Autobus Prime's Blurry Robot Theater

No wonder Megabolt's so surprised... he doesn't believe in Santa!

And Sideswipe, you behave yourself!

S:

Huh-huh. </runabout>

UO: And you want one. With a the optional stereo and cupholder.

But then, who wouldn't want to drive around in a Transtector? And if anybody giggles at the bracelets, you just go all Ginrai on 'em. And hope you don't end up with Cancer's pink armor.

And Descent...cool game. I tried it once. I couldn't drive that thing to save my life.

T_C: Guilty as charged. Of weirdness and wiseaftness.

No, I like the power-ups too. I think they're fun.

I could write Thundercracker into a romantic-comedy subplot, including a 3-episode montage to especially sappy music. That would probably put a dent in the shields, but I'm not sure who the lady would be. The Baroness? No, that might end up being actually amusing, and ruin the whole scheme.

I guess the Keg o' Justice is safe.

Hoo boy...you're replacing Insaniac with a Shinki, aren't you?

But it's good to know you haven't given up. Your comic is lots of fun. Will look forward to the return!

sc: Glad you liked it!

He doesn't? Awwwww. You'd better put him on the Polar Express, pronto.

Well, he'd hardly be Sideswipe if he did, y'know?

You do that and I'll hate you for it
I'll have the VEF hunt you down or something

To be all honest, I don't think there's a Shinki insane enough to replace Insaniac
He's just... one of a kind XD

T_C: That would be the perfect excuse for a Pinky vs. Krekka Bionicle Battle Royale, except that Pinky is deceased, so I guess I had better behave...

There's a lot of conceptual madness, but Insaniac's got 'em beat for the psychological kind...


Now, since our staff remains unmassacred by Truckou Shinki, we can continue the crossover arc, now with 100% more script than ever before! Now that I've started, I really recommend using a script. It makes figuring-things-out so much easier and more efficient.

This one is basically a recap & introduction for those who came late, covering the crossover up until now, with a few new things added. Later today, when I finish chapter 7's PDF, I'll link it here.



B.R.T. Chapter 8, Number 1: "The Travellers' Tale."












What is all of time?
Just a small winter story,
To tell by the fire.

Next time: 8.2 - Multiple Meanings


Now for some comments. The photo-map is based on KoiLungfish's Cybertron globe, projected on to a flat plane by my, um, patented "Halfast Projection".
KL really did a cool thing, which you can check out here:

Koiverse Map of Cybertron

A few of the names are (really cool) Koiverse fanon. These haven't really come up in the comic.

Various images in panel 1 are taken from Trans-Shinki World (and Friends), photoshopped a bit to match what I pictured when I read it.

Clicking each image will take you to the beginning of the relevant chapter. Clicking the first one will take you to TSW (&F), and drop you right at the start of the battle royale, so you can enjoy the mass mayhem and horrified reader-commentary...and of course, if anybody wants to harass SD for an update while they're in the neighborhood, that is entirely their decision.

Clicking the last panel will take you here. Right here.

Now, the map...

Our eyeglow department has added borders to the satellite image. Isn't that nice of them? Orange outlines show areas currently administered by Autobots, purple show Decepticon areas, and green is a catchall for "other".

Places we've seen, in no particular order, include:

Kalis - where Cruellock got over-energized in chapter 1.

Stanix - aka Acid Wastes, home of Micronia and Fort Scyk, where Cruellock got lost in chapter 2. Setting of most of chapter 1, chapters 5-7, and the place where we're going to start chapter 8.

Altihex - location of Blurry Robot Productions, setting of chapter 3.

Neutral Territories north of Stanix - setting of chapter 4. Gen One Power is twenty destruction radii southwest of the Altihex buffer zone.

Cybertropolis - Formerly Iacon, and under the Maximal Alliance. We haven't seen it, but it's probably got lots of trees. Wheeljack's injured friends were airlifted to Cybertropolis for repairs.

Uraya – was in one panel, in a July 4th special. Grimlock’s Lightning Strike
Coalition runs it. It’s probably a really fun place.

Credit goes to TCracker for the Alternity numbering system, which should be pretty simple to figure out for those of us on this side of the fourth wall.

This sure is makin' things easier for new readers (and of course, old ones too for bein' reminded of what's been goin' on)

I like the new style
So nice and tidy, easier to understand and read

You're really outdoing yourself with every update and every idea you come up with
My offer still stands regarding you working for me so I can dominate the world

Nice setup and linking to the appropriate chapters for more info, so you can't say it's a halfast setup.
