Probably because you can't make kissy faces as easily with a full motorcycle helmet strapped to your noggin. I suspect she's more based on her Animated counterpart that looked like this:
To be fair, if it was Bay, Charlie would have been seventeen and in a bikini instead. Also Skids would transform into a hot mess voiced by Bumper Robinson.
Can't wait for the MLK jr special issue. In all fairness though, this is super cute, even if romance does not need to exist in transformers.
I know but still Greenlight wasn’t as popular as Arcee and chromia till Years later with Elita moonracer and firestar in Idw but was cut short
#17 mentioned that there were riots going on but I'm surprised bots are already leaving the planet in #18 Milne and Perez already made Galaxies #5-6 an instabuy, but if the story's as good as the synopsis then it's a bonus I've never heard of Glyph and Tap Out until now, hopefully it's a good first impression. Also does this mean I can assume they're OCs and complain about forced romance in a Valentine's day special being published outside the main ongoing? /s
3P0 and R2 are a package set, that doesn't mean they should be copulating. It makes no sense. God, this needs to die a death. The incel Cybertronian sexuality obsessed TFWIKI contributor that fixated on that one out of context panel has people constantly quoting it as some sort of damning evidence. Here's a test for you: accomplish "proving" the Charlene/Skids ship with ANY OTHER PANEL FROM THE COMICS AT THE TIME. Go ahead, I'll wait. As far as the Valentine's Day Special: romance between Cybertronians is stupid. It was stupid in Sunbow, we fortunately dodged that bullet in the Marvel books discounting this one out of context panel, and it has been stupid in every iteration since. And yes, Tap-Out from the new Cliffjumper, but make Glyph from the Classics Bumblebee mold, please.
They were pretty heavily implied as having something going on back in their original fiction from what I remembered, and their bios in Animated leaned into that heavily

Romance ain't all about having kids, y'know? A social species forms bonds with other members of its species. Some of those bonds are deeper than others.
Damn son, that is the rich funk of hypocrisy! Tfs been fuckn since day dot get over it already. If Vision has been gettn some without your moral crusade getting in the way, surely you can let your other action figures? Valentines issue looks cute! If it means a glyph and/or tap-out fig down the line i am doubly here for it.
Check the canoodling on that cover, that's far more than bonding. Part of the overhumanization that was a major complaint about Roberts' run, and more than a little ironic that those same Roberts worshippers rush to the defense.
