Spoilers for MTMTE 45 and 46. Really glad you guys are enjoying this! I don't draw and I don't write beyond rping so this is like, my fandom contribution. Spoiler: Scavengers I don't think that guy is coming back with our money.
Have people been reacting to it or the preview? It's due to come out tomorrow, if people are reading the whole thing now it sounds like it's been leaked.
It's been released in some timezones-- I know Herz has gotten her hands on it at least. Not sure if that was intentional though!
Well, it's 1 am here in England and it's not out yet (I'm a bit worried about this one though. Ever since purple Rodimus was revealed I've got the feeling that its going to be a reaction to Megatron having this big heroic death and I don't want to know if I'm right) (Especially not at this time at night cause if it was out I would be reading it and sleepiness be damned) (although it looks like I'm being kept awake by robofeels either way)
Someone posted this image It could definitely be a timezone thing though. I'm gonna have to stay away from tumblr until I can get my hands on a copy >>;. I REALLY don't want to be spoiled at all.
TFP headcanon: Megatrons pointy teeth are a remnant of being a gladiator. He had then sharpened to look more intimidating in the pits.
Ooh! I love that. What if the other decepticons copied him out of respect, and that evolved into the whole decepticon aesthetic of sharp and pointy on everything. Heh, he's at least as good of a glorious fandom leader as Hussie.
Some songs I think fit characters/ships. Again TFP. Knockdown (KnockoutxBreakdown): Heavens On Fire, Kiss Arcenid (Arcee/Arachnid): I Can´t Decide, Scissor Sisters Dreadwing: Hurricane Years, Alice Cooper Starscream: Sympathy For The Devil, Rolling Stones. What Starscream wishes he was like. Megscream (Megatron/Starscream. Not necessarily romantic, their canon relationship works TW for abuse from victims POV): Vicious Circle, even closer, Say I Matter. Both by Rachel Rose Mitchel. Yesgood -steals headcanon and runs off with-
More Lighthearted/silly: Starscream was probably dancing to Cell Block Tango after he took over because he thought he´d killed Megs.
There's a person on my Dash who is getting nonspecifically mad about issue 55 and I'm VERY worried. I haven't seen any spoilers but, oh god what if this is Act 7 all over again :( edit: The issue just dropped on google play in my neck of the woods. I'll have to stay off tumblr until I acquire a copy in some...way.
I just wasted 4 dollars on a really low rez, drm protected version from Google-Play because I'm an obsessed robot raccoon >>; Spoiler: mtmte: 55 So much happened! I'm not sure what to think. Does anyone else feel like it was rushed? I feel like Megs is going to depart the crew now that he has Terminus back? Also disappointed that Dominus didn't survive, but I guess that's alright. WHY DID THEY KILL THE CAT? Soundwave dealing with Ravage's death broke me >>;...and then the tableflip callback made me giggle. Laughing while crying isn't something fiction has made me do since Homestuck was updating and I appreciate the hell out of it for that. The necrobot planet being the mold for Cybertron is really intriguing. I wonder if we're going to get some kind of hint of Rung's purpose during the next issue? Also still hoping that Cy's revelation back in issue 53 pays off somehow, sometime soon. He disappeared early on in 54, then popped back up for some crowd shots in 55. I know there was a lot going on, I don't feel like they could have spared the focus on him on top of everything else. But that was such a great scene, I want something to come out of it. Also, Nickel buggered off with Deathasauras, They'll make a great team. *Megatron being exasperated by the Tarn's need to have TWO fusion canons gave me strength. It annoyed me that they had to waste 5 whole pages on that GI Joe bs, this issue really could have used the extra space. I can't wait to hear what everyone else thought!
