    Interesting. So Soundwave recovered Ravage's parts after he was killed by Bumblebee, rebuilt him and resurrected him.

    That is soooo unexpected. The first news of Ravage's resurrection seemed like a joke (I mean he was deader than dead after Bumblebee had ripped his spine and skull, or not?), sorry Mr. Storyteller - this is just lame. If Jazz could not make, why kitty. Seems like you are too keen on some characters that you're trying to push into your stories really hard. So hard it hurts (some) readers.

    I do feel offended by this. Yeah, just like predicted, Lennox and the army guys wanted to see Cairo and try the local cuisine sooo badly that they left Ravage's remains behind. We'll clean up tomorrow, why bother today. Just who would want those metal scraps, right?

    They were already writing this story before they found out Ravage gets killed in the movie. I believe I read that when they found out (by sitting down to watch the movie in the theater like the rest of us), they were quite surprised and had to think of a way to get Ravage active again rather than toss the story out.

    Decepticons have better medical facilities?

    Autobots didn't bring a whole ship's hospital section with them on their small mission to Earth?
    Infiltration-type robots are just plain harder to kill?

    Re-ignition of a spark is not a principle that Autobots beleive in?

    Really, there's pretty much a billion possible answers.

    So. This story is written by Simon Furman and Alex Milne does the art.

    I understand the countless of possibilities. But ravage in that scene was destroyed, ripped apart from the inside out. That definitely look worst than Jazz being split in two. At the end of the day it's storytelling...

    But if you look at the scene, Bumblebee ran his hand along Ravage's tail and basically pulled his spine out. The rest of his parts were still in tact. They were stripped off his body, but still in tact. I don't think it'll be that hard for Soundwave to construct a new endoskeleton and then reattach the parts.

    He's alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XD YES!!! He was one of my favs in the movie.

    Jazz lost his spark, I think Ravage's spark was apart of Soundwave no?

    And Frenzy got his head ripped off and still kept on ticking.

    And Skorponok took a ridiculous amount of punishment and ran off, only to return for ten seconds in ROTF.

    I'm pretty sure the rules for companion Transformers are much more flexible than those for regular Transformers.

    actually scroponk didnt have that much damage done to him he just had his half of his tail blown off while the other end of the tail which was on the plain with lennox was still little alive, but yes as much i hated jazz in the first my only guess with the bigger bots if you cut them in half at the waist section they die to but the legs not likely which explains bumblebbee still lives at the end of the first movie.

    cant wait to see how this issue ends looks more like small prequel to the third one if you ask me

    Cool to see that Ravage is back...I'm interested to see where the rest of the story goes.
    This'll be the only "Tales of the Fallen" comic I actually get. :p

    It does look intriguing, but I won't be investing in it, unless it appears on PSN and I'm feeling especially curious...

    Ravage lives! and he went after the kitchen bots.... interesting no shard in them but all spark energy definitely but what will Soundwave do with them perhaps convert them into the rest of his arsenal of minions
