I can't get it to zoom in enough to read the text.

On a side-note, I do hope there's a scene in there where the Dinobots pester Ironhide to tell them war stories.....

Double-clicking's not working for you?

Considering their reaction to Sky Lynx's stories, the IDW Dinobots might not be as too invested in war stories as much as their cartoon counterparts.

No, it doesn't. It only opens it even smaller in another window.

Ah, I see. I wasn't able to read the text; I always did like the idea of the Dinobots being fascinated by war stories, regardless of their intellect level. If what you just posted is any indication, the Dinobots and Sky Lynx scenes are certain to be highly entertaining! Thanks!

I really need to get into these comics...

Someday!

You mean you want Sludge to look like a dinosaur that doesn't even exist? No thanks! As a dinosaur nerd, I'm happy that he's a proper Apatosaurus. Many of the Dinobots looked ridiculous back in G1. They didn't even look like the dinosaurs we know today.

Interesting that the dinobots keeping their earth forms is a point of worry for Prowl, wonder why?

You remind me of Huffer's line from the G1 cartoon, something like, 'I thought we were making dinosaurs not Dinobots!' He thought it was hilarious. Nobody else laughed. Great moment!

One of the Dinobot heads in there did remind me somewhat of DOTM Laserbeak's charming mug. Nevertheless I'm quite accepting of most Dinobot interpretations and these are fine with me too.

I also admire your scientific acumen. As such I could have made a fool of myself quipping sharply that the Dinobots in G1 were perhaps less disguised and more shock troops who generally needed their own island to hide on. Or that ultimately they're no more or less nonexistent/fictional than a dinosaur that has been disproven by science.

I would not go so far as to ridicule the overtly robotic G1 designs though; this alone should waive any burden of Paleontology you might lay on the illustrators, industrial designers and the like who would have conceptualised these toys. I will defer to your seemingly extensive knowledge as to if said nonexistent dinosaur was invalidated when (what would become) the Dinobots were designed. Furthermore that the designers could have known - even if they wanted to be completely accurate - doesn't entirely mean they would or should be, with particular reference to the lack of internet at the time, and that font of human knowledge, wikipedia. I at least, could no more find someone living in a third world country today ridiculous for still thinking Pluto was a planet.

Can some one please explain to me why it is okay to call Slag "Slag" in comics, but not in cartoons or games? I don't get it

Hey, you never know, the Dinobots might like the warstories of an actual warrior like them.

If I were to guess it's because comics are a different medium and aimed at an older crowd.
