From what I hear, Hot Rod converted to "spectralism" and Dark Rodimus colors symbolize a desire to kill somebody.

Rhyno posted:I need a "Getaway Was Right" shirt. No you don't. Also now looking through it, yeah I'm becoming more down on Lost Light. Especially for the points that this is an awful Jumping on Point and it's very much not about getting back the Lost Light. I realize that James Roberts probably never wanted to relaunch the series AS Lost Light, and this was probably always his plan but... I dunno, still feels wrong. Especially since I felt like we handled the Functionists. Like... that was the whole "Why Megatron Needs to Live" thing. "By the way the Terrible Future still exists you're just not in it." Is... Pretty awful. And I'm sorry but I'm not buying Cyclonus and Tailgates stuff in this issue. I'm only glad that, hopefully, I'm begging here. Let the Chromedome Rewind drama be done. I don't hate it, I just don't care anymore. Also... I feel like James Roberts doesn't just hate that he writes in a shared universe, but that there are other Transformers Writers at all with different ideas. I still like his writing, but I feel like he's starting to get an ego about it.

Hot Rod changing colors seems like it is purely for the purpose of confusing things. It's not even a proper reference to Shattered Glass since it misses the best part.

I would hope the Chromedome and Rewind story thread should be closed up at this point since they finished Rewind's quest for Dominus and chose Domey.

Spiderdrake posted:The person who claimed to see the real Rewind die was the oh so well written Overlord, so it's entirely possible he'll be back He has a new toy coming out? Roberts can't put his Toy's away? Wanting to completely invalidate the emotional weight and drama of that chapter? Feeling he needed another villain (which is probably why he's gone back to this Functionist Well)? I was forgiving to the extremely lackluster end to the DJD, but with the Functionist's being a thing again (Which is a weird turn anyway because it's not like anyone is a Secret Functionist, or that it was a recurring underlying theme.) I'm starting to wonder if he doesn't really know how to challenge his protagonists. This is the time arc again, except more hostile. Are we maybe going to learn what that repeating symbol we've been seeing that relates to the Knights of Cybertron is? Are we going to pick up refugee's from the functionist universe to add even more onto the cast of characters who quite frankly didn't need more adding onto. And why the functionist's again anyway? It might have been interesting to go to a universe where Megatron had won and succeeded. And thus he and Terminus could see what Megatron himself built if he'd defeated Optimus and retaken Cybertron? I guess ultimately I fail to see what any of this has to do with anything. The functionist's were not seeking to jump into other reality to spread their stupid beliefs, and even if they did they've been defeated in the main universe already. They'd hardly find a foothold on the diverse, multi-planet Cybertron Council of Worlds when loving Optimus Prime, Starscream and Soundwave are all around and not one of them would let them do anything. I know it's issue 1 and you can't judge a story by issue 1, and it could turn out that a lot of things occur and they wind up teleported back to the Lost Light at the end or something. And I really didn't like Anode, since she continues the trend of people from Caminus being nothing like people from Caminus when James Roberts writes them. And honestly just seems like a dick. You know when a book or a story introduces a new kid side kick with the intent on them being quirky and lovable by children and instead they're just obnoxious? that's what it felt like. I actually feel kind of bad now, I read it enjoying it, but now I'm just down on the whole thing. EDIT: Positivity  I really liked GI Joe's Revolution issues.

CAPT. Rainbowbeard posted:Till All Are One replaced Windblade. What exactly did you think I meant by feeling that they should have kept Windblade going for the five months, a time period which matches the number of released issues of Till All Are One, if not that I was suggesting that letting the Windblade to TAAO new #1 and name happen at the same time the other two ongoings got new #1s and names?

What easier way to show that the Council is evil than having Overlord work for them?

Kinda annoying because sirtoys was holding on to some missing parts from my Vortex's nose cone/weapon to send out with Onslaught but now he's like 5 months late and I will probably not get my missing parts

looks like my local wal-mart restocked the deluxes, so I got a Chromedome. However it looked like the 8 cases they opened had Chromey, Hardhead, Highbrow, Scourge, and Blurr. But no Wolfwire or Mindwipes, which sucks.