Spoiler: 55 oh god I was right he's going for the sacrifice I didn't want to be right It's a whole lot of characters I don't recognise! Tarn is Glitch? That... actually makes a lot of sense with his powerset thank you rodimus and your tendency towards really stupid heroics Oh god Ravage I thought he was safe I didn't want anyone to be fridged and especially not him So where exactly are you planning to go Megs? None of you have access to a spaceship right now Terminus is back, which is great, because I don't think that there are ANY other characters in the entire series that could make him listen to reason right now Dominus is confirmed dead. I was hoping otherwise but I can see why. Did they just blow up the planet? I hope they didn't blow up the planet. I definitely agree that this felt rushed, hopefully the next issue will be a catchup? Or are we going straight into Titan adventures? I can't remember that interview very well.
mood: SCREAMING Spoiler: mtmte 55 first of all FUCK THAT GALACTIC COUNCIL GUY I HOPE YOUR SHIP CRASHES YOU PIECE OF ANIMATE GARBAGE WHO HOLDS THE IDEALS HIGHER THAN THE RESULTS YOU ARE NOT AS IMPORTANT AS YOU THINK YOU ARE ...nickel nickel are you defecting <33 oh ravage i love you <3 literally me rn irl, just with chips (went out and bought some before the issue hit): megs, what you planning?

OKAY OKAY OKAY MTMTE 55 Spoiler: mtmte 55 I still wanna marry the cover like holyshit it is so pretty That twist about Getaway working with the GC and Overlord being their fault we got in the preview is still DELICIOUS THE PANIC BUBBLE THING IS STILL SO BRILLIANT though it is concerning that Megs took it from trailcutter like that like holy shiiiit YES YES FINALLY GOD I WAS WAITING FOR NICKEL TO SAY FUCKIT TO ALL OF THIS I AM SO GLAD I love that overlord is more of an adult about this than Tarn. God fucking dammit Tarn. Also wow the rest of the DJD actually stick with Tarn despite his obvious fuckery? Okay. Brainstorm and ravage snarking at eachother GIVES ME LIFE Oh my god. SMACKDOWN TIME Tarn is going to cry. oh my good lord megatron what in the name of fuck did you do the djd's FACES I am giggling gleefully they are SO SCARED. But goddammit Megs this won't end well for you will it? oh no ohhhhhhh no Megatron NO Ohhhh this gives me goosebumps what a great and terrifying way to reveal their names who the FUCk are u guys ... WAIT THE LOOK LIKE NON-PURPLE DJD DUDES I AM SUDDENLY VERY SCARED ABOUT WHERE THIS IS GOING "I'm afraid Getaway had the right idea: No mercy!" this is so many levels of wrong I can't even Tarn's name is Glitch and this tells me nothing but ROLLER IS ALIVE APPARENTLY? nonononononono NO NOPE NO NOT THOSE FACES DAMN YOU BOTH YOU FUCKING ASSHOLES OH GOD BLESS THANK YOU oh my gOD don't play with my feelings like this JRO oh my god the way he holds onto Rodimus' hand NO NO OH MY GOD NO NO YOU CAN'T OH MY FUCKING GOD HE DID SOUNDWAVE IS GOING TO KILL YOU ALL OH NO OH NO megatron that is NOT the right reaction please chill JeSUS CHRIST IT'S tERMINUS okay i am crying like for real oh my god this is hurting me in the best of ways but I am so glad Megs has someone to cry on oh wow censerre was too smart. and too good. bless him.

I don't need more humans.
what the fuck! Spoiler: mtmte 55 I guess this actually meets my hopes for Glitch coming back, and makes perfect sense, but Glitch :( why do dead people keep showing up, though, I'm very confused wtf is this G.I. Joe shit at the end, I don't like it. no one caaaaaaaaares
Spoiler: MTMTE 55 HAHAHHAA GOOD ON YOU NICKEL, GOOD ON YOU DEATHASAURUS fuck u tarn okay thank u for asking that question (and explaining why no one has tried to duplicate the generator) it would make sense that part of being an outlier is just. obscene amounts of energy. either of forcefields, or glitch shit, or exploding and causing everyone to briefly have super powers-- it can't be done by regular mechs because they don't have the energy output but megs IS a .1%-er I wonder if that affects outlier abilities too???? OH NO WAIT THAT BLACK HOLE IN HIS CHEST GLAD TO SEE THAT COMING BACK TY JRO Tarn... isn't Roller????????????? AAAAAAAAAAAAAA SOUNDWAVE NO THE BABY NOOO BABY NO AAAA IM SAD that's a good way to bring the briefcase back too, glad to see that wasn't just abandoned either OKAY WELL. THAT MAKES "LETS SAVE THE ORGANICS" A LITTLE BETTER BUT. NOT BY A HUGE AMOUNT. WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT CLIFFHANGER
