TFARCHIVE FORUMS

This makes me curious about what the first pitch for AHM was, and how the story was originally meant to play out. I know the sudden jolt into continuity in the second half was supposedly planned all along, but the fact that there are loose ends like the Matrix that need to be wrapped up in extra iss...

I'd say that the IDWverse is more complex, but not in a good way at all - complex isn't a good thing in itself. There are too many subplots, and too little advancement for most of them, or at least too little natural advancement. It's more convoluted, and there's been a distinct lack of focus throu...

Got my copy in the mail amazingly early. Very lovable, if rushed, wrap up.

I wish you hadn't reminded me of that, it's one of the more depressing things about the turn that the comics have taken. I think a lot of my interest in the eventual ongoing will depend on whether or not the author(s) runs with AHM's super-simplified version of the war and factions. I have a hard ti...

I seriously doubt it's a legal thing. You'd have to be a hell of a ****ing muppet to get a fatal head injury on skis unless you were doing mad jumps and shit. I mean, I didn't even realise it was possible without flying off a mountain or something until this one managed it. I fell over all the time...

The first two pages of the AHM preview seem to me like a glimpse at what the story might have been back when we were still speculating about it--showing Earth under Megatron's rule, people coping with the New World Order and terrifying giant robots--so I like them. Spike's appearance dispels that, o...

But you miss out on the fun of hating it, too.

I'm willing to bet a lot of intense fear of sharks has to do with Jaws.

They died on the way back to their home planet.

Does that mean 5 servings of fruit and 5 servings of vegetables per day? Fruit would be pretty easy, I think I get near that most days, but 5 servings of vegetables would be a pain. Either you'd have to learn a lot of veggie-themed recipes, or get used to eating them raw. And buying a good variety o...

I don't think anyone does. Though, yes, corny dialogue is corny dialogue no matter how well you pretty it up, it's so over the top and ridiculous that I really don't understand why people are taking it so damn seriously. You know, sort of in the same camp the Shattered Expectations April Fools joke...

Is it really such a big deal that the characters do or don't die? I've been thinking it over, and I think the only time it really bothered me was with Ironhide in Devastation, and that's because it was so built up. Otherwise, I'm pretty OK with accepting that Transformers in general are extremely to...

I think some fans are compelled to get Transformers comics, no matter how they like or dislike them. Also, hope springs eternal. I got 7 due to the praise it was getting from other readers, and ended up disliking it anyway. The focus on the name comes more from the buildup, the opening issues and th...

I thought the two episodes were enjoyable, though there wasn't any memorable, shockingly weird reveal like the past season premiers have had. I would've liked the on-island stuff a little more if there hadn't been so many of the standard guns-and-shouting jungle confrontations that are in almost eve...

Howso? Somewhere between 3000 and 4000 years ago, mankind left Kobol. The 13th tribe, who left first and went in the opposite direction to the others, settled on Earth, then two thousand years ago their robotic creations when Skynet on their asses. Two thousand years later, the other colonies creat...

Well, it's not smoking. Kup is just teaching kids to walk around with lumps of metal between their teeth.

and here was me thinking this was a thread on the theory that the human race appears to be de-evolving. Based on the fact that the more stupid and lazy people in the world tend to stay at home and have lots of children whilst the more intelligent generally have jobs and leave having children later ...

It'd also mean there was a point other than attention-whoring to Spotlight: Wheelie... What's wrong with just having a self-contained story? The advertising around it may have been a little silly, but it was a nice break from the spotlights that only exist to loop around into the main story (S:Opti...

I like bats, they're neat animals that you rarely get to see. This summer I discovered there are at least a few living in my neighborhood, which is delightful.
