Looks fun. Can't wait

 

Megatron is Co-Captain of the ship so in any other circumstance regarding a hearing I would think that he would be there. But being a JUDGE at a hearing where you were the target doesn't make sense on any planet that isn't run by a tyrant.

 

First thing I noticed. I wonder if that's what Brainstorm was about to ask.

I'm going to assume the LLILAC joke was coming from Brainstorm, not Chromedome and that speech bubble is wrong.

 

I thought the joke was that Chromedome thought it was a clever idea, but nobody on the committee actually came up with it, and Brainstorm tells them to "Forget it," because it was one of his dumb names.

 

There's that, and I also suppose he didn't come because he's turned into a deppressed recluse.

 

Did not expect Chromedome to be on the defense if that's what he is doing there.

 

I think the Joke stop him and if it is from Chromedome it would seem more out of character. Chromedome would have found another way before Brainstorm open his mouth and insult the panel.

Rodimus I doubt will get the joke or understand. Or the power of Flower power of the panel.

It was just easier to put the name up than it is having a vacant spot on the panel.

 

I think Chromedome is his closest friend on the LL. Sure, he may buddy up with Perceptor, but Chromedome actually interacts with him on a more personal level. Brainstorm knows all about Chromedome's history of memory-deleting, so they must go back pretty far and have a fairly close understand of each other.

 

Anyone want to bet that sales will continue to decline?  

 

Well its not like he can leak intel to the decepticons if the faction is officially disbanded. Its not even like he has a real badge though. This painted one on the mouth plate seems like a personal conviction.

The greater problem is brainstorm has the knowledge of a working time machine. Even if you took the briefcase away. He will build more.
I mean the problems he may have caused by his future actions could create a variety of brainstorm influenced timelines, and alternate universes.

Or perhaps a time traveling brainstorm is going to interrupt the trial and pass out super cool weapons for everyone because the DJD are minutes away.

 

Well sure, in the sense that this is the comics industry, and the print sales of all individual comics from every company are constantly declining every month as a standard rule.

 

Which reminds me, if #39, the so called boycotted issue, broke its own Comixology records, I wonder what this one is going to do (I don't think Saga or the Walking Dead are out next week  ).

 

This is sound logic.

 

Wait, did it break records?

 

It was boycotted?

 

Though I'd expect Megatron to at least be in the room as an interested party. We'll see I guess.

Brainstorm finally removed the briefcase chain from his wrist  

It had PBs in rankings in both Comixology US (#11 I think) and UK (#7).

Yes, because of the artist, some fans declared a boycott (though I couldn't tell you how extensive).

 

No. Comic books are declining in print sales. The articles I read were dealing with DC and Marvel not independents. I think there are variety of reasons here 1. IDW is expanding to more titles and if they were losing money they would not add titles. 2. Marvel and DC no longer have monopoly on comic books. 3. It is a digital world.

 

It broke it's OWN records, I believe - it ranked higher on the US Comixology digital sales chart than any previous issue had.

 

What I wanna know is, why is Rewind sitting amongst the "peers"? He should be sitting on the bench. HE was the one who killed Megatron (or the guy who should have been Megatron, that is)

 

But... that guy can actually DRAW. Unlike Ramondelli, whose art SHOULD be boycotted.
