>That was awesome. Idk what people have thought of this run, but I am loving it way more than DWJ's.
I haven't kept up in a while and I'm not a big transformers guy, but what do people get out of issues like this with like standard/well-paced but bland art and just a standard story where a villain has to give up their pride for a bigger/older villain to gain power? Was there like some writing I missed on first glance? I get that it is a setup issue but a lot of comics are just endless set up. Just seemed a bit like a wasted issue desu, when it could have been half an issue with something else going on.
>>
>>153136981
This was a continuation of a prior issue from DWJ's run, plus a plot thread that Kirkman has been weaving. It was very important in the grand narrative.

This has been mostly hot fucking ass compared to DWJ's and reeks of Kirkmanisms, but this issue specifically wasn't half bad. I'd even say I liked the trials more here than originally, but that also might be because there's some resolution to them here.

I feel like Kirkman takes too long to get to the good stuff. But I am happy that things are starting to roll.

G2 Megatron has a purple recolor known as Hero Megatron

Trannis showing up is such an insane deep cut choice but i love it.

also cool to see The Fallen in the AOTP design as well. see this is the good kind of toy synergy.

Straxus being a predecessor of Megatron is cool as well.

like i've been saying since the last issue leaked, things are about to get insanely interesting.
>>
This one issue has just proved to me that the entire last arc would've benefitted a whole lot from cutting off at least half of the screentime the Earth 'cons got, this is a substantially better re-introduction to them than "MuH pErMaNeNt DeAtH"

>>153137684
It's the only relevant thing the decepticons do in the entirety of the last arc and it only happens precisely so you don't feel like they're completely irrelevant to the story at that point, but it's irrelevant all the same, the decepticons should've just taken a backseat after issue 26 and, I dunno, have Elita breaking Soundwave out by accident instead cause she's a fucking retard.

The third one is the first ancient Decepticon from the G1 cartoon in the 1980s.
Also he’s the first Decepticon commander in early 1980s Marvel comics continuity.
He’s called Trannis.

Opposite for me, loved DWJ's run and this seems much worse. It felt like a filler issue, honestly. Didn't we already get the "gazillions of trials by death" thing in issue... 17, was it? Why repeat it and without even a good payoff at the end? Nothing's been happening here and the good Autobot/Decepticon action or even character interplay is entirely missing. And the art went two notches down in quality.

I wouldnt be suprised If he got some red accents and a new body

I think that Skywarp will want to follow his Glorious leader and get an upgrade too
Untill megs leaves his cocoon I nominate skywarp for leadership
It will piss off starscream and thats what megatron would want

it is setting up rodimus getting the matrix in cybertron because the cons are going back to cybertron and leaving optimus on earth

So Megatron inherited the Matrix of Oppression from Straxus?
>>

Then who would Prime’s Autobots fight on earth?

Galvatron is the obvious choice but G2 Megatron would be fun as hell.

>>153136871
Yeah, it was awesome. I thought DWJ's Megatron backstory issue SUCKED. Megatron just gets back, and then we get an issue of him getting bitched by Quints and nothing explained. This issue gave Megatron a much cooler portrayal and set up a number of intriguing points for the future of the run to tackle.
>>153136941
Stay dead.
>>153139004
This issue was so much better than DWJ's that I can only conclude you are an inauthentic contrarian.
>>
>>153141732
There's been evil matrix's in the past, but this matrix if oppression is new.
>>
>>153141732
There’s been a few “evil counterparts” to the Matrix of Leadership with different names across different continuities.
But this is the first “Matrix of Oppression” and the first time Megatron is a matrix holder.
>>
>>153141732
It's new. The only notable evil matrix in the past was Shokaract's Matrix of Conquest.
>>
>>153141732
Its a Skybound addition like Shredhead, Arcee Magnus and Elita Prime.
Still suck that Arcee is not called Arcana Magnus.
>>
>>153141781
Arcee is going to be Arcana Prime in the future

The art by Ludo is so much better than the regular artist that it's not even funny. Dammit I wish we had him for the rest of the upcoming issues.

Nope. For some fucking reason it needed to tie into the larger aligned community despite it having no connections.

