Last time we read Dark Cybertron Prelude, now we begin the main event itself, Dark Cybertron. Originally published in alternating issues of More Than Meets the Eye and Robots in Disguise before being collected and republished in two volumes.Transform and roll out.Previous storytimes:>>156129498>>156144315>>156167927>>156179956>>156190526>>156211958>>156224613>>156236718
>>156250058>IDWs whole thing is just about the purple-headed one-eyed monster spreading his seedgross
>>156250183>T30 Starscream in stores now! Get yours for only $14.99 today!
>>156250331Is his pec a parking garage? That's a neat detail.
>>156250268I completely forgot that Bumblebee had that look for awhile. Best left forgotten, I think.
>>156250735>Scoop's targetmaster buddies in the crowdNeat
>>156251794I prefer Slag, and the bongs can fuck off
>>156251656>>156251676lol
>>156251911>I prefer Slag, and the bongs can fuck offAye, it's funny too because Slag seems like the last person who'd be bothered by his name being offensive.It seems a bit pointless too. Avatar the last Airbender never refrained from calling characters benders even though that's a slur in the UK
>>156252156Bye Hardhead>>156252131If anything I'd think he'd WANT an offensive name. The Dinobots are a bunch of assholes.
That's it for today. Come back next time for the rest of Dark Cybertron.
And here's the combined spash page for >>156250291>>156250331which I would've put together at the start if I caught it in time.
>>156252357Much obliged, OP.
>>156252357thanks, op
>>156251911it's nothing to do with us, it's the japs trying not to cause offence
>>156250937oh, Starscream
It is all downhill from here
>>156250596I think it's a recreation of his Goldbug look
>>156254496it's been downhill for some time already
>>156254496I find it hard to describe how much I want to kill Brainstorm and maim like 80% of the Lost Light crew
>>156254662Yeah mentioned something about gold plating when doing repairs
>>156250268>>156250596>>156254662>>156255707Hasbro put out a toy using his IDW Ongoing design, then redid it as Goldbug around the time of Dark Cybertron, telling IDW to work it in. A lot of the characters/bodies seen during Dark Cybertron and the recent group of Metroplex-focused Spotlights were because they had toys coming out at the time (sometimes with those comic issues packed in, depending on the toy and region)
>>156250019Skybound ever going to reissue the IDW run? Even the regular trades go for obscenely high prices these days
