    Many fights and revelations later:

    I didn´t know Starscream was cold constructed.


    More generally. What is it with power and making mechs lose their marbles?

    What gets me every time is that the way Starscream says 'Megatron?' as he's dying a slow painful death without any obvious cause :3c MY FAVORITE. Also the way Soundwave displays actual emotion over Ravage.

    and also i love those teeny tiny seats just chilling there in starscream's chest

    I will have to reread that chapter when actually awake methinks. But yeah I was wondering. Is he blaming Megatron for it somehow or is he asking him for help (mercy?)

    Given exrid to that point, and Starscream's eventual actions (it's Good Shit that you'll hit soon in mtmte, issue 28/29ish), I read that as him blaming Megatron! After the spotlight: megatron events and the battered housewife reaction he had in exrid, I get the impression that he pretty much always expects Megatron to try to hurt him these days.

    ...considering Megatrons track record wrt hurting him I can´t blame him.

    Are you in Dark Cybertron? Do you mean Windblade? Her introduction is a little ehhhhhhhhh, in my opinion, but I think that's more a function of the shaky DC writing than anything else. I like her a whole lot in her miniseries/ongoing/taao! And the series in general does a lot of cool stuff with the colonies, and she's the entry point for them to make their way into the plot.

    No this is a very large guy called Thunder something. Not Thundercracker. An Autobot who is the best at all the things and pisses Rodimus off.

    THUNDERCLASH! I love. He is definitely a mary sue, but it's deliberate, and that even sorta-serves a plot purpose later. He's only a one-off for now, but he shows back up in issue 40-ish! And honestly, even without plot purposes, I just love love love the way he completely torques rodimus off. I really oughta see if I can write some pitchrom happening there.

    THUNDERCLASH!
    He's the transformer embodiment of this joke from an old british sci fi sitcom called Red Dwarf

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I´m deeply amused by how Ultra Magnus being a little guy in a suit turned out to be real. Also Matryoshka UM.
    Also wondering if Rodimus admitting he was in on it mean Drift get pardoned now? I mean otherwise Rodimus will kinda have to exile himself.

    Reading DC 2. Starscream keeps being sad. Also Shockwave is not engaging in literal chewing of scenery.

    So pardon me for resurrecting this thread, but I know you were worried about starscream's character arc, and he got to be really cool and do a good in the most recent issue of Til All Are One!

    If you want to skip the rest of mtmte, the order goes Windblade v01, Windblade v02 (combiner wars is optional) then TAAO 1 - 5
