It's strange to see how one could be so excited back then when a new TF comic came out, and how annoyed one can be when a new TF comic comes out these days... <br />Seriously, when a brand new $ 3.99 comic completely pales in comparison to a comic that came out two decades ago, you're doing something very wrong as a publisher... right? <br />I'm talking about IDW's G1 ongoing, by the way, despite the fact that I love Guido's artwork.<br /><br />In any case, the opening pages of this issue (together with the contrast in Prime's actions) are some of the best I've ever seen in a comic (and seeing Ironhide, Jazz and Wheeljack again, as well as Prime's pre-Powermaster form, after such a long time was just fantastic). Plus, the final splash page of Galvatron is probably one of the best in the entire Marvel series. The Unicron splash page in # 74 comes close, but is ruined by Wildman trying to be funny by drawing toilet doors just under Unicron's "ribcage"... :PHanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03442388706616569265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9163141447241149534.post-67798936270569558222010-10-17T04:57:45.174-07:002010-10-17T04:57:45.174-07:00I have to say, I don't get it.
