a pretty cool Decepticon variant
+Really interested in what's going on with Cyclonus and his ghost buddies
-Rubble died way too early
-Early on when the Ascenticons got attacked it felt incredibly rushed and the art didn't fit the gravity of the situation
-Bumblebee's G1 cartoon design feels sort of out of place
*Cybertron
Guess I just outed myself. Just came from there.
No prob. It's what the planet is called too, so you are correct.
>Beast Machines
Was that the Japan-only one?
No, thats Beast Wars 2. And Beast Wars Neo.
No, the direct and disliked sequel to Beast Wars that killed off the franchise in the West. Hence why we have these days G1 craze.
