Work at Skybound and got some shit for you guys good and bad. Good >>White Matt Tracker is not dead and will be joining/becoming a main character in Hama's GI Joe book. Hama is being forced to do this, as Hasbro wants to undercut complaints about Black Tracker and try and boost sales of Hama's book, which has been selling abysmally.(This is also why Lara Croft was put in ARAH not the Energon Universe GI Joe) Bad>> Tranny fucking Ratchet. Kirkman is going to resurrect Ratchet as a girl bot. And go full "I'm trans, I was a girl bot trapped in a boy bot body" with the storyline. It should also be noted that Kirkman fully intended for Arcee to be trans too in the current continuity as well. But Hasbro shut it down hard. Ugly: Hasbro has been working to unfuck the rights to the old MASK comics, including the UK exclusive comic which is the only place where the origin of MASK was told. BUT Kirkman is insisting the stories be colorized and in the case of Matt Tracker and his son, being digitally colored black for "continuity" with the current comic book. Also. Hickman REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY wants to do a Shattered Glass version of Forever Evil for the Energonverse. Hasbro is cockblocking him but Hickman REALLY fucking wants to do it
>>155145459And then, everyone clapped
>>155145459When has Hickman EVER expressed interest in Transformers?
>>155145459Alright alright, I see what's happeningYou're making a relatively safe bet>White Trakker on G.I. Joe Given its a sort of likely Classified crossover figure so when/if that'd announced you can then proceed to claim the rest of your post is legit
>>155145648MASK isn't getting classified figures. The toy rights are with Loyal Subject, who got the full master license for MASK.Also the Skybound/Classified relationship is the other way around in that Hasbro is dictating shit like the green plastic animal head shit has to show up in the Skybound comic. We are only getting off model EU Duke and Baroness because Hasbro doesn't want to make any of the other canon toy Duke figures and wants to recycle the Rattler Baroness figure
>>155145459>Ugly: Hasbro has been working to unfuck the rights to the old MASK comics, including the UK exclusive comic which is the only place where the origin of MASK was told.How about the UK GI Joe/Action Force comics? The Marvel run should be available to reprint, even if the earlier run isn't.
>>155145459Hasbro does not care about comic salesNobody cares enough about Matt Trakker to retroactively make the UK comics version of him black as wellMatt Trakker in ARAH would not make ARAH sell better
But who is Kirkman going to have raped in Transformers?
>>155145972Spike by Blackarachnia hopefully
