Some of what people are saying over at Hisstank concerning IDW's Transformers comics though does come off as a bit harsh. I think IDW could handle Joe just as well as I feel they're handling Transformers.
But if they make another Crossover deal with Marvel comics and have like Cobra teaming up with Hydra and the new Avengers Initiative or whatever team join forces with Joe to put a stop to the team up I hope they'll get better artists involved. Provided of course they even considered another Crossover with Marvel Comics.

WTF is a Toca, I know what a Taco is but . . . .
If a Joe/TF line is ever done (c'mon Hasbro it would sell well) anybody else picture the Stunticons as being the Dreadnok's vehicles or is it just me.

I'm not saying I'd never do them just that I'm uninterested in doing them right now. | http://idwpublishing.com/phpBB2/view...3faf7c3001bb10  |
