#22 | | Certainly NSFW! Join Date: Jan 2006 Posts: 863 Location: Aurora, ON News Credits: 1 | I'm interested... Cliffjumper was always such a one dimensional character, it would be nice to see him fleshed out a little. Been a while since I picked up any single issues, I might just break for this one.
That, and it is my birthday then so might as well splurge.  |

Take a shot for every pouch Liefield draws on a character. Great now you have alcohol poisoning.

#29 | | zombiecon Join Date: May 2006 Posts: 5,622 Location: Robot Narnia, Quebec Collection Count: they have their own room... | This looks alright... one of those stories where you know almost immediately what kind of story it's going to be, but if the details are handled well, I'm sold.
I like the first 5-pages because they're dialog-driven. The way that TFs would have to interact with other species has always fascinated me, so the way he responds to the questions can yield some interesting answers to how McCarthy is addressing some of those persistent canonical questions... such as the language issue. The "it's magic" answer was cute, but even better was his initial response... "I'm not."
On some level I think I'd be more interested in reading this story simply as a sci-fi piece about contact between TFs and another race, without any contrived and predictable tragedies, Decepticon interlopers, romantic entanglements and meditations on the way war destroys everything it touches. That's been done to death.

The white coloring makes him look not so hot-headed.
I'll be picking up all 3 covers for sure. Prime: "We're Reissues Megatron" Megatron: "Nonsense" Ironhide: "It's True, They're Remold & Repaint Us All The time" Megatron: "Slag" *sigh* "Kill Me Now"
