>>156267587Good luck making a toy that can actually take that third mode, Hasbro
>>156267595
>>156267579Oh yeah, I can already smell the 4 digit price tag of this toy.
>>156267526>I have awoken with terrible hunger for autobot sparkWE ARE BACK TO EATING PEOPLEWERE BACK>>156267579Thanks Op,what do you think about megatrons new design ?
>>156267579>Turns into a retarded gun againWhy didn't they fix this It's dumb and makes no sense
>>156267579Devastator's face looks familiar.....
>>156267663It makes senseHe can concentrate all his power into one taskNo need to aim or move or strategiseJust pure destruction without worrying about recoilImagine power of superman put into a laser gun and its wielded by a top tier marksmanShit could take out justice league satelite in one shot
>>156267643It's cool, I'd like to see a toy of it one day.>>156267663Retarded faggot, turning into a Combiner-sized gatling gun is awesome.
>>156267548>That fucking car form for Carly>Spike really wanting his own mech suitMan I forgot Kirkman can be pretty funny
>>156267802The exo-suit has always had that car form.
She zoomin
>>156267579Radikal.
Next issue is the last Kirkman issueHe is leaving with a bang
>>156267825That must be really inconvenient to use.
>>156267957He's solicited all the way to Marchhttps://leagueofcomicgeeks.com/comics/series/168170/transformers
>>156267957>>156268023Yeah anon what are you talking about
>>156267957Huh???
>>156268064>>156268023>>156268074i thought it was going to end next month because of the collection solicitations, but now i remembered that void rivals arc on earth begins next year.
>>156267579this whole issue was just 'meh'
yay, another issue where nothing happens
they're going to kill off Cliffjumper and bring back Bumblebee, aren't they
>>156268336WrongMEGACHAD has mogged everyone and made autobitches homeless>>156268344Nah,there seems to be a concentrated effort on making bumblebitch less in your faceHes a villian in cyberworld season 2,that Optimus Awakening and hes dead hereI wouldnt be suprised if Cliffjumper got reformated into new body down the line (hopefully a rally car)He already changed from a chibi porsche 924 into some vaguely asian/european modern compact sportscar here
>>156267542>megatron abusing soundwavedamn, that doesn't happen often. usually megs sticks to his day one bro. he really has changed....
>>156268463I hope he bangs Carly. Kirkman likes to cuck protagonists, Spike losing Carly to the cybertronian d would be a crazy twist.
>>156269034Anon you have been saying this shit since issue 1Its not happening,kirkman mightve lost his cuck fetish after he got married
>>156267579>oh no, hes turned into a nerf gun again
>>156269127WorseHe turned into gatling laser from fallout 4Hes gonna make optimus run at 15 fps on consoles
>>156269034More like he’ll lose to the cybertronian clit of Arcee.
>>156267977Not really,its like riding a bobsled but with steering via joysticksIf she was fat or pregnant then sure but this is simple enough and designed to travel short distancesIt does make me wonder if we will see pretenders in some formIdw made autobot pretender shells into power suits so I reckon that shockwave and megatron might harvest some whales to make a terrorist unit of sorts
>4th mode, where its the gun mode, but the legs fold down and the minigun can walk around
It just all feels so boring, you can draw panels of big fists punching with big sfx but nothing really feels like it has any impact. The reveal of the new Megatron to the autobots was lame as fuck he just said the most generic Megatron dialog nothing was different from any other fight.
>>156269287Its pretty shit, yeah. I like that he announces his new name, showing off his new huge and powerful body.......but the first thing he does is backhand bitchslap Soundwave, THEN bitchslap backhands Optimus(on the very same page), then proceeds to start punching. Oh nooooooooo.Like what the fuck is even going on.
>>156269287That's how I feel since the start of this series. Sometimes the action scenes are well-made, but it feel like it's never anything more. Just endless punching with the same few characters, one-liners and commands and the same bland backgrounds. They can only build-up to so many cliffhangers with upgraded superbosses that threaten Optimus with the next battle until it gets boring. Genuinely wonder what the core idea even is and how Kirkman intents to develop this. It can't be just "punches and explosions" for 200 issues. It feels like they were scared of slow scenes because character focused issues, adventures, lore focused little arcs or anything that isn't fights might be seen as boring. If someone desires endless action without proper there are enough decent FPS to play nowadays.
>>156268998Soundwave is legit probably gonna defect. He's been getting fucked over and over again by the Cons while Optimus keeps extending the hand of friendship.
>>156270046He's too much of a believer. If something happens, I'd expect it would Decepticon splitting into two groups.
>>156269156>NVtranny gets the weapon wrongHe turned into Quake 1 Laser Cannon
>>156270111Three, Starscream just kidnapped a bunch of sparks. Now a controversial option would be solo merc work over on the GI Joe side, have Soundwave do ops for whoever can keep him and his pets charged with Energon
Cripes this was a fast read. Not sure if thats a good thing.
>>156269287It's got no heart.
>>156267475So Rex will be the official decepticon leader title like Prime is for the autobots?
>>156270375Thats apparently what Kirkman is aiming for. Doubt Hasbro will embrace it.