We're switching to Jason Howard's art for the next few issues now that Mora is out, for further reference he also did the two Starscream flashback issues during DWJ's run, I'd say his stuff is on a nice enough level to carry the next 5 issues or so
>>
>>153141811
How was I supposed to know until I got to that page dumbass?
>>153142251
Yeah, he yields. But the portrayal is different. The trial pages show him FIGHTING, not just being torn apart by Quintessons again and again. When he yields, he smiles and utters every word as its own sentence. If you have any level of reading comprehension, you can see Megatron isn't broken, just biding his time.

lol calm down sperg
>>
>>153136871
I actually hope its something new and not Galvatron. It's very clearly dark energon
>>
So wait, Trannis and Straxus were Decepticons before Megatron? I assume Megatron was the first Decepticon leader to actually get the faction going, or at least enough to start the great war? I'm not sure how this fits in the timeline, because I thought the whole point was Decepticons/Autobots being created the minute the free will dispute started?
>>
>>153137684
People didn't like that? I thought that was metal.
>>
So basically Unicron created a pyramid scheme with himself on top? Megatronus senior manager recruiting more bozos for their dark god?
>>
>>153143192
do you not understand that Unicron both knew Megatron/Galvatron was trying to betray him, and had absolute power over him? did you not understand a film for children

>>153137684
>>153137726
>>153137761

I wouldn't even write it off as permanent even. Cybertronians can take a beating, and with Vector Sigma and how energon works, any one of these guys could get their sparks restored

I know they'll probably base Rodimus' form on the Kingdom one, but imagine if the trailer detached and the cab look like this.

Kinda surprised they’re using the age of the primes/dreamwave design for megatronus when back in issue 22 they used the aligned continuity designs for the other primes.
>>
>>153136871
I hope it’s not Galvatron just yet, but I do like the weird crystal cocoon transformation they’re doing, haven’t seen something like that before, kinda reminds me of budding from the generation 2 comics, weird body stuff the transformers can do

>>153137684
because Megatron looking over at speaking to the audience to say this time it's real trust me is retarded, it's doubly retarded to do some big shock value death after just bringing back a bunch of characters DJW had killed
>>
>>153144991
>>153145028
It was done because DWJ was a trigger happy edgelord and killed off way too many characters. This allowed Kirkman to bring characters back while also establishing an actual rule for how they die. It was smart and needed.
>>
>>153144870
Not a mode, his pet.

>>153145053

What even is Skybound's history now, I thought it implied the Decepticons started with Megatron...
>>
>>153145131
This dude is acting like just because something is true in one continuity then its true in all of them.
>>
>>153136825
Forget about Straxxus, That's fucking Trannis here!
>>
>>153145053
>killed off way too many characters
Based on what? Transformers has a shitload of characters, and it's an exceedingly easy property for which to introduce new ones. The sense of desperation wouldn't be as prominent in the early issues if all the violence had been played for slapstick.
>>
I understand there's precedent for it but I'm not that fond of the Decepticons having their own patron saint and lineage. I'm willing to see where it goes, though.
>>
It's weird how when the Energon universe started, it seemed like they were doing the Quintesson-built origin story from the cartoon but now we're back to the 13 primes again.
I wonder if it was planned from the start or if Void Rivals calling dibs on the quints is dictating some creative decisions in the tf book.

I first read that as the matrix of depression. Thats probably the one Huffer has.

Hey, now that AotP Megatronus I bought doesn't feel like a completely needless indulgence.
>>
>>153136871
He's going to emerge as BW Transmetal II Megatron.
>>
>>153150922
Yes?

>>153152136
Nah, Kirkman probably thought Beast Wars was stupid, and ruined transformers growing up.

Just like Warden did, right? Fuck off you tribalist bozo.

I only now noticed, that he only has one smokestack now.

...pathetic.

Elita got half the smokestacks along with the kids in the divorce.

the good news is that Prime's "downgrade" is a huge upgrade because he is now a SCANIA.

In all fairness, there's still room for a basic early G1 set up in Aligned that we never really see. Prime starts off some time after there's been some quiet from the last few years of battles. It's vague as to how it was like since it's also meant to be close enough to the movies set up to be familiar to kids who'd know that.
I remember one guy who liked to think that Prime was a loose alternate sequel to G1 Season 1 instead of the 86 movie. Then years later Earth Spark sort of runs with the idea of being a loose G1 continuation.

