Let's face it, Kirkman's Transformers is the quality they should have had from the start. Daniel Warren Johnson was a huge mistake, and I'm glad Robert has been fixing his wrongs.
>>153553620>is the quality they should have had from the startah yes nothing scream quality like "this is permanent death"
>>153553655>writer before you senselessly and violently slaughters the cast>able to bring back characters, but this cheapens deaths>actually establish a definitive way for them to die, giving death meaningWhat's the issue here?
>>153553620Nah. I was only ever really excited for the book under DWJ. His paneling and page layouts really intertwined with his writing to create a deliberate pacing with a lot of emotion. None of the replacement artist/writers have had that same synergy. It's still a decent book, but it doesn't really feel fresh or special anymore. Might as well just be IDW 3.0, now.>>153553759Bringing characters back to life just so they can die "the right way" is cringe. The cybertronians are at war. All of the deaths are going to be senseless. What worked was that DWJ actually embraced this and focused on how the other characters acknowledged and dealt with their feelings in the fallout. It wasn't just about giving each character a "meaningful" death for fans to write mini-blogs about on twitter.
>>153553996>What worked was that DWJ actually embraced this and focused on how the other characters acknowledged and dealt with their feelings in the fallout.I swear DWJ fans imagined a book that didn't exist past the first arc.
>>153553759just admit you're Robert Kirkman and move on you colossal faggot
>>153554031Calm down, Daniel. Why don't you make another sketch to blow up X?
I for one enjoy both dwj and kirkman runsBut kirkman has more funny shitPermament death is over the top and memeable sure but I like it in nick cage in face off wayWhats fucking hillarious is skywarps reaction to it being "FUCK YES WE EATING PEOPLE THIS IS WHAT I SIGNED UP FOR" being written over his faceSkybound run raised Skywarps stocks to the moonUnder dwj he was a funny psycho sadist with lines that go hard (prepare for void,worm) and kirkman reinforces it with small thingsCentury of Skywarp has just begun
>>153554031>>153554277kiss you fags then adapt Murder Falcon
>>153553759>what is wrong with Megatron looking at the audience and going and this time it'll will stick I swearJesus you're dumb, >actually establish a definitive way for them to die,they already had definitive ways to die before hackman decided ah nope actually they can be brought back still
>>153554838>brutally killing off a bunch of characters at the start of a universe totally didn't need to be undone and was actually heckin' neat!Why don't you kill yourself if you think this? Or are you scared of permanent death?
>>153555092>brutally killing off a bunch of characters at the start of a universeoh yeah the Transformers series was totally in danger of running low on characters to use, fucking retard>Or are you scared of permanent death?you're the one insisting everyone needs to be brought back from death kiddo
>>153553620I stopped reading when DWJ left
>>153555235>there's a lot of characters so just switch and swap them like they're all the sameThis is the dumbest take I've seen on Transformers in years.
>>153555286>putting words in my mouthpathetic you gave me no argument why those specific characters needed to live longer, this clearly just about which are your favorites you don't care about story just smashing your favorite toys together
>>153555331>you don't care about story just smashing your favorite toys togetherAnon, I'm literally against DWJ's run.
>>153555331NTA, but you implied that the characters that died didn't need to live because they could be replaced by other characters.
Kirkman feels like im reading a generic capeshit comic. No characters or moments feel like they have any impact, its all executed in the blandest way possible.
>>153555413>but you implied that the characters that died didn't need to live because they could be replaced by other characteranon stop being retarded I was replying to his emphasis on the at beginning of the universe
>>153553620>Megatron's boss>MegatronusNever liked that name>inb4 Primus/Prima/PrimacronThat was always stupid too
>>153555875You're still implying it here in this post as well.
Nah.
>>153553620Alright, make me excited about MagnusCee and ElitaPrime.
>>153555235>oh yeah the Transformers series was totally in danger of running low on characters to use, fucking retardYeah, why bother developing underutilized characters, when you can just write Jazz and Ratchet for bazillion time, fuckin retard
>>153553759Robert writes so much graphic shock value death with mass murderers being easily forgiven that he is the last person who would know its meaning
