    I figured that was the massive com screen that Rodimus mentioned in the prose story that he wanted to install on the LL.

    I'm not gonna lie... I mean, don't get me wrong, it was a fantastic issue, but...

    I think I would have enjoyed it a LOT more if Roche/Milne was on art duty. I really like James Raiz, but here, his art just seemed completely soulless, overly-gritty, and at times just flat-out awkward.

    Agreed. I really enjoyed the issue, but felt as if it was messing that little extra something.

    The art was completely off. Raiz is better suited for something grim n gritty like X-Force or Youngblood.

    My thoughts exactly. This issue is crippled by the artwork, IMO. It could've been the best issue yet if it was drawn by Roche, Milne, or even Matt Frank. This was a silly issue emphasizing humor, and those guys know how to reflect that in the characters. Raiz's art just doesn't work here, though I am looking forward to it in Dark Cybertron.

    Still, though, I loved the issue. Also, the "Dark Cyclops" that Paddox mentioned has to be Shockwave.

    Definitely Whirl. Word of what he did must have spread fast and he's seen as some kind of demon :lol

    Really? Maybe I'm misunderstanding the context, but it seems odd that the Terradore successor would go to the guy who assassinated their previous leader for help...

    Makes more sense going to someone who they have no reason to know who he is.

    Besides, the context made it sound like they were desperate.

    Wow....Looks like James up the ante from world building to species building.

    Well judging on how much they frequintly travel the gallaxy it's kinda past due anyway.

    So yeah, bring on the Universe building amoung other things.

    Agreed. I mean, it makes sense why there's not mechanical races everywhere, being that they're poo-pooed apon by the galactic buttcracks. But obviously there was at least another.

    I love how they butted heads, but then sat down to drink together, only for them to turn out to be bad guys anyhow. :lol

    Err....only read the 7 page preview. I've got an Ipad and Ipod Touch but I'm trying to wait till Wednesday. Either way I guess that would explain the front page of #24.

    Does Thunderclash stick around? Because it'd be cool to see another one of the European guys stick around.

    But he leaves alive and healthy (well, I mean...) so he could show up again.
