The second long awaited issue of this run for now is here
Bump if you are reading
And yes, this is after Transformers #30 https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/152785345/
And yes, as of now starscream is Dead til his carcass rises up from the scrap heap at the cons base, possibly after whatever happens to megatron next month
>>152858302>"Our missions will stay independent"Unless a big crossover story happens of course
Well Fuck, is happening, as it was foretold.
Letters!
Next Week's Storytime
And That's itSupport your LCS if you likeNext Issue is the Milestone special, and it is going to be a huge one for it is #21 and that is a well known and legendary issue everyone is waiting for.Whatever is happening next, it is going to be a huge homage and maybe status quo change.hope is not scarlett joining cobra
>>152858247>>152858227There is a hoopla here. Normally, his symbol should be scratched.
>>152858512Maybe we are getting G2 Insignia after this, Hound is probably changing his to Joe's or the US Flag
>>152858356Cute freckles!
>>152858562Why would the Decepticons change their insignias too?
>>152858656Unless issue 31 ends with megatron in coma and a split since the entire kirkman volume collection is hinting that optimus and megatron are changed.Someone is taking control of the cons.As for the Joe's, all issues up to 26 are outCrystal Ball is going to mess with everyone's minds
>>152858227Well, at least they keep check on continuity.
>>152858227Honestly, I thought it's gonna go way worse, given Dukes anger issues....unless he will have a crashout on Optimus, when Starscream inevitably returns.
>>152858247They are fucking same guy This is ridiculousIf Optimus had a hologram dude it would be DukeOptimus Prime would have Peter Cullen tho>>152858324Truck mode is bit too genericI hoped for something more like picrelBumper to hood ratio is off,truck would overheat after 2h of driving thru texas
>>152858227Duke meeting RoboDuke.
>>152858984They seem to have been inspired by the Scania's latest models https://www.scania.com/group/en/home/products-and-services/trucks.htmlNot a bad choice seeing that there are truckers rolling those now in the us and they are stupidly comfy to a point PB and Kenwood are reconsidering bringing the old cabs back.The Aerodyne K100 was the most beautiful truck ever.
>>152859113>Kenworthgod dammit autocorrect
>>152858311>Hound stays with the Joes despite the autobots losing half of their manpowerbullshit
>>152858324I feel like Optimus should be a four wheel to shave some height.
>>152859147Yeah, have him only have 1 real axle.
>>152859199Elita took the axle with her along with the kids.
>>152859113Euro trucks havent stood in place for last 50 years so obviously they will be more comfy and efficientSame reasons why harley is gonna either die or remain a shell of itself till last boomer diesAs for prettiest truck while kenworth cabovers are really good looking its gotta be heavy 1950s fiats for me
>>152859113I like the K100s but I am partial to the Freightliner coes, mainly because I have one.
>>152859575What a lovely hunk of junkGet a bumper asap tho,you hit something big and steering gets fuckedNot to mention that it looks chinless
>>152859659It has one now, and a big headache rack like the '07 truck has. I just have been busy and haven't had a chance to work on it.
>>152859760Give him the optimus special and cover the wheels and replace the square with round lights.
Windblade? Pretender cyborg protoform bodies?
>>152858430Still catching up but wouldn't it make sense with Baroness still with the Joes?

>>152860527Because Powerglide's waifu is Doppleganger, and here she is EVIL while Baroness is good.And Doppleganger is pretty much Baroness.
>>152860114Isn't this just a GI Joe or MASK character? Beside, the Transformers side is full on Sunbow, so I dunno if Kirkman and co cares about the toy gimmicks beyond the Combiners.
>>152860733>the Transformers side is full on Sunbow,Did you miss Bulkhead?
>>152860733Kirkman said a million times he is a animated fag
>>152860758Yes, and? Does he cares about the G1's toy gimmicks?
>>152860766>>152860733Isn't Void Rivals basically a Head/Target/Powermasters or Nebulon origin?
>>152860879I mean, they do looks like Sunbow's Nebulon, but so far it doesn't have anything to do with X-masters.
>>152860041That would cost too much money. He'll get repainted into Primes colors eventually. I plan on taking him to conventions around Oklahoma and Texas.
>>152860879I think it's basically a heavily reworked from the ground up version of Micronauts.
>>152858356Can snake eyes show up so he can make her straight again
>>152862317Didn't they push Duke as her one true love for the past few years?
>>152862317he showing up at the annual by the looks of it
>>152862337Wasn't that when snake eyes was dead. In the hama rah story she's fucking him now that he's alive in a fixed clone body that isn't fucked up
>>152858133Covers always lie, Optimus PRIME wasn't in this issue.
>>152860879Fused with the Armada Minicon origin.
>>152858133>PERMANENT DEATH!
>>152862756Not this timeTrailbreaker will be another man
bump
>>152862756>KILL YOU TO DEATH!
>>152862756>>152863956>It's been a trend that characters getting powered up/new forms basically just big backpacks and/or wings>Optimus's new powered-down form needs something to compensate, which also restores his faceplatehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iic7tj4AkrU>Trailbreaker gets reborn as Leobreakerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhFmYqLLXmc
>>152858282I love these guys.
