And I'm only kidding, though I'm pretty sure there are a not too small majority of fans out there for whom Tailgate becoming Prime and he and Cyclonus having ickle Cygate babies is the only way MtMtE can end.
For me? Everyone dying in stupid, pointless ways. Starting with Rodimus. Guy's gotta get got

Aren't the Scavengers great! But all this dying lark is a bit boring. There's so many interesting threads out there to be concluded: Spinister's savantism, Red & Rewind's UV neck notches, Francis Pharma, Whirl's attempted suicide (in the first issue), Delta Magnus & the Primal Vanguard, anything about Spoke & Lockstock, Ambulon is the leg of who? Sinister Grimlock, The five Luna 1's blah blah.
It's ace. Any one of those things is more interesting to me than seeing, I dunno, Mainframe get mashed!

Yeah, I've been wondering about that too. Here's one to wonder about: Would Alt-Rewind have the same theoretical mnemosurgery marks?Auntie Slag wrote:Yeah, it was back in Issue 13 when they went to fight Snap Trap's crew. There's a scene where Chromedome brings an unconscious Rewind on board calling for help, and amongst other things he mentions to First Aid that Rewind is allergic to UV light. That's where I'm getting it from.

I'm getting the impression that Megatron doesn't understand how the whole "pacifism" thing works. I mean, the reason why he had such an insane number of "flowers" on the Necrobot's world was because of how many deaths he'd ordered in battle, not just because of people he'd killed personally. So I'm not sure that refusing to personally kill anyone but still sitting on the bridge and directing his companions on how best to kill people really counts as turning over a new leaf for Megs. I mean, by that logic Osama bin Laden was a pacifist.
Hopefully that's touched on later.
Oh, and superpowered Tailgate can **** off.

Well, he did order 'no casualties'. Though given it's Whirl and Cyclonus he's talking...Warcry wrote:I'm getting the impression that Megatron doesn't understand how the whole "pacifism" thing works.

next Wednesday. Number 49 slipped I believe due to I think one of the artists on a future issue getting ill so they delayed 49 as a precaution, but it looks like the slack has been picked up, so to speakSummerhayes wrote:Sorry to be the idiot, but do we have a definite date for this yet?
Slipped to 9th March. Apparently
can I just quote this forever and ever and ever? Because that's what I'm going to doWarcry wrote:Oh, and superpowered Tailgate can **** off.

Oh yeah, they're good. I pay £3.15 for my copy from the shop, even though I know I could order it online from them for £2.65 or so. But I like to go in for it because it reminds me of when I was a kid going for my weekly Transformers comic from the newsagents.
Plus the guys at FP are really cool.
I'd love to do the voices of Tarn, Chromedome and Overlord. Did you know there's a site that turns MTMTE into an audio play? Its called The Audio Knights Theatre and they've done a pretty good job from the ones I've heard, especially when you have that issue out in front of you as they go along; adds a really cool dimension.
They're a bit behind, but I'm not surprised as it must be a mammoth undertaking!
Here's an excerpt from Issue 1.

Hey look, if I find a copy at my local I can get it for you and post it. They usually have previous issues of ex-RID lying around, presumably because the cats already got enough fresh litter. Sometimes there's an issue or two of a previous MTMTE hanging around looking fashionably hipster retro too.
If that doesn't sound weirdly stalkerish to you then its fine by me. I'd be able to check on Saturday!
[Edit] I know I was harping on about the Audio Knights thing, but listening back its not all that awesome. Turns out what really stuck in my memory was Chris McFeely's reading of the Megatron/Ravage sequence from about 10 issues ago. Its pretty awesome.
The comic is so dense it doesn't work as a dramatic reading straight off the page. Plenty of it would have to be reworded. The Knights did a segment featuring Magnus and he just drones on and on. Easy to read, a bit painful to listen to.