>>156267531I genuinely hate this fusion canon
>>156270410At first I didn't like but it looks like the railgun fork can be use as a melee weapon so it will look rad when we see him stabbing someone with it for the first time
>>156270410It's a rail cannon not a fusion cannon
I'm disappointed Megatronus Rex didn't start spamming missiles from his shoulders
>>156270129No you retardQuakes Las Cannon had 3 barrels that retracted after shooting the laser like m2 browning would (No idea why)This is either an energy gatling or those three prongs will work like forks to focus energy and it will be an energy cannon of sortsI think fall of cybertron had something similar>>156270542Close combat engagement,I reckon he has them to chase down fleeing combatants or to interrupt the enemy by making them take coverThey also could be speakers from which he can play decepticon combat playlist for extra morale boost
>>156270218Starscream isnt a decepticon anymore I thinkFree agent,he got beaten to death,caused a civil war of sorts till blind megatron arrived and then disobeyed a direct order from the big cheese himself by blowing his shit smoove offHe doesnt even have combaticons and I expect that skywarp would try to eat him for megatrons approvalWe might see repeat of animated\prime with a clone program since he stole sparksHe also just might be responsible for dinobots coming online
>>156269287Still better than idw
>>156267455He's huge!
>>156267455Man this is supposed to be an even bigger Megatron entrance than issue 21 and yet I feel absolutely nothing watching this unfold, it's baffling how Kirkman took the time to introduce a legitimate way to kill these guys 10 full issues ago and yet he couldn't be bothered to make any of that "PERMANENT DEATH" nonsense matter now where it's most important on top of retroactively making Slingshot's death harder to take seriously since him not getting cannibalized means his body's just out there waiting to be fixed and no one cares enough to address that.At least Jason Howard's art continues to look impeccable.
>>156271746Slingshot probably got taken for study by someone,probably cobra Cons couldve taken him for spare parts too and hes in the corpse pileNobody would leave an alien corpse to just rot,especially if you can repurpose the corpse into a combat machine or use it for researchThey were on the run from cons so there was probably a gap of few days between chicago battle and attempted retrival
>>156267475This feeling like some deviantart shit
>>156267503One of the most Kirkman pages of all time
>>156267808>>156267802Daniel called it his trans-form
>>156268336>>156267526no look it's the fight that's happening because everybody's retardedMegatron was literally dying and being dragged away when Elita showed up, and now she's lost the fucking matrix on Cybertron because she didn't kill Decepticons even tho the stakes are PERMANENT DEATH and Megatron's back in a more retarded form than ever because Prime and Elita had a retard fight and all the other Autobots just shrugged and said "yeh"you can tell Kirkman's a WWE fan but honestly, you'd hope he could come up with some better plots or at least some ringside cheesecake
>>156269287Yeah, it says a lot that Megatron felt way more intimidating and like a threat just showing up and with one-arm than he does now. I think a lot of it is that, during DWJ's run, it was consistent in being dour and downright vicious. Every fight was brutal, you had bots on both sides fighting tooth and nail while missing limbs and wires hanging out. The violence was callous and cruel, as decepticons gleefully caused chaos with absolute zero mind paid towards the collateral damage of what they were doing, not to mention those like Starscream that outright sought to cause more. You genuinely did feel like anyone could be taken out of commission in any fight, and even if they could be repaired, you'd have those like Jetfire that ended up in a nightmarish existence out of necessity. The idea of the autobots being on their last legs and barely surviving permeated every issue.In this, you've got a lot of dumb back and forth as it's like ooo here's Megatron and he's got PERMANENT DEATH NOW!!!! and his new MEGATRONIUS REX form, and instead he's got more kid gloves on than ever before. If anything, it's almost like he made Megatron too much of a threat so now there has to be contrivances and pissing about to not completely knock pieces off the board too soon into the new story, and it all sticks out like a sore thumb as a result. Then there's also the fact that this situation only has risk because Kirkman did a Kirkman to have Elita split the group despite this being meant to be the Autobots' comeback, but I guess that only gets maintained long enough to take the emotional impact out of things like Jetfire being restored.
>>156272257Its because status quo, and not being allowed to kill main popular characters. If you could kill off main characters, the war would be over in a day.
>>156272257>you can tell Kirkman's a WWE fan but honestly, you'd hope he could come up with some better plots or at least some ringside cheesecakeIt's funny, because DWJ wears his love for wrestling on his sleeves, but he didn't come up with this hacky bullshit
>>156269287>>156272285The first big arc was full of introspection and building up the conflict. We saw what all the characters were thinking about the situation and what the stakes were. We had the humans reacting to the invasion, beaten down autobots rallying behind prime, and batshit decepticons trying to figure what the fuck they were even doing anymore, all under the shadow of Megatrons return. Now Kirkmans here and the humans are irrelevant, the autobots are just reacting to the plot, and the decepticons are taking a backseat to the new megatron plot line which has already gone completely off the rails. All so we can focus on even more action which is significantly worse than the action we were already getting. So I really have to ask, why the FUCK didn't skybound/image move heaven and earth to keep DWJ on this book when it was already a breakout hit?
>>156267565>same superion that fought two combiners while down on an arm to the point of crippling one of them is now jobbing to a starved devastator while in top shape
>>156272257>>156272295Inside of you there are two wrestling fansOne loves retarded stories and other loves yummy moves that look like gymnastics
>>156272711I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that was stupid.
>>156267542>it's a pimp named slickback>you have to say the whole thing
>>156267484What a fucking dork
Damn, I remember in the early days being excited every month for the new transformers comic, that image was going to put transformers on the right track. But, now I couldn't careless about this comic and the energon universe as a whole.