>>152865052Kirkman is a TFA fanboy so he will probably get this
>>152865052jesus why not just make him Pretender Chainclaw while we're fucking his shit up
>>152860879Not really, no. At least they haven't done anything like that yet. The void rivals ayy lmaos are basically organic cybertronians.
You guys think Kirkman knows about the reactions to his run so far?
>>152865390Cybertron Overhaul was originally going to be named Trailbreaker. That's where the "breaker" part of Leobreaker comes from.
>>152860879how shitty would that be?>transformer makes your entire planet>transformer makes your entire planet be in perpetual state of war because??>the suffering keeps Sauron at bay or some shit idk>millions of years go by>discover you're an artificial race>discover the guys you've been at war with so long it's literally your and their religion are actually the same race>discover the race that made your race just bumble around the universe like middle-aged divorced guys pretending they're not stalking their ex-wives, in between bouts of cannibalizing each other as a weapon of war>discover that the race that made THEIR race are just evil assholes who wanted their weapons, cars, chairs etc to be sapient b/c the suffering ???>discover that your entire species was engineered to provide alternative heads, weapons and power supplies to the client race of the assholes who read LotR and built the torment nexus for funsies>go along with it because "destiny" haha lol free will? sure but the suffering is the point
>>152865699Free will was always a illusion
>>152865695why would he want to be a bear robot thing whatever the fuck that is
>>152865784oh fuck off
>>152865814thanks for proving yourself to be a IDW secondary whom never read the G1 and G2 Comics where Primus planned all of that since the beginning
>>152865796>liger>leoanon...
>>152858356>she joined the other team!>Cobra?>Lesbians.
>>152865837Primus planned to have the Transformers defend him from Unicron, who was a planet-eating god, but it didn't work out that way, and it wasn't preordained. The very fact the Decepticons ever existed as a faction is proof that they had free will.If you have free will, you don't have a destiny. Other people's plans are their own, not yours. Fucking child.
Bump
>Black TrackerI can't believe we're still doing this race swapping shit. In b4 he steals his own hubcaps.
Sparkplug is still in the matrix so I'm sure that won't be an issue for Elita.
>>152868401I guarentee it will.
>>152865784>>152865699
>>152868407*guarantee
>>152858356Toxic Yuri Hell yeah
>>152858247>The Matrix choose Elita-1Whoever is editing this book is really earning their keep this issue...
>>152868360>giving a fuck about the race of MASK charactersdoes it ever get exhausting being triggered by these frivolous things?
>>152868716ExactlyAnd Getter literally wanted ARC to happen so Takuma and the gang changes the emperor's fate in the future.Primus works in mysterious ways.Whatever the matrix has planned for Elita, she will learn why Optimus was chosen to be a prime, and why primus blessed Sparkplug as the first human prime.
>>152869732I hope Sparky will show her his memories of war so she can learn that mankind and transformerkind aren't that different
>>152869732>And Getter literally wanted ARC to happen so Takuma and the gang changes the emperor's fate in the future.Wait, the Getter was the good guy all along?
>>152870452Read the manga or watch the anime, it explains why, sadly ishikawa never got to flesh out all of it.
>>152870669I have read the comics till Arc's end. I understood that humanity had to steer Getter Emperor right, but I never felt like the Getter Rays were good or evil.
All it took was this Joe's issue for people to stop whining about issue #30 and learn that the matrix has a plan.And that it isn't the matrix that makes you a leader, but the bot itself.
>>152869510It's not trivia given that it's being done 100% out of spite to fans from Hickman, who is still a butter little cunt over how his woke friends got told to fuck off when they did shit like Nigger Tracker the first time around and how it killed the Energonverse the first time around.Ten gets you twenty Kirkman will be doing gimmicky multiverse bullshit like Shattered Glass/Forever Evil or forcing Hana to do a crossover with Energonverse after Nigger Tracker causes sales to collapse and not even variant covers or blind bag shit can prop up sales
>>152873236you have schizophrenia
>>152873270Ignore him, he is the IDW shill larping as as /pol/fag.
>>152873279you also have schizophrenia
>>152858311So it seems like Prowl wasn't missing.
>>152858197How come dumpster bins are always green? There a reason for that?
>>152876647Probably your local dumpster company. Waste Management is pretty big
>>152858256I want to see Duke's reaction when he sees Optimus hanging out with a bot that looks almost exactly like starscream
>>152877699This art man. It must take special patience to draw so much robot
>>152877742Dan Mora gets shit done.
>>152877699Poor Thundercracker only had the insignia for 2 issues
>>152877959in universe it was less than a evening
>>152877742IDW had more complex mech designs, but now Hasbro knows that pandering to geewunners is more profitable
>>152877742This really isn't particularly complex compared to most mecha art or previous TF art. It looks cool but the most complex thing is the hands. Now EJ Su is provably one of the best technical artists to have done TF. On top of drawing so many intricate details in the joints and , he also redesigned all the vehicle modes into accurate modern updates
>>152877699I hate that the second he gets these new shiny insignias hes trying to earn, like an issue later he and everybody else is scratching them off. Only G2 will make me feel better.
>>152858133Thanks
>>152877699>Red insignia>When DWJ established the insignia was white and the 'cons' black
