    see my post above.

    There is a certain irony, cause you are criticizing prowl (or barber's) logic based on a false premise of your own. Prowl didn't reformat himself, he just grabbed some big fucking guns, put better rockets in his shoulder sponsors, and bolted some extra armor to his chest. Its like any action movie when the heroes find a weapons cache and stick guns and knives all over the place, turn strap a belt of grenades over their shoulder.

    Does anyone remember that scene in "I'm gonna git you sucka"? Lol....


    Arcee snuck into their base when they weren't there, and boobytrapped the shit out of the place. Soundwave and shockwave were IMO too arrogant and self assured to think anyone knew where they were and to try and one man them like that. As I said above, Arcee is one of the most powerful warriors in this continuity, don't get thrown.off by the pink.

    And yet Prowl's basic body has been redesigned from the ground up. True, it may be along the same lines, but note the bull-bars, chunkier legs etc. He hasn't just strapped on some guns, he's reformatted.

    I'm not knocking anyone who likes it, but for me it just lacks cohesion, and Prowl is a big part of that. If they're turning Prowl into Rambo with a brain, so be it, but I get a feeling that they're turning Prowl into Zeta Prime mkII.

    Prowl is a dick. He always annoys me. Also I don't like how Bumblebee and Sideswipe act. Overall it seems that all the dicks stayed on Cybertron, while the cool people are on the Lost Light.

    His judgment:
    Guilty.

    Feed him to the sharkticons.

    Nah, they've merely been captured and spirited away by Prowl. Everyone think's that they're dead, though.

    Roberts did say that he wanted Prowl but Barber needed him instead. Yet he was able to use Prowl, albeit in a flashback, and he is suspected with bringing Overlord on board. So he is in RiD physically while being in MTMTE spiritually, in a sense.

    So maybe, full-armored Prowl is just the tip of the iceberg. He has plans running left and right. It just doesn't make sense for him to turn himself into a martyr at this point.

    On another note, I wonder what Optimus would do if he found out about what Prowl was up to.

    I like Prowl a lot. He is doing some shady things, but I still don't see him as a true villain yet. I see his story being a classic "do the ends justify the means" at this time.

    No. They were outright stated to be alive. They're being held prisoner in something called the Black Room.

    If he played that angle, he could jump pretty high on my list of fav's.

    Prowl should never get his come-uppance for whatever he's done so far. He's just far too great of a character to read.

    constructions had to die,simple as that. Mind control chips are not cool when your are trying to rebuild a planet and culture that has just gone through4 million years of war.

    Why are people so butthurt about the constructions?

    I'm not a fan of this Prowl. I hate how they've made him a villain.

    i need to reread RID TPB #1, but from what i remember the constructicons and bombshell both deserved it... ratbat too. these decepticons dont seem to have given up the war, so neither has prowl...

    this is what i dont get, i havent read the comics after the first tpb, but i havent seen him as a villian yet. what is it that makes him a villain? is it the killing of those decepticons i mentioned above?