Optimus cant be anything european made in last 35 years
Look at his front,there should be separation between bumper and cab itself,thats where air suspension parts go
Thats why american truckers cream themselves over DAF,Scanias,MANs and volvos,they have separate air suspension for the cab and for the frame for extra comfort while driving,you can even adjust height of the cab in relation to frame
They made euro looking truck but even then we havent had a bumper that wasnt integrated into the cab since early 90s
Consult the diagram
And I havent read a single thing idw shat onto paper

Under the cab,built into the compartment in a frame ,If you want to work on it you need to unlock few things and the cab itself will bow forward
>>
>>153158546
Elita Prime is a 2018 retool of starscream (which proves that starscream is a bratty bottom bitch) and as for arcee...
They havent figured out what she turns into yet is my guess
(She will probably turn into a hover sportscar with guns)

Hello! Would you join the "Rodimus should be a Dakar Rally truck" church. Its free!
>>
>>153158667
So Elita Prime is the Power of the Primes you?
I hope we see her combine with Greenlight, Lancer, Moonracer and Novastar
>>
>>153158464
Anon I’m gonna be straight up, you know way more about trucks than the dudes who are drawing this and mainly want to draw robots.
>>
>>153158700
>My Agenda is going strong
Neat
>>153158723
Yeah but far as Im concerned the fembots are dead or MIA,we wouldve seen them earlier if they werent I reckon,then again you could say same about sunstreaker but I know that fucker is waiting for energon so he can say racial slurs
>>
>>153158700
No, I’m a Dekotora Rodimus truther, I’ve considered converting to customized racing truck Rodimus though
>>
>>153158782
>I’m a Dekotora Rodimus truther
Technically, og Rodimus looks like a dekotora in a way.
>>
>>153158763
I dont they just didnt bother to search up a schematic or two on google images,all you need to make this optmius more euro truckish is to make bumper smaller and non metallic and make the grill longer,going from the windshield thru the bumper
Good transformer design is when line between bot and vehicle is non existent and If you cant make the line non existent focus on the car part and then make the robot around it,that way you can guarantee that bot will be memorable by having a unique silhouette
>>
>>153158782
Good idea but I feel like it would fit more as a sidegrade for Rodimus if he relinquished the matrix but kept some of its power
Dakar truck makes more sense as a leader because pro racers,especially long distance ones are more calm,collected and disciplined as opposed to a young street racing punks (hot rod in 86 movie)
With a dakar truck you have character arc built into the altmode
(You could also make hot rod plug into a dakar shell to become rodimus if you tweaked both designs enough)
>>
>>153158834
Anon the fact that you know any differences at all tells me you know more.
I will guarantee you Dan Mora googled a trick and drew it fast and then drew like 5 pages for DC right after. It is what it is. Designs don’t really get specific pay for these comics so smart artists do the bare minimum. Especially after what happened with Don Figueroa
>>
>>153158929
The Dakar truck just looks too much like a supporting character, sorry man. The Energon Rodimus truck mode is much cooler, especially with the spoiler.

hey anon I'm working on a design for a G1/TFO style Chromia with a motorcycle/bike vehicle mode. Do you have any suggestions for really big bike I could use? I want her to retain her bulkier "armoured" look from G1 as much as possible.

asking because because you're clearly very knowledgeable on vehicles

You guys know it IS its own timeline, not connected to Prime and the books, right? It's been that for over a decade now.
>>153148462
The word is "canon", not "cannon". A cannon is a big gun.
And no, Transformers One is not canon to these comics, or even anything else. Transformers canon doesn't work that way. In fact, I can't think of an example that does.
>>153148496
That's the original, Dreamwave look of Megatronus (then just called The Fallen.)
>>153150922
...yeah? You were always supposed to be reading it. It was even the first comic released in this universe. Hot Rod and Springer and the Quints have been doing stuff over there.

I wish Optimus turned into Orion Pax instead of non prime Optimus, would love to see G1 Orion kick ass

should've turned into a Kei truck

Long story short, got jaded over spending so much time making designs workable for toys but never getting hired full time by Hasbro and only getting paraded for designs that would be turned into toys later.
The straw that broke the camels back for him was, at least according to him, drawing this Megatron design for a pitch that wasn’t picked up, only for the design to be used without his permission, or extra compensation for publishing it.
In animation there’s more delineation in who gets paid what, character design is a whole separate job. But in comics it’s all in one go list of the time. You wanna design new alt modes first a bunch of TFs? Cool, but don’t expect pay distinct from the page rate unless they’re upfront about it.

Aww, jeez, and he would have made such amazing toys because he had a gift for exquisite mechanical detail. What a bummer. That Megs design is fantastic, even in ant size.

I'm glad to see a return to the concept of Megatron being one in a line of leaders instead of being the first Decepticon. Something just feels smaller to me when it's just Megatron and Optimus' quarrel. Optimus and Megatron should be part of the most significant turns in the war, but themselves one in a line of past leaders
